I live alone and I'm just wasting away my time here. It's actually making me very depressed to be honest. I do live in the city which makes think there ought to be at least something to do out here. Though I can't really afford to spent money on it every day.

So unless it's like a one time purchase or if the costs are actually that low. What do you think I should do?

My first thought is going for walks around where you live. If there are green spaces along the way that's even better. You can turn it into kind of a workout where you do longer and longer walks, or the same length but a little faster each time.

It's a good way to clear your mind, it also never hurts to be active.

Some more variants if a workout isn't your thing

take photos on your phone when you see something nice
contribute to OpenStreetMap by doing quests on StreetComplete (you answer questions about things you walk past)
Geocaching, if you live somewhere with things to find

Pokémon Go is also an option!
