It is his country, though. He holds dual citizenship.

There are dozens of us! (…maybe. I don’t actually have any data to back that up. You’re the only other one I’ve come across!)

Same here! It gets complicated very quickly, so I usually just say “I work in insurance” and leave it there unless they ask more questions. If they do, it doesn’t take long before their eyes start to glaze over and I change the topic to something more accessible.

That was honestly a big part of my decision to buy that make/model. I figured if I crashed and burned with it, I could resell it for a reasonable price. It was pricey and borderline irresponsible at the time, but I don’t regret it at all. I’m really looking for forward to getting back on it soon a after a hiatus due to a shoulder injury. I’m really antsy to get back to it!

My rower, a Concept 2. I bought it for myself as a congratulations/self care splurge after leaving a truly toxic job. I love it and it has been a great way to get some exercise basically whenever I want (I’m fortunate to work from home) without the hassle of going to a gym.

Same here, I had a Fold 3 and loved it. I did break it, but it happened in a way that would have broken a traditional non-foldable too, so I can’t place the blame on the design. I’ve had a Fold 4 since November 2022 and when it’s time to replace it, I’ll definitely get another foldable. I use it for all of the things you mentioned, along with reading novels, magazines, and crafting patterns. I can’t see myself going back to a non-foldable at this point.
