Car is not for minimalist?

…that apparently includes a secondary/holiday home abroad (which you’re hardly using by your own admission).

I think it does not fit a minimalist and frugal lifestyle.
But you may want to spend that much nonetheless.

Luxury purchases often make you happy for a couple of days or weeks - after which your happiness will revert to your previous level.

Even if groceries in Italy cost half as much as in Switzerland - would you be spending 14’000 a year in Switzerland?
