Yeah. Same here. I'd like to be in community with my parents etc. But my job, which is providing for whole family is in the capital.
We are trying to make it work, with some double flat, partiall commuting etc. But of course this all means it will be quite expensive 🤷♂️
Yup.
After this year, I'll be able to survive with much, much less fiat coming in, so I'll be able to not need as much in the way of pay, but, I'm well past the high-point of my ability to work, and thus, time is much more of a priority as I finally think I have my priorities straight and want more time to put towards those things, so working a low paying job to pay my bills really doesn't sit well.
I really do hope that is I finish my novel that I can get it published, as doing so would very likely allow me to break the cycle of being a wage slave.
Glad my husband mostly has home-office because he also works in the city. I understand the difficulty.
