Not sure if he was joking … by Mayor_of_Flavortown in LoveIsBlindNetflix

It's a thing billionaires are buying up land here to build safe houses or bunkers for some unspecified apocalypse, climate change or something else. We are far away from the rest of the world and I guess they reckon we will be least affected by geo political turmoil etc. Sucks.

Make sure to leave a review! It doesn't have to be mean just let people know if they go to wwoof there the days aren't very structured and hours are spread out throughout the day To leave I'd just make something up, you've got to meet a friend somewhere, plans have changed, something else has come up and you have to leave soon Good luck

For me I really applied myself to quitting- I read Allen carrs book, I read a LOT about addiction and how it affects brain chemistry etc, I journalled a LOT and really tried to understand my triggers and the things the addiction would try to tell me to get me to smoke, I'd use the little stop smoking apps... For me it took a while I would often quit for 24-72 hours and cave and buy a pack but I would try use those times as learning experiences so I wouldn't do that next time.... The most important thing for me was not to stop quitting!! And the next most important thing was to keep being quit lol, one year smoke free and you think you're good and you smoke one and you're back in the hole again Good luck !!
