Washington, Oct 2 : Actress Ellen Page says she finds shoveling goat manure relaxing.

The ‘Juno’ star took a break from spotlight and lived in an eco-village where she shoveled goat manure.

"I went to Oregon to study permaculture and lived in an eco-village for a month outside Eugene. It''s called Lost Valley. It was amazing and exactly what I needed,” Contactmusic quoted her as telling USA Today.

"You''re learning how to live in a holistic way with the cycles of the Earth. At one point I was digging goat manure and putting it into a wheelbarrow, and while shovelling it, I just went, ''Oh, my God, this is exactly what I want to be doing right now,'' " she added.

Meanwhile, Page is determined not to change with the newfound fame, adding her life is so normal she hopes people won''t be interested in hearing about it.

"I''m not a fancy person. I love small spaces. I like tiny cars. I don''t buy things, aside from music and books. I don''t get loads of attention and maybe it''s because I''m kind of boring. I don''t think I''m boring, but I have different interests. I don''t go out much, not because I''m hiding but because I''m not a big drinker. I go out and have a good time, I go to concerts and stuff," she added. (ANI)
