In Zhuzhou, In Hunan Province, An 18-Year-Old Girl Gained Attention By Showing She Lives In A 6 M² Bathroom, Paying Per Month To Live There And Save Money

An 18-year-old girl, identified as Yang, gained prominence on Chinese social media recently by showcasing her life inside a bathroom. An employee at a furniture store in Zhuzhou, Hunan Province, she decided to turn the 6 m² space into her home to save on rent, according to The Economic Times.

Yang pays her boss the equivalent of R$ 37 per month to live there. The video in which she shows her routine in the small bathroom went viral on the Douyin platform, the Chinese version of TikTok.

In the small space, the young woman organizes all the basic functions of a home. She sleeps on a foldable bed, which also serves as a lock for the door, preventing curious onlookers from entering.

The store owner even offered the office as an alternative for her to sleep. However, as the room has no doors, Yang preferred to stay in the bathroom, where she feels safer and more secure.

The young woman earns around R$ 2,320 monthly. From that amount, approximately R$ 307 is allocated to expenses, including the symbolic ‘rent’ for the space.

Dream Of Independence

Despite the unusual situation, Yang claims to be satisfied with her decision because she can save a good portion of her salary.

She aims to save enough in the future to buy her own house or a car.

The case generated significant discussion on Chinese social media, dividing opinions between those who praise her determination and those who criticize the working and living conditions shown in the video.

Cambodia has started digging a nearly 180-kilometer canal to connect the Mekong River directly to the sea and reduce its dependence on the ports of neighboring Vietnam.

Scientists considered detonating 213 nuclear bombs in the Sahara to create an artificial sea the size of El Salvador, with each explosion being a hundred times more powerful than the Hiroshima bomb, and the goal was to generate more energy than Egypt’s largest hydroelectric plant.

The domino effect of US sanctions reaches cards in Cuba, bringing down Visa and Mastercard and exposing a new obstacle for the island’s economy.

The solid-state battery, promised for years as the future of electric cars, is finally starting to move from the laboratory to mass production.

An illegal mountain of waste 6 meters high and 10,000 tons has emerged in England, threatens to catch fire, could cost millions to remove, and exposes how illegal dumping has become a business for criminals.
