Retreat for tomorrow. Vol.1
What a sub-square second home will bring.

The onslaught of the corona, which shows no sign of abating yet, has caused many people to think hard about where and how they will live in the future. As one form of this, an increasing number of people are moving to the local area or buying a second home (vacation home). This is probably one of the reasons why "retreats," which are meant to get away from the daily routine and face one's mind and body, are attracting attention. In reality, buying a vacation home is quite a hurdle to overcome, but a new service is now available to help lower the barrier. A new service that advocates "Live with nature. What is this new service, "SANU 2nd Home," which advocates "Live with nature. We look back on the retreat experience that this new second home, which fits the current times, brings.

Play and work freely.

The heating is on by itself. However, I don't feel cold at all, perhaps because I had been outside until then, or perhaps someone had been here until this morning. When you light the fireplace, which is environmentally friendly and uses wood chips (pellets), it warms the air in no time. There is a large glass window facing the lake with excellent lighting, but it is double-glazed and has wooden sashes, so the airtightness and insulation are perfect.

As soon as I arrived, I opened my computer and started working in my "second home". There is wifi and a good network environment. It was too cold to do so this time, but it is possible to work on the balcony while looking out over the lake. I would love to try it when the weather gets warmer.

In the evening, if you look out the window, the sun is setting behind the mountains. When you spend time in nature, you are always impressed by the scenery that you cannot see in the city. It may be a bit of an exaggeration to call it "eternal," but it is a pleasant experience to follow the slow rhythm of time, which is different from that of the city.
