My girlfriend lives this philosophy of minimalism, and I try to follow it as well. She&#x27;s had to move at least once a year every year for the past 8 years, and she brings her stuff down to two suitcases each time (with no storage anywhere else).<p>I&#x27;m not as regular at it as she is, but I go through &#x27;stuff cleansings&#x27; about once a year. I probably have 4 suitcases&#x2F;boxes, along with some stuff stored at my parents&#x27;s place in India.<p>Living minimally is very freeing. It allows you have to a low maintenance lifestyle, while giving you a sense of security. On the other hand, getting into any hobby becomes a trade ofd between buying and maintaining the equipment, or paying absurd amounts to rent it.
