Vivir solo/a

To live alone

意味

To reside without other people in the same household.

🌍

文化的背景

In Spain, the 'generación ni-ni' and high rent prices mean many people don't 'vivir solos' until their 30s. It is a major life event. Family is central. Living alone is often seen as a temporary stage before marriage, rather than a permanent lifestyle choice. In Buenos Aires, there is a strong culture of 'psicoanálisis' and independence. Living alone in a 'monoambiente' is a common urban experience. The term 'independizarse' is used with great pride. Living alone is often celebrated with a 'housewarming' party called 'inauguración'.
