Why I Chose To Live Rural - One Year In English Countryside | Slow Living Spring to Winter

[@Tiogar60]

You are smart. This world is overly focused on wealth, success, pleasure, activity. But none of these give us lasting fulfillment. Spending time in nature, being with a community, raising a family. These are the things that feed our souls.

[@farinaceaclover]

This was so calming to watch. The landscape where you live is breathtaking and serene. I knew at the age of 17 I wanted to live in a small town. I grew up in a mid-sized city and I didn't like it. All my friends were making plans to move to larger cities. I got married 2 weeks after my 20th birthday and we moved to a very rural area, that was 37 years ago. We traded sirens and traffic noise for birds singing and chirping. There are two owls that hoot at night right outside the window just when I am turning in to sleep. This is where I belong. 🦉

[@IamDaria]

This sounds divine! Living a beautiful life surrounded by nature and birdsong is just the most wonderful thing there can be!

[@mangojewel889]

I felt the same way. I hate the fast moving city. It can be fun to travel to occasionally but I know I wouldn’t wanna live there. Doesn’t fit my personality

[@janiec3915]

I live in a rural area. The houses are too close together but our property backs up to a state park, so we get to share our backyard with all kinds of wildlife. While baking bread today, I watched the snow fall and the birds, squirrels and bunnies share the nuts, seeds and veggie scraps I threw out for them to feast on. As an anxious person, it was calming for me, and also a reminder of how blessed and abundant I am. I feel very fortunate to live where I do. I love your beautiful videos. The scenery in this one is quite spectacular and breathtaking. Your videos are also a wonderful reminder for me to appreciate what I have. Thank you very much.

[@stephenwignall7199]

Honestly, these are some of the best shot, edited and truly beautiful videos. I'm recovering from heart surgery, and rewatching your channel is helping me immensely. Your poetic words as much as the divine visuals! Thank you so much Daria, for letting us share this journey of yours.

[@yabkakundi9065]

these videos of yours are as if I am talking to my own self. I am in the process of healing and your content is so relevant to what really matters in life. May be god sends your content to many people like me to sooth their hearts. Your videography skills are just so above average. Keep it up!

[@lirongzhu9906]

I just moved from Boston to live in a German village out of a city of fairy tales. It's been 6 months and I love it:)

[@alisonsneed3707]

I don’t know how you found SO MANY great locations and flushes of naturalized woodland flowers go one video.

[@IamDaria]

Thank you to every single one of you for supporting me on this journey! 😊 Now that you've seen it through my eyes - what is your favourite season? 🌿

[@j.e.migdal]

forever summer! what is the book with the beautiful handwriting and drawings?

[@farinaceaclover]

My favorite season is Autumn, with spring a very close second.

[@eveinu2159]

It's autumn

[@OnelineadaywithLaura]

Winter ❤️🥰

Verano🏖️ y otoño 🍁🍁, aún que vivo en el Caribe siempre es verano 🏖️, un saludo cordial desde Santo Domingo Rep Dominicana 🇩🇴🇩🇴

[@MoniHaack]

Sie haben ein Oscar verdient. Wunderschöne Aufnahmen.

[@parambhatty998]

All these years past I wondered & wandered if there is any soul who could capture the infallible beauty & serenity of English Countryside !! I finally feel that I have arrived at my dream destination through your you tube videos….the consonance of nature & synergies of the quietude lends to evince absolute tranquility to mind, body and soul ! I have never visited UK but since childhood, the innate propensity towards all things English has been basis of my foundation as an Officer & a Gentleman. Thank You ❤

[@myvelvetlife]

I love your shots, they remind me of fairy tales! 😍

[@isabellamarie510]

This is making me miss my hometown! I grew up with four stunning seasons surrounded by nature and similar scenery in the northeast of America. I now live in Miami with nonstop artificial light and hustle and bustle. I love both lifestyles but surely would love to step out into a silent woodsy road every now and again!

[@IamDaria]

Both can be so good for their own reasons, right? 😊 Sometimes I wish I lived somewhere warm and always sunny too. But then looking at all these seasons I can’t bring myself to do it!

[@massigan5785]

The beauty of her videos is immense, I bow before her and those who help her make them, they have the magical atmospheres of poetry, art, literature, cinema... all this contained in about ten minutes that warm the heart and the soul.. many thanks and congratulations! (from Italy)

[@mirayozgecengiz]

I've been following since fall, I've also watched your old videos too and what you share is very calming and soothing for me😌 I don't know why I cried in the "winter" part but spring is still my favorite🌺 I admire your lifestyle, just watching it makes me happy so thanks for sharing💝

[@marjankiersolas3896]

Hi Miss! I’m a subscriber since last year, I hope you are not tired from running. 😊

[@CoriesaysrelaxASMR]

Can't believe these places are real and not made with CGI 😍😍 also, it's such a beautiful thing to see that seasons as we know them are still real in some places! Here in Spain we barely have spring and fall anymore 🥲

[@ricardodemattos8490]

Congratulations for all the videos! 👏👏 May there be many! 🐚 It's good to remember that there are people whose thoughts are close to ours. 🌹

[@sue3788]

Hello and blessings from Japan. I love your beautiful videos, Thank you for sharing❤❤❤

[@javiersanchezmejia2350]

Wonderful video l like when l see sheep in your videos amazing

[@jazibayounus5493]

I guess this is what I was searching for my entire life I feel like I have a same nature like you , l love to explore nature and to live in countryside to enjoy those beautiful moments in nature and I hope one day I will be able to live this life like you ❤

[@IamDaria]

❤️

[@beyzadundar4519]

I guess it's one of the best videos I've ever seen on KZbin... Appreciating your work 💕

[@martavazquez4808]

You've been describing my soul, beauty chaser. Mesmerizing scenes❤❤

[@vlad-mundi]

What an amazing summary of a whole year living somewhere rural. It's definitely different to a life in a city and it's amazing to see how much English nature actually changes through seasons! It often feels that it's evergreen but that couldn't be more wrong 😅 Absolutely stunning and thank you for sharing the story of your journey so far!

[@IamDaria]

England definitely has a less noticeable change between say late summer and beginning to mid autumn, or late autumn and all of winter. But seasons are still noticeable! I love that I have all these videos to look back at though 🥰 Thank you so much!

[@colleenwestbrook8848]

Omgosh. What a magical place you live in. You are so lucky! Wish there was some place like that where I could move to. ❤

[@onepartwild]

That was so beautiful. i have to watch and listen again and again!

[@cathylynnpietranton]

Lovely video. My favorite is Autum and then Winter. Such beautiful countryside.Thank you ❤️

[@TheAniway]

That was so peaceful and soothing 💚❤️🧡🤍

[@themagic8481]

What an absolutely gorgeous video. Thank you.

[@dougmacmillan1712]

Gorgeous! It has a Victorian feel to it. You have a knack of capturing the beauty of the areas you portray. 21 years ago we bought 13 acres in a rural area and built a house. We moved from the suburbs to here. There's 200 acres behind us that is in a conservancy, therefore it will not be developed. We are far away from the noise of town and traffic and can clearly hear our hummingbirds on our porch feeders. Stage 1 was moving, but continuing with our careers. When Covid hit we entered Stage 2, where we were able to telework from the coziness of our home 90% of the time. We are entering Stage 3, where we will retire in a few months. We will tend to out neglected gardens and pursue our interests with renewed attention. There's lots of reading to catch up, right now a book of poetry by Wordsworth is on my night stand. It's nice to bump into kindred spirits who are trying to figure out a slower better way of living. Peace to you.

[@tellinadona]

[@olgavoltrova504]

Beautiful video, amazing shots! I moved from a bigger city to a small town and I'm closer to nature now. I've been enjoying it immensely. It's much quieter and calming.

[@pandaninja6459]

Could you please please make a video for all the prior planning that has to be done before moving to the rural areas? It's my soul's desire to do that. I absolutely adore your videos.❤

[@eosantigen]

So beautiful and precious 💗

[@mollym1780]

Another beautiful video, Daria; you're very talented. My favourite season is Spring - I'm always desperate for it after Winter's grip here in the UK. The countryside around the Cotswolds is stunning, though, in all seasons. Keep sharing it with us! 😀

[@janakasanjaya6926]

Such a beautiful video to watch 🥰

[@chiikaaa4485]

Very cozy vidio🥰

[@alwaabdrashid8644]

Hi. I just found your videos. This is a really beautiful English village. I've never been to England but has always cherished the wish to visit. If you don't mind, where is this exactly? The landscape makes me feel like crying. I yearn to live in a similar setting and farm. Growing my own food. That's so satisfactory,

[@narendrarai8639]

Love from India. ❤ After watching this video i am dreaming to be there one day

[@OnelineadaywithLaura]

I think problems are inside us not around and yes it's not easy to take a step back to rethink everything and heal.

[@IamDaria]

I absolutely agree!

[@amelmaliki2090]

Amazingly slow❤

[@surcandoelcaos]

"Hello, I'm Ever. I'm writing to you from Colombia. I really love your videos, they relax me, and what you do is beautiful. I have a question for you... Why did you make the decision to create these incredible videos? What drove you?"

Everyone is a small cosmos. The great nature(including all lives) is called the "The great cosmos(the whole cosmos)". Every small cosmos is linked or connected with the great cosmos and act at every second bothly. If a person is a great cosmos. Then every cell in our body is small cosmos. Love city life means we are experiencing living with other different small cosmos. Loving the natural life, means we want to connect to the great cosmos(the whole cosmos) more strongly or to be the whole cosmos.

[@oisantos]

Countryside of England, my dream beautiful country for living 🥹

[@nataliedube1665]

this is cinematic

[@martindurkin8837]

I'm afraid dear Lady that happiness is impossible without money I'm losing my home and my will to go on. I don't wish to bring anything negative to such a beautiful place but I think this terrible fact is worth noting. Your videos are wonderful and I wish I had discovered you months ago.

[@yan2410]

i can't describe what i'm feeling when i'm watching this video, i love it, you are my role model of filmmaking. Do you sell the presets of your videos ?

[@nmmak2002]

I really love your video its very inspirational.. what apps do u use for editing in your vids?

[@inspirationsetmerveilles424]

your country surroundings looks so beautifull... I love your vlogs, your images, your words... Can I ask you what kind of camera do you use to make your movies? I think living in the country side DOES make all the différence! Because most cities are quite huggly, noisy and smell pollution. I don't live in the country side yet but try to spent the most time I can, surronded by beauty, wich means in the middle of Nature... Congratulations for your wonderfull images...🌳🍀🥀🦋⛅🌠🌤

[@IamDaria]

Thank you so much! 🥰 This video was filmed on Panasonic GH5 with a Leica 25mm lens (which due to Panasonic crop sensor is equivalent to 50mm lens). 😊 But I’m switching to Fujifilm camera now

[@renewyourself4230]

As an introvert how did you make more friends in the English countryside? We moved to the bushland about 3 years ago and I am having a hard time adjusting to the feeling of isolation and loneliness. Did you move back to the city after this 1 year?
