Is the grass greener in the country side? (Bayramiç, Turkey)

Description

<p>I’m 33 years old and since I left my parents house, 10 years ago. I moved out a dozen of time. I ‘ve been living in different places abroad also. So, it wouldn’t be exaggerated to say that I have difficulties to settle down. I think that for some people it’s easy to know where to want to live. But for other ones, like me I guess, it’s an existential question.</p> <p>In this episode, I will visit my friends Darya and Hira, in a Çavuşlu, a small village close to Bayramiç, in the Western part of Turkey. They used to live in big cities but made this choice to move to the country side. I used to call myself a city person but the more I travel the less I like to be in the cities. But does that mean that I would like the village life? I’m wandering: What does it involve to live in a small village? How could I earn money? Is the country side always a green paradise. I came to my friends with all those questions. And in this podcast I offer to listen to two different stories.</p>
