      You’re not alone. I mourn the pre-pandemic world (which still had big problems) everyday. I miss a lot of things I used to take for granted. Freedom and privacy have taken a big hit. We have so much fear and division now, although, ironically, that has helped me to find more common ground with those I used to view as radically different from me.
      I wish you peace. Love is the antidote to fear.

    First, I think a lot of people's mental health was extremely affected by the pandemic. Kudos to you for doing something drastic to take care of the situation. A lot of people are a lot more stuck (settled for years; in the same house and area for years).
    Look forward to your content!

    I understand how you feel completely. I feel the same. During lockdown I realised that I'm not very happy where I Iive in a suburb of East London. The town is expanding rapidly, they're building hundreds of new houses on our green spaces. The traffic is already bad and it will get much worse. The crime rate is getting worse too. Police cars are becoming an almost everyday occurence in my area and someone was actually shot a couple of years ago. They survived, thank goodness, but it was all to do with drugs. So it's time to go and I'm buying an older house, with a garden, near the sea. Not as adventurous as you but still an unknown area where I'll have to start from scratch. I'm excited, a bit scared and very optimistic. I know it's the right thing to do. I wish you all the very best for your future and I would love to see what you do with your new house. 300 years old, wow! Mine is only 120 years old but my current flat is modern so I too want to treasure the history of the house. And I can't wait to create a garden and grow my own vegetables and scented flowers. I will take you with me on my journey and I will accompany you on yours. Much love to you Justine x

    Dear Justine,
    Thank you so much for the privilege of better understanding this important time in your life and the world events and issues you care so deeply about. I hope it helps to feel supported that others share your concerns, and one hopes that our individual life choices will collectively make a difference. You may never completely understand the good effects of your influence, for example, just naming the topics of climate change and the war in your video has helped pulled these important issues to the forefront, and have sparked meaningful actions in others you may never realize.
    On a lighter note, you’re actually living out my dream of living in Provence and I’m so happy for you! Your new home seems like the perfect place to inspire your talent and artistry. The corner from which you recorded this video looks so charming filled with light and character. It would be awesome to follow your progress if you document it.
    Better yet, I wonder if there is some way we could help you…have you considered a kickstart project perhaps? I expect there are many who would support your desire to restore using the time period methods …especially if it is better for the environment and inspires others!
    I know I’m not alone in thanking you for your channel and wishing you our support as you turn the page in this new exciting chapter of your journey! Bon chance! ♥️

    I completely understand your state of mind, Justine. I am so very tired of COVID, the threat of infection, the hassle of travel, countries that are closed to travelers, feeling despondent and down every day. Change can recharge you, and lift your spirits. Buying a house in a beautiful area sounds like heaven to me. Best of luck to you!

    @missmayflower 2 ปีที่แล้ว +67

    So relatable. We’ve all gone through those feelings these past couple of years. You are so great at articulating things. Provence stunned me. I had seen beautiful photos, but they didn’t prepare me for the extreme beauty that left me breathless. Great choice. I hope you don’t miss the city too much. Best of luck, especially getting workmen for your project. It will take far longer than you expect. You will definitely learn to slow down.

      Like the book “ A year in Provence” Mayler. I couldn’t stop laughing. Read at least two more times. Even though she’s French being worldly, traveled and from big “city” is going to be enjoyable to watch her tales about adapting to live in a small Provençal village. 👍🏻😅

    Thank you for acknowledging the authoritarian turn in the world. All the rest are also deeply legitimate problems, but the loss of personal freedoms is not the solution. I watch your channel because I care about the issues you address, and want to be wise in my choices. I've seen many, many individuals and groups voluntarily do great things. To apply force cheapens the love behind the sacrifices we are making to build a better world, destroys relationships of trust, and the building resentment causes further problems which take resources that could have been dedicated elsewhere.

    Hi, I totally understand how you’ve arrived at your decision and the reasons behind it. Like many, I too had reflected on my life over the last two years. The single biggest development to come out of this pandemic is that we are reviewing lives, and how we work. Geography is less important to some of us and that has opened the whole world. As a therapist, I’m doing most of my work online and realising that I could live absolutely anywhere. I cannot wait to see your new home and how you change alongside of your new hone. Provence is such a beautiful part of France and as you were speaking, I could just imagine life there. Enjoy every moment, and take care 🤗❤️
