Make village life your new normal
Emerging from the two years of covid restrictions, lockdowns and isolation, so many of us are desperate to have a strong sense of community again. Given we are social creatures, this sense of belonging and engagement in our community is critical to our wellbeing. And the world over, village life promotes this sense of belonging and engagement.With so many of us living in large cities, we can be forgiven for thinking that this village life is unobtainable and feel rather anonymous and disengaged. However, within cities, there can be a strong sense of village life and connectedness – you just need to know where to look. And there are a few progressive developers who are creating purpose-built villages within our city in an effort to improve our quality of life and provide an instant sense of community.
