Days pass by quickly in the busy life, and many women in their 40s and 50s begin to feel confused about their life direction. In this stage, taking a "small step" to change, you may be able to find the meaning of life again.

Ms. Sethynko, a 52-year-old office worker living in Chiba County, lives with her 58-year-old husband. This spring, she rented a citizen farm for about 500 yuan per month (about 103 Taiwan dollars), and began a completely different "vegetable life" from the past, and thus gained a long-lasting spiritual satisfaction.

{9 She admitted: "In the past, she only grew cactus or leaf plants at most, and she was not good at cooking. She rarely started her own business. She often ate outside and never thought she could cook her own vegetables."

It was not until the epidemic that she changed to working remotely at home and no longer had to endure long commuting that she slowly tried planting lettuce and tomatoes in her own sunset. When the focus of her life returned home, she felt the change in her mood and thought of "thinking to make things on a larger land."

The price of "a cup of coffee" was changed to a small world. After investigation, she found that there were nowhere to stay away from home. The annual fee was about 6,000 yen (about 1,241 tel.), and after the conversion, it only costs 500 yen (about 103 tel.) per month. "Even if nothing is harvested, it's just the price of a cup of coffee, and there's nothing to hesitate about," she said with a smile.

So, in March this year, she officially rented a piece of farmland. Although the weather was still cold at that time, she went to the fields to climb up the soil every day, waiting for the time to sow in spring. She also discovered that spring is the time when most people want to start planting in the year. "If you don't decide in early spring, you may not be able to rent vacant land soon."

Small investment, big heart satisfaction

For her, this small farm is not only a place for growing vegetables, but also a new lifestyle. From a foreign foodie to a willingness to spend time to plant it hand-held, she felt that "life can create scenery by itself" and also gained a completely different sense of happiness from the past. "Although it's just a 500-day fee per month, it brings revenue that cannot be measured by money," she said.
