"I enjoy the slower pace of living here," he told The Court Circular.
"I can’t imagine living in a city again. I like being able to get into London easily but I love the vibe of Molesey, not too much going on but enough.
"Being able to walk everywhere for most of what you need is great."
Molesey is conveniently located around a one hour drive from London.
Rick added that, while smaller and quieter than a city, there is still plenty to do in the area.
He continued: "We have a lot of open green areas and having the Thames close by is great for a walk to clear your head.
"We have a great selection of bars, restaurants and coffee shops for such a small place.
"Having the choice is what makes it great and there’s a healthy competition which keeps the standard up."
