I have lived most of my life on the great plains and while I don't know of sea or mountain, I have lived a few years in a forested area and I felt twinges of claustrophobia the whole time. No farms, no horizons anywhere - just trees. Not for me. I dunno, I love the wide openness of it. The wind trying to push you around. The rolling clouds, the dark skies. Try and live on the western edge of small town - even better if you're on a slight rise. You get a sunset every day, cloud watching on a stormy day feels very pagan, and every day smells ever so slightly different.
