It depends a bit what couldn’t afford means in your context, but I would recommend paying for your own (cheap) domain. That way you can move between email providers if for example Google suddenly bundles AI in its plan and becomes too expensive. The whole package would come to ca. 30€/year here in Norway.

The climate here is not economically competitive, we have fairly large toll walls and subsidies to protect local farmers. In a completely free market, most food production would be outcompeted by foreign goods. This does of course make food much more expensive for us than strictly needed, but it also gives a safe supply.

It does not work on my work-computer, since office macros and some formatting renders differently across versions. Other required software constraints make windows unusable for me.

We have Grans Cola and extra cola here in Norway, probably a lot more as well, but shipping them internationally would probably not be worth the hassle if you have local produce. I can recommend club mate cola for import, its strange enough not to be too commonplace.

Now I dont know much about simple living as a movement, but how do you then avoid digital cluttering? At least for me, digital bookkeeping had become a significant part of my daily work.
