it took you two months long to make the move. The moral is that, 1) set the budget, and 2) choose between the best two.
Think twice, but no more. At the end of the day, you must act.
Now live the life you deserve.
I read the first blog a while ago when I was lost. I wasn’t seeking grand, magic solution. But the minimalist philosophy clicks—it focuses your attention on what truly matters.
I will be living here for the coming two years.
