so you're sleeping on the floor, do sports in your work clothing and always eat out? they'd sure as hell wouldn't allow you to back your kitchen knives after all. or any of your cooking utensils for that matter.
a tv for gaming/television is also out of the question, they'd never let you take that along in your suitcase.
doesn't sound like a life i'd like to be honest.
in all seriousness, its perfectly fine to have stuff. just ask yourself before you buy it, wherever you'll still be using it in ~12 month or so. otherwise, its probably just a fad you shouldn't spent money on.
- dagw 9y agoI interpret it has fitting everything you want to take with you in a suitcase. Furniture, larger kitchen utensils etc. you can sell/donate/leave behind and get new when you arrive at your next place. And why won't they let you take you kitchen knives on a plane? I fly with kitchen knives all the time.

- dagw 9y agoObviously not as a carry on, but most airlines won't let you carry on a medium sized suitcase no matter what its contents.
- richardknop 9y agoI do the same as parent poster. Everything I own fits into a single large suitcase so I can just wake up one day and decide to buy a ticket to country X and fly. I have always rented serviced apartments so the bed sheets, cutlery and other equipment is always in the flat I rent so I use that. My sports clothes and other hobby equipment also fits into the single suitcase. I keep my clothes collection quite small, if I am not wearing something for a year I will throw it away or give to charity. You'd be surprised how useful it is to have all your stuff fit into single big suitcase if you love traveling around the world. It's very easy for me to travel or to move around the world for work. I had to help my sister move apartment recently and I was shocked by the massive amount of stuff she owns. So many suitcases and bags, we had to rent a big van to move it all. I don't get it.
- planteen 9y agoTo each their own. Some people want yards, pets, kids, and non-digital hobbies. All of these things lead to an accumulation of stuff and less flexibility in travel. I enjoy my cats, growing some of my own food, and hobbies with bulky items (snowboards, bikes, fishing poles, snowshoes).
- ksk 9y agoWhy does travel preclude accumulating stuff? Or do you mean changing your residence every X years?
- richardknop 9y agoYes, let's say you change job every two years and each time it's in different state/country (sometimes across continents). Then you are better off if you are a minimalist and haven't accumulated much stuff.
