Wow! Loved your update.and yes.. I can completely understand how you feel. There is almost a duality to that lifestyle. So much freedom... to work more😂
I think you are looking at this change the correct way though..it's essentially a training ground. And whether you pursue farming as your profession or otherwise.. by buying the land, you're invested into the property market.. and by working the land, you're appreciating its Value while learning simple earthy knowledge which will be applicable throughout your life.
Sometimes you own a farm.. sometimes a farm owns you.
