After more than a month of Fat Cat's d.eath, recently, another guy appeared who also worked very hard for the person he loved. He can even accept a miserable life, like a wanderer saving m.oney to meet his lover who lives hundreds of kilometers away.

That guy is Hoang (35 years old), a salesman in Beijing, China. His girlfriend lives in Thai Nguyen city (Shan Tay province), 500 km from Beijing.

For the past 12 years, Hoang has lived as a "Beijing wanderer" - a phrase that refers to people who live outside the city and go to the inner city to work. Every Friday, he leaves his car in Beijing and takes the train to Thai Nguyen city to meet his girlfriend. He spends his weekends with his lover and pet dog. At 3:00 a.m. Monday morning, he boarded the train to return to the office in time to work at 9:30 a.m. Last summer, Hoang was still living in a village on the outskirts of the city, paying a monthly rent of 2,000 yuan (7 million VND) before the most serious flood in 150 years in July destroyed his house and property. Older brother.

After the flood, Hoang decided to live in his car because he couldn't afford to rent a house in the city center. It is known that an apartment in central Beijing costs at least 10,000 yuan (35 million) a month.

Living in the suburbs, Hoang spends 4 hours commuting every day, sometimes having to leave at 4 a.m. to get to the office on time. Switching to living in a car, it only took Hoang 20 minutes to drive to work.

Hoang makes the most of every space in the car. He left a map recording places where overnight parking was allowed without penalty, public bathrooms and stadiums. There is a cup of water in the middle of the front seat, and an outdoor power outlet is located in the upper passenger seat.

In addition, a folding bed for sleeping is stored in the trunk. At night, Hoang leans the back of the rear passenger seat down to have a place to sleep. In the cold winter, he uses a sleeping bag stored on the roof of the car.

Hoang said he prefers living in his car rather than renting the windowless houses he used to rent before. At first, his girlfriend urged him to rent a new place, but gradually she got used to his lifestyle.

"After all, renting a house alone in Beijing doesn't make much sense. Home is where the family is," Hoang said in his video on Douyin (China's version of TikTok).

However, Hoang was still embarrassed to tell his friends that he slept in the car, his girlfriend was the only one who knew about this. "Thinking about seeing my girlfriend on weekends helps me endure life in the car," Hoang said.

Although Hoang has not revealed his monthly income in Beijing, it can be seen that the average salary in Beijing is twice that of Thai Nguyen. Furthermore, living in a car saves more than 1,000 yuan per month compared to renting a house, even though the train ticket costs 1,400-1,600 yuan (190-220 USD).
