quiet living

Calm, simple life

Quiet living is a lifestyle that avoids excitement, social bustle, and public attention in favor of calm routine and simple pleasures.

Someone who prefers quiet living might garden, read, and keep to themselves rather than seek adventure or nightlife: After years in the city, she retreated to the countryside for some quiet living.
