    Finn Wolfhard thinks it is "nice" he still lives with his parents

    The 22-year-old actor - who shot to fame playing Mike Wheeler in 'Stranger Things' - spent some time living alone while working but has been back with his family for some time and appreciates getting to spend quality time with them on the rare occasions he isn't away filming


    He told People magazine: "I lived alone for a few years, I guess two years, and then I moved back in with my family for a year. And then, last year, I was living alone in Atlanta for the year while shooting 'Stranger Things', but I have since moved back in with my family.

    "We have a place in Vancouver. We all have our separate space, but we still live together, and it's great.

    "I rarely get to see my family. I think it's a nice home base to have, just because, if I'm going to be away for most of the year working, then I might as well have a place [to come back to] with my parents."

    And Finn values being able to lead a relatively normal life in Canada.

    He said: "I like to walk around Vancouver. I like to play music, play guitar in my studio and record music on my own. It's a great feeling.

    "I am also always watching a lot of stuff, just a ton of TV and YouTube."

    The 'Legend of Ochi' actor knows "it's important" to take "a break from the daily routine and everything" and hopes to get away on vacation soon.

    He said: "There's a lot of multitasking and a lot of doing five things at once, so it's important to get time off as well.

    "I'll plan for a vacation in the next few months, for sure."

    Finn never expected 'Stranger Things' to be such an overwhelming instant success and with hindsight, he wishes he'd embarked on therapy at the time.

    He said: I don't think I'd ever go back and do something over, but maybe I would go back to when the first show came out and blew up, and I would directly put myself into therapy.

    "But it was so crazy and overnight, that there was not really any time to think about that."
