Click image for 954 x 1452 size.

City man: At last I can breathe! No newspapers, no gambling, no one I know!
On his first day he dedicates himself to taking care of the vegetable garden.

On the second day he builds and paints a fence and enjoys himself, feeding the chickens.

On the third day he walks through the fields, in search for flowers and romance, and dedicates himself to fishing.

But during the remaining 27 days, he reads newspapers, plays the domino and goes train spotting, hoping to see a familiar face.

The bride remains content."
