Finn Wolfhard, 22, on Living with Parents After ‘Stranger Things’ Success (Exclusive)

Home is where the heart is for Finn Wolfhard.

The actor, 22, tells PEOPLE in an exclusive interview that he is currently living with family — even amid the success he has found as an actor through Stranger Things and other film and television projects.

“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,” Finn says.

“We have a place in Vancouver. We all have our separate space, but we still live together, and it’s great,” he continues.

Adds the Hell of a Summer director and star: “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.”

During an interview with Ryan Reynolds for Interview Magazine in December 2019, the star reflected on his parents’ decision to raise him in Canada.

“There’s no way I’d be the same person if I wasn’t raised here in Vancouver,” Finn — whose upcoming feature, The Legend of Ochi, will hit theaters on April 25 — said.

Living in Canada, Finn tells PEOPLE he is just like any other young adult — even with his impressive résumé.

“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,” he says.

“I am also always watching a lot of stuff, just a ton of TV and YouTube,” continues Finn.

The actor also knows that “it’s important” to take “a break from the daily routine and everything,” explaining, “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 adds with a laugh.
