"Diego is an anomaly: a young man dismissed as romantic, or “old-fashioned.” He has chosen not only to remain in the village, but to devote as much of his time as possible to learning and experimenting with practices that, in environmentalist circles, would be described as forms of “self-sufficiency.” Diego feels deeply rooted in the land where he was born and finds profound peace and happiness in his close, everyday relationship with the place he inhabits."
