E mi prendevo un po' di pizza al taglio per portarmela al lavoro per pranzo e la stessa pizza è passata da 10.99€/kg (era a 12.99, ma andavo il giorno in cui la scontavano...) a 17.99 (e non c'è più il giorno in cui la scontano). Purtroppo, considerando il tipo di alimenti che acquisto io e che pesano di più sulla mia spesa, dal 2018 ho visto un aumento del 70-80%. Infatti probabilmente toglierò la pizza al taglio buona dai miei acquisti settimanali per rientrare su livelli più decenti. Altre cose non sono aumentate così tanto, ma vogliamo parlare dell'olio d'oliva o del riso per risotti? In 5 anni sono più che raddoppiati; per fortuna di quelli non ne consumo tanti, ma mia mamma ha smesso di fare le verdure in casa sott'olio e ha dimezzato il numero di risotti: più pasta e meno risotti, perché la pasta è aumentata decisamente meno. La differenza che ho visto molto, soprattutto sui prodotti per i gatti, è che prima trovavo tutto perennemente in offerta, mentre ora solo prezzo pieno e pure aumentato

Only read about the Lake District, but it sure looks gorgeous on the screen. I always heard Scotland was stunning, but had no idea until the Queen passed away. I watched a live stream of her hearse traveling to Balmoral from London and the Scottish landscape was too breathtaking for words. I had absolutely no idea it was so lush and wild looking. It’s like time stopped there. You can actually see the Highlands from hundreds of years ago still in existence. I like to think if was her last act of generosity even in death.

I unfortunately had a 3 month period of intense anxiety in 2021 following a moment when I nearly T.U. I have been seeing a therapist too, very helpful. The worst thing about this phobia (which distinguishes it from my arachnophobia) is that unlike spiders which for the most part you can run away from / move to a different room, you can't escape from yourself! I won't go into any details because I know they might not be so fun to read from you, but wow so happy there are other people out there who know what this is like (not that I would wish this on anyone). Beyond that, you are inspirational and deserve every success coming your way! :) Dominic

I wouldn’t feel the need to travel much if I lived there either. I used to love traveling and then something happened that left me with (at times) crippling anxiety. It’s very hard to enjoy or even take in new places when your body is in high alert mode. France isn’t going anywhere. If and when you’re ready, France, its baguettes and dizzying repertoire of cheeses will be waiting for you.

Brilliant George! I'm also a home lover and not much of a traveler. I have been abroad but always look forward to getting back home and enjoying the beaches and coutryside around me. Best wishes for your future endeavours 😃😃

I find this type of video on how people live their lives quite addictive. I think you have done so well to get as far as you have at such a young age and your story will act as an inspiration for other young (and maybe not so young) people going forward. I have subscribed.

The holidays I enjoy are the ones where I don’t have to do any planning. All I do is pack my clothes and show up at the airport. I’m fortunate that my son does all the planning and I just show up and enjoy. When I had to plan my vacation holidays it was stressful. I UNDERSTAND YOUR PAIN

I love your long term life plan. Know yourself and be comfortable in your space. I have learned to hate foreign travel and that wasn't my original intention!
