Letting Go

The greatest step towards a life of simplicity is to learn to let go. – Steve Maraboli

This year for me is all about letting go. My career, this beautiful country, my sweet furry companion and most of my possessions. Whew! I keep telling myself to just breath..

Spring Cleaning

Spring has finally arrived and it is time for a Spring cleaning ritual of all my things. I am definitely channeling Marie Kondo @konmari.co.

I have spent most of my life collecting things that give me joy and tell a story of where I've been or the experience I encountered while obtaining it. Detaching from my things has been challenging but incredibly freeing .

I am gifting my things to friends and neighbors and I love doing this! I find myself telling them the story of how I came to own it. It's great fun for me and it helps me to let go. I am feeling lighter by the minute!

My challenge is how to downsize my life into a few boxes and a suitcase of clothes that will be shipped to Texas for safe keeping. My goal is to start my travels next year with a 40L bag that I can carryon most international or local flights. Seriously, how many pair of underwear and socks do you REALLY need?!!

Happy Spring cleaning!
