I know I write a fair bit on 'minimalism' on here and the broad meaning that it has. I'm still not very good at it and am trying to find my way of minimalism. The move to a new country helped. I came with my 2 suitcases and 7 pairs of shoes. I came with …
I'm currently in the process of moving. Moving is such an experience. Mostly a bad one. Who knew how much stuff one has accumulated and don't even get me started on the amount of computer cables that seem to have multiplied in their box. I've also come to learn that things are almost quite worthless …
In one of my last few post, I wrote about my conundrum on what should we do with our last legged clothes. I was having a conversation with someone about this and was reminded of this segment that I had previously seen where clothes were being recycled. Everyone, meet Professor Veena Sahajwalla who is turning …
