On April 22nd, Zach Gallifinakis has called a tiny town in British Columbia, Canada, home for almost 10 years now, trading Hollywood glamour for a soldier. Chill, rural vibe. He's all about that simple life, growing up in a small spot himself, and ditching the LA scene that just never clicked. His fresh Netflix documentary series, This Is a Gardening Show, Spotlights his passion for digging in the dirt and living off the grid. He first fell for the area over 25 years ago, visiting on and off before settling in full time. Growing up, Modus made him crave that back-to-basics feel, especially after scraping by as a busboy at a strict club until he was 28. That distance from Shobius keeps things healthy for him.

Last week on Jimmy Kimmel Live, he gushed about his spot with maybe a thousand folks, out

on a rural island off the coast. British Columbia's beauty hooked him, and he loves Canada straight up. By shooting his family from the fame like, keeping his sons away from premieres, he's carved out peace that fuels his best work, proving you can thrive.
