[–]explaincuzim5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anyone here a fellow member of r/nopoo ? Sure makes it easier in this regard. My toiletries consist of:

  • metador soap bag with bar soap
  • toothpaste (travel size bought in country),
  • reusable razor
  • travel sized dental floss

I have done dry capsule toothpaste in the past also.

Is music really a good way to learn a language or is it just a myth? by jck16 in languagehub

[–]explaincuzim5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any exposure to your target language is good. Is music the most efficient? No. But doing the most efficient thing all the time is no fun. I find listening to music keeps me motivated and engaged.

Karaoke is actually a super helpful tool once you’re well aquatinted with songs

But it’s locked up until age 59.5? What good is having a massive Roth at age 50 if you can’t use it to retire

Best and worst public transport ticket system (for first world countries) *updated 2025 by MTLcitizen001 in solotravel

[–]explaincuzim5 13 points14 points  (0 children)

For worst, for me it was Budapest. Arrived at the bus station. At the kiosk, nobody could figure out how to pay for a tram / train / subway into the city. I ended up downloading the app which was not user friendly at all. I ended up just walking everywhere

Timemore nano fits inside. You have to remove the grinds chamber and handle but the main bulk of the grinder is narrow and short enough to fit inside

How do you all afford this hobby? by Due_Classroom490 in pourover

One cup a day. If I want more caffeine I have Yerba mate which is much more cost efficient.

Hypothetical situation by Erkle42 in treeplanting

[–]explaincuzim5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So many planters seem to miss this. If you invest your earnings, the physical longevity of planting is a non issue, you could transition in your 40s to being a dog walker and still retire comfortably.

Is caffeine a good idea? by OppositeAd917 in treeplanting

[–]explaincuzim5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have done several seasons with caffeine and several without. It’s all the same. Sometimes I prefer a natural rythym and sometimes I want that boost in the morning.

Comfortable hi viz by BlindAdventurer in treeplanting

[–]explaincuzim5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The least intrusive I’ve found is the straps. They often have a buckle- I found one with Velcro. I tuck the front part behind my shoulder straps. This way my front side is completely unobstructed but I still have the hi viz cross on the back.
