I’ve done without a car for several years by choice. With my mom’s getting older, I’ve had to become more involved with her care and now have to use a car to get her out to run her errands, doctor’s appointments, etc. I most definitely miss the years before mom got more needy, when I could do my daily hour walk that I’d done for years. I’m fortunate I work from home. I’m fortunate I’m located within walking distance of most places and have a bus line just across the street. Beyond the benefits listed above, I believe it gives you the realization that you probably could make it just fine without a vehicle if you had to. I wouldn’t miss driving myself much at all.

That is a nice thing about living in Japan. Public transportation is great, and you do not need a car if you live in a city. I just use trains, my bike or walk everywhere. Great for the body and wallet!

I totally agree with this~ Walking is wonderful exercise, stress relief, keeps weight down, is free, and clears the mind. I prefer being outside to exercising inside!
