RE: A few reflections on minimalism and why it’s so difficult to get rid of some of my stuff….
I’m aiming to reduce my stuff down to one small van load which would mean I could easily move my stuff and rent out my house, in case I either want to go travelling (I’m kind of getting the urge.)
Great plan m8. It's always good to be minimal if you have the travel urge. also you have a better chance of being able to make good money air b'n'bing your abode as most people like the clean, cream minimalist style.
I recently moved out of a flat into a bedsit so my place is like a minimalists idea of hell ;-)
Hopefully that was a voluntary move rather than being forced into it!

Not really a voluntary move if I'm honest. I didn't have to move but I couldn't afford to pay the rent at old place. Well, I did pay the rent but just ended up in massive debt to electric and had to leave that address so I could even have a chance to start to pay my debts. Got offered a smaller, cheaper (bedsit 😔) in a nice area so jumped at it.
It's not bad but I get cabin fever something's cause it's so small and you're basically living in one room 😂

At least it's in a nice area! I'd probably get cabin fever also, but I guess you've gotta live somewhere you can actually afford!
I really want to go proper off-grid and just put up a yurt and some solar panels in a field, but it's just so much hassle in the UK.
Ha ha, I'm with you on that m8. The closest I've come is to go wild camping in Wales. That was pretty awesome... but I don't think I could live like that fur long. It was nice watching the sunrise from the top of the cliff above Aber falls though.... while eating a pack of cheap ramen noodles 🍜 for breakfast 🙂

Sounds ideal - But you need a wood burner and a floor to be comfortable long term!
