Somewhere between 5 or 6 and 44 I'm guessing.
I find I very rarely mind not having lots of things. I moved country a year or so ago, planned to spend around 10k at IKEA, ended up getting tired and leaving after spending 3. Planned to get all those little things I "need" on another big trip. I never went back. Apparently I didn't need that pizza cutter after all.
I suspect most of us have much more than we really need. I suspect most of us do just fine with that. Some people it can be an improvement to remove some clutter, others it doesn't really matter.
I'd love to live out of a suitcase again, it really sets your priorities straight when you have to choose what to remove when you "need" something new.
Out of curiosity, what do you do in winter? Follow summer? or simply get a larger suitcase? (re the jacket conundrum)
- greggman 12y agoI moved countries a couple of times too and it was educational how much stuff I didn't miss, all my books for example, all my memorabilia as well. At the same time over time I did replace tons of stuff. Examples: Had to buy scissors, a tape dispenser, knives, pots and pans, lots of tools, serving dishes, cupcake sheets, cookie sheets, craft utensils, etc... All stuff I already had before I moved. As for the jacket I've just been carrying it the last 19 months.
