If you were given the opportunity, would you give up the buzzing and somewhat stressful lifestyle we enjoy here in Australia and move to a small village in Europe? Everything taken care of - finance, accommodation, and work. The only catch - you'll need to live there for at least a year so you can experience the village in a complete annual cycle.

I would. I remember when I as in Luxembourg, I was amazed at how different the lifestyle was. It was a lot more laid back and somewhat peaceful. Put it this way, at 9:00pm at night, the main road was empty.

I'd make the choice to rush off to a small European village in a heartbeat if everything was arranged. A year isn't such a long time in life. But it's enough time to have some life changing experiences and alter the way you see the world.

I wish I was around 80 years ago in a European village.

I've heard so many stories of guys getting away with murder it makes me envious!

Depends... could be a really nice quaint village, but everyone there might be a serial killer, rapist or pedo.

For such a change to work you'd have to be someone that finds peace in solitude, and enjoys the beauty of nature.

One of my dads uncles was a strict Catholic. Everytime he got married he took the "till death do us part" quite literally!

Mate that sounds like you to a tee, ain’t it?
Something like this would be more my thing:

Close to nature (with its own rainforest/walking tracks), in a nice place, that's outside of the hustle and bustle, but still close enough to a JB Hifi/etc.

Would rather go for more Mediterranean beach lifestyle I think.

I've got myself Maltese Citizenship now (Only took 3 years), so sometime down the track never say never could find myself chilling back in the motherland continent.

No I couldn’t see a Bulldogs Pay coached team on tv each week. I need a weekly laugh.

Wow you're Maltese? I never would've guessed it... I thought you were a kiwi for some reason.
