If you lived somewhere extremely remote, did you feel like life was passing you by?

We have the opportunity to move to a very remote part of the world. It would take about 4 hours to get to any proper city. Maybe 16 hours back to the UK. No direct flights. It's an island, population no more than 20,000.

It would be a great adventure, but we think we'd miss living in central London.

If someone lived in such a remote area, did they feel life was passing them by without taking full advantage of it?

Depends on your definition of life really, for if you think you will miss out. I lived in a remote area on an island (but within the uk) and I don’t feel I’m missing out as what I want to do is all on the doorstep, hiking, fishing etc there’s a small but well connected community and I just have no desire for the hustle and bustle of a city.
