I’ve lived out in the rural before. I’d only do it again if there was a pharmacy that was open more than 9-5 mon-fri within a reasonable driving distance, a grocery store, and at least one good restaurant close by (it’s nice to be removed from other but boy does cooking for yourself every meal get old fast).
Yah. But also with heat, running water, AC, a convenience shop nearby and some friends. So basically what I already have minus a job.
You don’t need A/C.
Source: I live in Wyoming.
Edit: I meant that you don’t need A/C in a cottage like the one pictured, not that A/C is unnecessary altogether. I used to live in Texas. No A/C will literally kill you in Texas, but in a wooded mountain cottage surrounded by trees like that, you don’t really need it. In my house in WY, the hottest it ever gets inside is 78 with low humidity. Below is the current temp in my room, with computers running, at 2:22PM.

Yeah and I dont need a roof either, but it sure is fuckin nice
