The Abundance of Less

Brief Summary

Imagine leaving the busy city life for a simpler one in rural Japan, not just for a vacation but as a permanent change. "The Abundance of Less" by Andy Couturier tells the stories of ordinary people who chose a different lifestyle. Couturier introduces you to artists, farmers, and thinkers who left the city's stress behind to live self-sufficiently in the Japanese countryside. The book challenges the most popular belief of modern times - the idea that more stuff means more happiness.
