Couple shares cost of living in mountains near Manali
A woman named Divya lives in the mountains with her partner, Saurabh.
They live near a beautiful place called Manali in Himachal Pradesh, India.
Divya makes videos for the internet, and she works from home.
That means she can live in the mountains instead of a big city.
She made a video showing how much it costs to live there.
Divya and Saurabh live in a big house with four bedrooms.
They need the extra space because they run a homestay, which is like a small guest house.
Divya said a smaller one-bedroom home costs about 15,000 rupees a month.
A two-bedroom home costs about 25,000 rupees a month.
She also talked about how much they spend on groceries, fuel, electricity, and internet.
