@@dr_trebor Sounds like he bought abandoned land, planted it, built useful buildings on it, and grew paradise there with his own hands. Nature made it possible of course.
@@dr_trebor Most of the land I farm on I don't own. It's free. The neighbours let me cultivate it. 92% of Japanese population now live in the big cities ... free land to grow on is to infinity in Japan.
Sure. Course mate. Easy to have that lifestyle when it's afforded to you through banking, ay? I didn't mention anything about land ownership in my post, but I suppose this would be a sensitive subject for you.
29 years old and sick of my money driven life. I have always dreamed of being off grid. This man is very inspiring, I don't want kids until I can achieve this lifestyle. I hope my dreams come true one day.
27 years old and so tired of the city life ,I have finally decided to go back to our native homeland in Afghanistan and make a beautiful farm over there . I still think i am lucky for making this decision at this time ....
Just lovely, my soul is so tired of the world but the guy resonated with me when he said about 'having enough' Peace be with all who recognise when they have 'enough'
Yes, the comment of “enough” has a beautiful balance too. It can be used when you’ve found your limit, whether all you can take or all that you need. Both doors to peace.
Having 'just enough is all you need' is a famous zen saying. I feel privileged to be able to live this way, I hope more can join me. It was 10 years in the making!. The modern world actually does all it can to stop people living my way as no one profits - except nature.
"Understanding the word 'enough' is important, I think." Is probably the most important sentence in this video and more people need to hear and understand that lesson.
Jesus Christ wants a personal relationship with you through the Holy Spirit, not religion and blind faith. You see, we all have sinned, and have broken God’s law (The Ten Commandments). Wrong doing deserves justice and must be punished (just like how a criminal has to pay for the crime they have committed) but God saved us from the eternal punishment of our sins by sending His Son Jesus Christ, fullness of God in flesh, a perfect, sinless sacrifice to pay the penalty for our sins by shedding His Blood, dying on the cross and resurrecting, so that we may have everlasting life. It is all finished and now for you to accept the free gift of grace, you must repent of your sins and put your faith in Jesus Christ and Bible says that His Blood will cover all of your sins, you will be forgiven, saved from eternal punishment, and be given everlasting life. By faith you will receive the Holy Spirit, become born again, know Jesus personally and He will transform your heart and clean you from the inside out. Turn away from sin, read the Bible, pray for the Holy Spirit to fill you and change you, obey the Word. Much love and God bless you!
Thank you. Just what I needed to watch. My hubby and I are directors of our farm business and own property, plus small pensions. I am nearly 52, hubby is 55. We have started to save to retire from the farm, and possibly live on rental income, I'd really appreciate you go LIVE and talk about how to earn passive income online and retire comfortably, let’s say $1M.
It really isn’t about how much you save, it’s about how you manage your money. Whether you work to earn income or invest, it still boils down to income vs expenses, so yeah you may look into financial advisors for a strategy that suits your timing.
@tudorrwilson mind sharing info on the adviser that assisted you? been saving for pension since age 18 - company scheme. along the way I hit higher tax, so I added to my company pension with a SIPP (tax benefits) I'm 46 now and would love to grow my finance more aggressively, there are a few cars I still wish to drive, a few mega holidays, etc.
@tudorrwilson Thank you for this tip. It was easy to find your coach. Did my due diligence on her before scheduling a phone call with her. She seems proficient considering her resume.

It's been two years since I moved to a farm. I went back to the big smoke a couple of weekends ago and I couldn't sleep. The noises, the lack of consideration, the distractions and focus on ego or status. I don't think I finished many sentences before being interrupted by another conversation or new question. There was the familiar sense of people pursuing more and more and being fulfilled less and less. Loved the video, if you can't afford land, start with a garden. If you can't have a garden, start with pot plants.
Im 28 years old & this made me realize how short we have to enjoy the life & things we was given. Life itself, nature, loved ones. This is purely beautiful.
I'm only 28 yrs old but i'm leaning towards this kind of life. I moved to the countryside last year to leave the city and be with nature. And it's the best thing I've done so far. I don't know what my life will be like here, but i'm excited to know what it's gonna be. 💚
I love the garden design with the four paths leading outward from the center. It reminds me of the Mercator map of the Arctic, which shows lands in the shape of a four leaf clover around the pole. It is the true map of how our northern regions look today, despite what scientists say about an ice sheet.
I was born into this kind of life and chose a change into the city life...I have learned so much about people and different worlds I didn't know ...I can't wait to go back to the simplicity of country life. Its where my soul's calling . I'm so much happier without crowds of people around. I love my own company much more .
He truly created heaven on earth. Slowly, we are coming back to nature as food becomes so expensive. I grew up like this. I have always being surrounded by nature. I love and adore my forest at the back of my home. Its just come into bloom now and has become rich in green lush leaves its so beautiful and very blessed.
I often think that I was born in the wrong time which I know isn't true but I so much enjoy this type of living compared to being in the city. I am now for the first time in my life growing my own food, raising chickens and planting fruit trees. talking my husband into a wood burning stove, my prayers include living as self sufficient as possible. It is a much more peaceful and enjoyable way of life in my opinion. God bless you all
One book I really enjoyed reading…free online…is called Ten Acres Enough. From 1860s USA. Big best seller. Man moves his family from city to a small farm. When the guy in the film said Enough, he made me think of it. It’s a diary of sorts, with lots of details. And spreadsheet type records of his harvest and income for his family. And what worked. It’s fairly short and well written. Fascinating book.
Of course, one still needs some money coming in even with all other needs provided for through self sufficiency...this and how to get land is the primary issue a lot of people who want to move back to the countryside are having.
What a beautiful mind set- a truly beautiful way of life. Thank you for sharing this video ~ you are remarkable people. Sending you light, love, peace, joy and abundance always. I love you.
It doesn't have to cost a fortune. I know land access is a problem in the west, fortunately Japan is different and we were able to find our place going for a pittance. We've expanded our farm to 3 times it's original size without spending a penny on land since the original purchase. I think if we were trying to do this in the west, we'd have to look into rented land, cooperatives or shared ownership.
@@cripmoorey Is it difficult for Westerners to buy land and build on it like this? Visas and other red tape? I see from this channels other videos that there are a few westerners living this way in Japan.I suspect you/they have a Japanese partner so it's easier.
I'm in the exact same spot as "Mr England", appart from the fact that i built in Franceinstead of Japan. I lived in a tent for 2 years while i was planting fruit trees (a little less then 100) and building a 20m2 shed to live till the house is built. Difference is that i use nearly 0 petrol (10l a year) but i built my solar panel system and all my tools works on it (jointer/planer, table saw, saws, drills, mower .... etc) And like Mr English ... i'm living connected to the rythm of nature.

Beautiful. I am surprised that Japan being the land where Masanobu Fukuoka Sa was born and still not many people follow host natural farming methods. This guy is amazing.
sorry, but 8 billion people of this planet will not be fed this way. unless you propose that starvation of billions is the way to go ... and who will do your clothes and shoes and those tools/machinery that he uses to cultivate his land? sorry, but it's a very romanticised and naive way of thinking
A jolly and hardworking old English man living in Japan and in a blissful and tranquil land and nature. Ideal life well away from modernity. However did not see anything about his family. May God bless and protect him.
Great work showcasing these examples….. I’m seeing very humble people creating a better life for themselves and the community they are regenerating. I stumbled across your work after viewing David Trood from The Weedy Garden an Australian. I’m looking forward to viewing more episodes - Thankyou. Some required inspiration for our bare 10 acres we have in Victoria Australia.
I read many comments from people who are fed up with their way of life, who would like to have a life like the people in this video. But we don't dare to take the step, or we don't have enough resources. If only we were not so individualistic and selfish and could come together as a group. Many people could never do this alone, but maybe they could in a group.
If you are interested we can work together on this I have a land of about 1k hectares and I wish to get off rid but I don't have much money to buy solar installation that's my biggest backset
As a fellow Englishman, I fully agree with his opinion of both city life and living in the countryside. I really couldn’t take the city anymore - the noise and air pollution, the crowds, etc were driving me insane. Here, I can go outside most nights and have a beautiful view of the stars. I just sit there watching the night sky with the sound of the running water and the birds and relax. The absence of noise from vehicles alone was fantastic. No noisy scooters delivering newspapers at 4am, no motorbikes, and no ambulances. Our farm sits at 850 metres above sea level in a space cut out of the cypress and chestnut forest. There is a large stream with fish running through the property, which was a key selling point. Nearby bamboo groves also provide lots of takenoko in late April through May, there is plenty of foraging available and I will be enjoying chestnuts later in the year. We have bears and monkeys here as well, but the boar, so far, are more troublesome. They can destroy a crop overnight I didn’t want to build fences, but it has to happen. Luckily, the land is terraced with large stone walls that will not require as many fences. I too will be regenerating this land. I’ve bought many species of fruit trees, blackberry, blueberry and grapes and we also got some bee hives that we hope to get filled. I have almost finished building a chicken coop and that, we hope, will supply us our eggs. I have the compost piles going and there is no lack of material on hand to do that. It’s an old farmhouse, and needs some work. The electricity, for example, is only 15 amps; which seems insufficient but has been ok so far. On a positive note, our electric bill was only ¥2,500 in April and water is free. To get upgraded to 30 amps requires paying for another line to be run and I imagine that won’t be cheap.
So inspiring. I'm a male mid 50's, overweight, unhappy, lost in London. Have been burned out for working my whole life in mental health helping others. I'm desperately looking for an exit from this existential trap. Love cooking, making jam, preserves, and willing to learn bakery skills. Is anywhere, anyone out there??
Honestly if you've got the means to move and set yourself up somewhere else just do it, it doesn't have to be as drastic as moving to another part of the world, but it sounds like you'd be happier in a smaller place that's more community based living. Why not move somewhere smaller, maybe get some land, or at least a garden and start living that slow life? Take a job in something that covers your bills if you need to work and give yourself the space and time to nurture the things that you care about!

I’m looking forward to viewing more episodes - Thankyou. Some required inspiration for our bare 10 acres we have in Victoria Australia.
I dream having a place like that i love it.....
I read many comments from people who are fed up with their way of life, who would like to have a life like the people in this video. But we don't dare to take the step, or we don't have enough resources. If only we were not so individualistic and selfish and could come together as a group. Many people could never do this alone, but maybe they could in a group.
If you are interested we can work together on this I have a land of about 1k hectares and I wish to get off rid but I don't have much money to buy solar installation that's my biggest backset
This is paradise, peaceful, appreciate the nature..
What a peaceful and rewarding Life
I enjoyed this story because it seemed to have a full circle, beginning, middle and end. Just enough detail to spur the imagination on.
Seeing a boot jack for the first time has just changed what I believed about existence.
based in japan too, doing the same thing...
Its great to see how japan is getting into regenative agriculture
Not really Japan..
Omg I love the life you have created, it’s amazing.
"Understanding the word 'enough' is important"
As a fellow Englishman, I fully agree with his opinion of both city life and living in the countryside. I really couldn’t take the city anymore - the noise and air pollution, the crowds, etc were driving me insane. Here, I can go outside most nights and have a beautiful view of the stars. I just sit there watching the night sky with the sound of the running water and the birds and relax. The absence of noise from vehicles alone was fantastic. No noisy scooters delivering newspapers at 4am, no motorbikes, and no ambulances.
Our farm sits at 850 metres above sea level in a space cut out of the cypress and chestnut forest. There is a large stream with fish running through the property, which was a key selling point. Nearby bamboo groves also provide lots of takenoko in late April through May, there is plenty of foraging available and I will be enjoying chestnuts later in the year.
We have bears and monkeys here as well, but the boar, so far, are more troublesome. They can destroy a crop overnight I didn’t want to build fences, but it has to happen. Luckily, the land is terraced with large stone walls that will not require as many fences. I too will be regenerating this land. I’ve bought many species of fruit trees, blackberry, blueberry and grapes and we also got some bee hives that we hope to get filled. I have almost finished building a chicken coop and that, we hope, will supply us our eggs. I have the compost piles going and there is no lack of material on hand to do that.
It’s an old farmhouse, and needs some work. The electricity, for example, is only 15 amps; which seems insufficient but has been ok so far. On a positive note, our electric bill was only ¥2,500 in April and water is free. To get upgraded to 30 amps requires paying for another line to be run and I imagine that won’t be cheap.
Where are you based in Japan?

No Sir, on a farm you WORK, but its soooo satisfying!!!!! You and your wife are sooo SMART.❤❤
"Understanding the word enough is important"..... indeed!
What a wonderful & inspiring video! Really growing addicted to this channel, watching your videos is simply therapeutic
Very well expressed, looking forward to join the club 🌞👍🏻
So inspiring. I'm a male mid 50's, overweight, unhappy, lost in London. Have been burned out for working my whole life in mental health helping others. I'm desperately looking for an exit from this existential trap. Love cooking, making jam, preserves, and willing to learn bakery skills.
Is anywhere, anyone out there??
Honestly if you've got the means to move and set yourself up somewhere else just do it, it doesn't have to be as drastic as moving to another part of the world, but it sounds like you'd be happier in a smaller place that's more community based living. Why not move somewhere smaller, maybe get some land, or at least a garden and start living that slow life? Take a job in something that covers your bills if you need to work and give yourself the space and time to nurture the things that you care about!
