It's true. I'm definitely not thinking of settling in the countryside -- just maybe living for 6 months - 1 year. Have you been to the Chinese countryside? What was your experience? Or are you just talking about country life in general?

I am a small-town boy.

I was in China for a month a few years ago with a group. Besides travelling around, we did two homestays (one week in a medium city and one week in the countryside). I think I would be a bit lonely there - not all that many people and not all that many activities. I could find things to do I suppose (draw, write, etc), but I would really miss the social interactions, as there would not be as many people there (esp, people my age). Granted your experience may vary. In general, country life in various countries is not all that different (or at least as far as I can tell).
