I’m new here and I’m not sure what defines simple living but I usually go by foot around town.
Distances are relatively short and it doesn’t take long to walk around. The cities in my country are very walkable. When going out of town I prefer the (dilapidated) train network. With my discount card I can ride 400km in around 6 hours for as little as 10$. I’m terrified of driving and I don’t want to bother with maintaining a car, not to mention the environmental impacts. If I really need a car when I’m overloaded with groceries, I order a cab but that’s rare.
