I can't afford a European vacation either. I'm from Europe.

I knew I wouldn't be able to afford a vacation so I moved to a scenic tourist destination with a view of the fjord and drink coffee on my balcony. That way I can pretend. I also get one of the kids to throw a dishtowel over their arm and carry a small notebook while they ask me how I take the coffee thats been sitting in the pot for a half hour already.

In what hell hole of Europe are you, that you don't get freshly brewed espresso?

Only the Finnish can be that enthusiastic about the gloom

[-] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

North Europe probably.

That's how it starts. Just let it develop for a century or something and you'll probably be decent at it

Unfortunately, it doesn't work like that. You have to lobby to change zoning laws to make it happen.

This is genuinely really classy

I was talking about this with a friend. The younger generations got screwed over because we have to evaluate what we value more, and give up one over the other to achieve one of the life goals. I managed to save for a house; but only because I lived with my parents for many years before moving out. I don't have a car and I haven't gone on foreign holidays in years. Meanwhile, my friend has travelled in so many countries but he doesn't have enough savings for a house. The boomer generation has been able to afford to live their life to the fullest with just a single household income, and didn't have to give up any or all of their life goals, values and desires.

It looks like they are at a sidewalk cafe in Europe. The Sangria implies Spain. Tiny tables and chairs and everyone is smoking.

Aperol Spritz

[-] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

More of a local and graphic village, with small restaurants/bars, drinking sangria or or Aperol.

That's Paris, I recognize it from the building and the texts are in French. Do a reverse search on Google and I'm pretty sure it's right ehehe

That looks nice

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

Very nice.
But can you sit like that for four weeks on end?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

I don't think I'll even ever leave my continent at this point, but I do have a driveway…
