So I live in a (relatively) big city now. I’m always fascinated by the (social) super structure that is a city, and also by public transport inside cities. I like how life here never stops. You can find things to do at all hours of the day. I like all the weird and strange things the city has to offer.
It also has it’s downsides. It gets busy, polluted, dirty and noisy. There’s an airbnb close to my appartment and the guests party til 6 in the morning sometimes, on weekdays. If you complain, people say ‘you live in a big city, what do you expect?’ like it’s the normal thing to do. I miss nature sometimes.
I think I’ll eventually move to a village. Preferably at sea. But to be young in a city is a blessing at the moment.
I hate cars and pollution, so not big upsides on either. I guess I don’t care as long as there’s good transportation and healthy native ecosystems.
