Booked a 3-month stay in Lisbon on a whim, now I get the slow travel thing

Used to plan every city like a checklist, 4 days here, 5 days there, packing and unpacking nonstop. Last fall I booked one apartment in Lisbon for 90 days just to see what stuck. The difference is huge, I actually know the barista's name, I have a gym routine, and my rent dropped to 700 euro a month on a non-tourist street. The first 2 weeks felt slow and weird, then my brain finally stopped treating the trip like a vacation. Has anyone else switched to longer stays and found their budget or mental health got better?
