I have felt that way all my adult life. Living in the city got to be so oppressive I moved away. I live in a heavily wooded area with large open spaces around and can find places of solitude where nature is allowed to survive without interference from mankind.
There is nothing more relaxing than to work outdoors where the only unnatural sounds are those I make and where a long break, sitting against a tree and eating lunch is so vastly more satisfying than eating in a restaurant, it has to be experienced to know the difference.

Mate, you just made me miss the countryside even more! “ Sitting against a tree eating some lunch” so good! I’m lucky as I get to do this sort of thing a lot but over the last three weeks just haven’t had the chance.
