This file contains the semi-structured interview guide developed for the HL-EXURB project. The questionnaire was designed to explore the hybrid lifestyles of creative ex-urbanites and their connections to urban, rural, and digital spaces.
The interview guide covers key thematic areas including:
motivations for relocation and lifestyle change
professional practices and digital forms of work
everyday life in rural settings
socio-ecological practices and values
interactions with local communities and forms of community-making
Interviews were conducted with purposively selected participants who previously lived in urban areas and are currently engaged in creative, digital, or hybrid professional activities in a rural context.
The guide follows a flexible structure, allowing for in-depth exploration of participants’ experiences while ensuring comparability across interviews.
