Longevity: Pondering Life’s Extra Innings

What are your thoughts on the concept of living a very long life? Hey there, fellow wanderer! I’m sitting here with a mug of steaming coffee, musing over something that’s been on my mind lately—living a very long life. Now, let me be real with you, this isn’t your usual travel content chat, but hey, life isn’t just about the destinations we explore, right? Imagine this: you’re trekking through…

Lessons I've learnt as a new minimalist

Only buy second hand clothing unless unsanitary (e.g; underwear) or impossible to do so because it helps small innocent businesses & is much cheaper

Repair much loved items instead of repurchasing it brand new because it's usually more affordable

Attempt designing & crafting some clothing, accessories, bags by yourself or ask someone to (e.g; mother, aunt) because you can utilise a creative skill/hobby which also costs less

Only buy things that are timeless or vintage as it will never go out of style because these last a lifetime unlike trends

If you'll only use it once, try to borrow it from someone else instead of wasting money on buying it because it saves space & money

If you experience all 4 seasons, no more than 8 pairs of shoes are necessary.

Create your personal unique uniform in 1 colour palette. (i.e blouse & skinny jeans or sweaters & mom jeans...) Make it your signature style despite feeling repetitive.

Instead of buying artificial hair masks, serums, weightless oils e.t.c improve hair naturally with routinely organic oil masks

If all of your makeup can't fit in to 1 cosmetic bag it's maybe too much. No more than 1 (maybe 2) of each product is necessary.

You can wash clothes by hand & ditch the washing machine because it saves space, time, & money

You can toast bread on a stove & ditch the toaster because It wastes space while the stove can serve the same/similar function & at a faster rate.

Take pictures of the things you love if you're ready to get rid of it. This way it'll always be with you & cherished without the clutter of owning it

Always tidy up after yourself immediately. Do not delay this & allow mess to pile up for more than a few hours. Wake up a little earlier if necessary to allow more time

Make use of decorative candles (evening during the day time, only rely on natural light rather than switching on light bulbs to save money on electricity bills

Take quicker showers to save more money on water bills

Write down your day's plan/to do list a night in advance to save on a lot of time

my first *conscious* low-waste purchase. I needed a hand soap replacement in the bathroom and found this beautiful glass one at TJMaxx the other day. I love it, it's very sleek, and simple. When this runs out, I will be refilling it at my local co-op from the bulk section to help with the overwhelming amount of plastics being carelessly thrown out. It's not much, but it is my contribution. Also found this charcoal soap there with paper wrapping and only a few organic ingredients. Can't wait to try this one out! I say conscious because I have several things that are no-waste but those were either made or purchased before knowing anything about the zero-waste movement. I will not claim to be or become zero-waste but I will aim to be LOW-waste wherever I possibly can. . . . . . . . . . . #minimalist #minimalistjourney #goingminimal #RRR #recycling #donate #declutter #nomoreclutter #gettingridofcrap #minimal #minbegin #minimalism #decluttering #zerowaste #lowwaste https://www.instagram.com/p/Bpmp-D_hDSa/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1kdsapaqmw4j9

I only own two pairs of bed sheets, do you really need more ? I’m obsessed with pillow but I try not to buy them. All the pillows and bed covers I own are from 3 year ago when I moved into my first apartment. My current bed cover had some holes so I sewed them up and it looks like new. I moved into this apartment about 4 months ago and I’m glad to say that I didn’t get much stuff except the furniture since I didn’t have any. Owning less stuff clears your head, helps you focus on what’s important. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #zerowaste #zerowasteliving #zerowastehome #minimalist #minimalism #minimalistjourney #bedroomdecor #bedroomgoals #bedroom #lifestyle

Minimalism

I was afraid to throw it out there that the Queen of clutter was about to start a minimalist journey. In just one months time my closet is about half the size it was, I actually have place to store the crap I own, and I’ve saved about 2,000$. Yikes!

I’ve stuck to two rules: Donate/ recycle/ throw out at least one bag of stuff a week

Before I get to the register at a store I go through everything I have and determine what is an impulse buy and put those items aside.

Things are only going smoothly.... if only I could get my mom to stop giving me the makeup and skin care products she doesn’t want anymore.

Things I never plan on buying as a minimalist

Car & driving lessons: Uncomfortable with being in front of a wheel due to hazards, but it’s also unhealthy, expensive, slow, & bad for the environment so I prefer walks & transport

Alcohol and drugs: Something I’ve never consumed or ever will for religious reasons

Television: this would be a useless waste of space that collects dust as I don’t watch any shows. When I’m bothered I watch old movies on my laptop but do plan to buy a projector for movie nights. I’m against a tv which promotes time wasting on screens. Prefer having conversations than to turn on the tv for background noise

ipad/tablet: A useless invention when I already own a smartphone and a laptop that has all the same features as an iPad or tablet

AirPods: Another useless creation when earphones exist that are cheaper and don’t require charging (wastes energy on bills) and eats up data while in, as well as reducing phone battery life thereby forcing one to charge phone more wastimg further energy on bills

Smartwatch: Not only is this a very unattractive watch but it’s pointless multi functions almost defeat the purpose of a smartphone. One smart device is already more than enough.

Alexa: A way to bring clutter in to home, waste money and promote lazy unhealthy habits. Not for me.

Designer items: Serve no higher purpose compared to unbranded items. These are unnecessary and simply a waste of money which is something I can never justify or understand. Suggests insecure behaviour by gaining some self worth from a label.

Music subscriptions: Spending money on the phone itself, data allowance, probably AirPods, maybe insurance, WiFi service, now music subscriptions too. As long as music is available on YouTube for free I’ll never pay for music that’s accessible on the internet.

Books: I’m a book lover and a firm believer in borrowing books from the library. Once I read a book there’s absolutely no reason for it to bring clutter in my home so I hope to never buy books as long as libraries exist. I read more frequently knowing there’s a deadline that needs to be met and love the extra walks to the library

Getting Rid of 5 Bags of Clothes

Heavy burden lifted! I got rid of FIVE bags of clothing!! #Minimalism #MinimalistJourney

Sometime last year, I came across an article of minimalism on Facebook. Read it, seemed interesting, Next! Then one day, I was scrolling through Netflix and came across  Minimalism: A Documentary About the Important Things. This documentary was eye opening. I reflected on my own personal life, the excess of things, the clutterness. Little by little, I began to get rid of things I no longer used…
