ABDHIDVIPA - A way towards sustainable living

We were living a similar life as a normal middle class working professionals live in a city like Mumbai, waiting for each and every weekend to get relief from work stress, go to the mall, shop, eat outside, and travel to different destinations during the holidays. We were unable to give time to our daughter during weekdays, so we were trying to keep her happy by spending Time and Money every weekend. We were so-called ENJOYING our life but never were SATISFIED.

In 2017, we started working on this issue by finding alternate ways to find happiness. Started reading about different things, practicing music, dance, photography, Yoga, swimming etc. Finally, we realized that our happiness lies in nature. We started taking actions immediately and looked for a land at our native in Konkan and started building our happy place “Farm Abdhidvipa” 😊.

There is a lot to share about this journey as we learnt many things during this transition from the city to the village. Right from how to choose a land, what to look for in a land, documentation, and registry, taking possession of the land and then starting to work on Farming activities. We will try to share our experiences in one of our next blogs.
