Starting series on downshifting and reshifting

Hi Steemians,
Today you get a question: I wanna know who of you have lived in a city, but then moved to a smaller city/village? What was your experience - was it worth it or not? What new perspectives has it given you on life?

My mission is to explore alternative lifestyles to the 9-5 job and this is the start of my blog series on downshifting and reshifting. Examples are the digital nomad lifestyle (there are consulting companies popping up that help you start), working less hours a week by outsourcing and making real use of 80/20 rule (Tim Ferriss & co) and living in an ecovillage.

Based on interviews with first-hand experiencers, I'll write about

what inspired people to make the move
what were the obstacles
how they did it practically
how it changed their life
etc

Are you eager to know more or wanna help out? Already the 4th of November I'm going with a curious team to a magical place translated as the Strait of Stars, or Stjärnsund in Swedish. If you want to be a part of the trip, suggest the questions to ask below in the comments section!

Stay tuned and peace / Anton
