Too much stuff
Nina sent me a link to an essay by Paul Graham about stuff and having too much of it. A very enjoyable read, and a big plus was the complete absence of the horrible expression simple living.
I first realized the worthlessness of stuff when I lived in Italy for a year. All I took with me was one large backpack of stuff. The rest of my stuff I left in my landlady’s attic back in the US. And you know what? All I missed were some of the books. By the end of the year I couldn’t even remember what else I had stored in that attic.
Read all of it right here.







Yeah, that’s amazing that I miss nothing of my things left in SPb! Well, maybe only crafts supplies
Sounds like moving your stuff from St. Petersburg will be an easy task!
