I was talking to a friend and complaining that the nearest grocery store is 3km from me, he says that Europeans consider that a reasonable distance to the store and I’m just being lazy.
I don’t have a car, I don’t have a bike, and the bus only comes by every four hours. Am I being unreasonable for not wanting to carry groceries 3km in 30C weather, or is my friend full of shit? Neither of us have been to Europe.
right, but OP is 3k away, so 6k round trip just for the grocery store … is that typical?
3k is just under 2 miles. That’s not that far. That’s about what I walked here in the US before moving to a larger city where there’s a grocery store right across the street.
