I think the feeling is more exacerbated because we lived in a sun drenched townhouse for 9 years. We did not need to turn a single light on in any room until sunset - it was that well lit. And I absolutely love that feeling of natural light filling up the house completely - so adjusting to the house surrounded by trees with little light has been a shocking adjustment to put it mildly. If chopping down the trees does not fix the problem I sincerely don’t know how long I can keep living there and we only just moved in lol.
