No rucksack space for accessories like these…
When we headed out East we put our entire house in storage and travelled with just a rucksack and a small piece of hand luggage each. Not bad for more than half a year away! This obviously meant we had to clear out or leave a lot of ‘stuff’ behind, much of which I don’t miss at all. I have been thinking about all the stuff we surround ourselves with just because everyone else has it, and wondering about what I actually really miss.
There are a few things I do miss, being in a tiny matchbox of an apartment out here…
* Sofa (means I go to a lot of cafes)
* Oven/hob with more than one ring (means we eat out a lot)
* Garden (means I gravitate towards any public green space)
And a few things I brought that I am grateful for:
* iPad (because I get lost all the time)
* Decaf teabags
* Marmite
But there are also some things we don’t have that I don’t miss…
* Mobile phone
* TV
* Car
(* I still haven’t decided whether or not I miss my GHD straighteners…)
Can you imagine life without them? Maybe you could try it one day? I wonder what you would miss if you went away for a long while?
