The Ideal Home

The ideal home is anywhere I can sleep for 8 hours, wake up, and eat a decent breakfast. It’s somewhere close to where I work or it is where I work. The ideal home is within 10 minutes of the nearest town or a village, but is surrounded by farmland and paddocks full of horses. There’s a stableman who takes care of mucking the stalls.

I never have to clean the house. There are two full bathrooms, two bedrooms, a library, and a large kitchen. The dining room is unnecessary because we will always eat out on the back porch. There are no mosquitoes at this place, only friendly insects like lady bugs and fireflies.

There’s a garden filled with tomato plants and cucumbers that never catch blight. There are onions and fresh garlic in this garden too. Beyond the vegetable garden, there is a garden full of roses, climbers and shrubs alike, and in the fields that have not been converted to pasture, there are wildflowers that roam up the hillsides. One pasture is simply full of nothing but lavender plants. Beyond the hillsides are quaint trails meant for horseback riding through well kept woods.
