I am currently doing it, near to the forest & foothills of a small mountain south of India. Also, I travel to SE Asian countries to places which are not so urban. While there are many advantages, I see myself travelling to Bangalore quite often to feel the developer vibes and talk to like-minded people to beat loneliness.
After spending enough time in Bangalore and then in Cebu (Philippines), With the convenience of remote work, it influenced my priorities to clean air and water than meetups and people. Work-life harmony is much better, while the work-life balance is out of question currently with the workload. I find myself not spending money, there is some energy left in the evening to read, I go walking near the mountains and meditate every morning. Life has turned out to be better overall.
