If it was a private secure carpark, I wonder if you could set up a tent there? Take showers at a nearby gym and use a pocket WiFi to stay online. But I guess cooking and electricity would be an issue though.
I was a broke adolescent back in 2011, but now I am a working adult with some disposable income. So the image is accurate.
Thanks for sharing, did you stick with the same tutor throughout the 2 years?
