Jeanet and Raul are Dutch. Two years ago they moved from the region of Amsterdam to Poland. "Holland is a small country with a lot of people, here it is different," that's how they justify their choice. They settle down in a secluded place, live in difficult conditions, without the conveniences of civilization. They dream of building a house, running a farm. "When you enjoy the place you live, when you enjoy what you do, this is luxury in life, and not this damn microwave" Janet says. They are happy.
