A dream to live on an island 2 months ago

I would like to live on an Island and do a simple job. I am not cut out for this crazy life in the US or the complete chaos of my homeland. I need somewhere in the middle.

i NEEEED to live on an island 3 months ago

How do i do this? city life just drives me crazy, i cant understand it and i dont know why i continue to live this way. The only times i have ever felt at peace in my life have been on islands. living with nature rather than building over it. i need to live where the only restrictions are geographical. if anyone knows how i can do this please please give me an idea!



island living 3 months ago

living on an island is the loveliest feeling ever. the breezes, the flowers, the smell of the water totally surrounding you… it’s heaven. i got a taste of it when i lived in hawaii for 2 summers and i will never be the same for it. i can not forget the way it felt to never want to be indoors again, to spend forever and a day lying underneath a palm tree and breathing in slowly the sweet fragrant air.
when you live on an island, the world moves sloooowly, in the best way possible. no one rushes, the attitude is always, “let’s get there when we get there.” it’s the perfect setting for someone who doesn’t own a watch, and never intends to. it’s as if the islanders are isolated from the world in the same way that children are isolated at the kid’s table… left alone to play with their food and tell dirty jokes where the adults can’t scold them.
it’s the most fun i’ve had in my life.

I live on an island now... 4 months ago

...just not the kind of island you’re probably thinking of. I live on an island which is part of the series of islands which make up Karlskrona, Sweden. The view of the water is breathtaking. There aren’t really any waves here, and the water is not really salty…but that’s the Baltic for you. It’s windy a lot of the time and the spiders are terrible in summer (I HATE spiders)...but it’s worth it anyway. It’s like living in a postcard.

Floating Away 5 months ago

Been in the U.S. for way too long! Time to get away and maybe stay away. Warm weather, sun, sand, and ocean breezes are calling my name!



just another dreamer to live on an island 5 months ago

what more can I say, I have been dreaming to live on an island for many years. I am 25 now, and still love to hear the waves of the ocean put me to sleep when i’m on vacation. Its not a phase, its something i need. I’m a very simple person, with simple needs. Life should be simple otherwise we just make trouble we don’t need.
