Resonated with this post! Lovely and will continue to ponder upon this. My husband did the same as an international grad school student in the States. By cutting coupons, cooking his own meals, cutting his own hair, taking buses or walk everywhere in inhospitable pedestrian environment in the US.
"What starts as sensible planning turns into a cycle of never-ending work and second-guessing while never feeling satisfied. The pursuit of living well becomes the very thing that prevents us from achieving it."
