I've been a nanny for the past few years so have had to have a car for the carseats. I'm looking for a non-nannying job now and realised I don't have any excuses to still have a car...BUT after thinking about it, I have been able to find a few (some are very silly, and a bit girly) but I still need help solving these before I can commit to actually doing this...
My PROS list looks like this:
* Environmentally friendly
* More cost effective (unless I'm using public transport - it would cost me about $50 per week if I used a bus/train every day for a week, but only about $35 for car costs - so I'd like to cycle mostly if I sold my car)
* Good fitness
* ??? any others that you can give me?
CONS
* I'll get sweaty by the time I get anywhere and won't necessarily have a shower available at the end of the trip (that's the most girly one!)
* Long distances would be tricky
* I'm not sure I'd be comfortable riding at night
* How would I get my groceries home??
* ??? any others?
Thanks so much for your help in advance...
