Most people would call it retirement.
But, without possession and without worries,
it's a boring life of a hermit!


Why not join us at Happy Haiku Retirement Community, beautifully located
on tranquil Ocean View Drive.

Here at Happy Haiku, every resident --or Sage, as we prefer to call
you-- has their own self-contained, en-suite hermitage, allowing full
"cloud-hidden" retreat conditions when desired while being conveniently
close to the Howling Dragon - Dead Tree central complex, with its shops,
cafés, beauty parlors and many recreation areas. There's always
something going on at HD-DT, whether it's Tai Chi lessons or organised
dharma battles in the beautifully maintained Bonsai Rock Garden.

Because we expect every Sage to have renounced all but the most basic
possessions, each individual hermitage is equipped with tatami mat,
zafu, wall niche and incense holder as standard. There is also a
discreetly located panic button and warden phone plus 24 hour CCTV
oversight for complete peace of mind.

[Please call our residential administrator to arrange preliminary appointment.
Relatives proposing to negotiate terms on behalf of prospective Sages
should have full powers of attorney]


Well done.
There seems to be a sitcom in it.
