😃😄 21 items only??! Mehennn, that's indeed extremely minimal. Owning just few items has its advantages just as you've stated.
Hmm, my pick from this would actually be learning to own only the things that's needed at the moment and discard them when you're not longer in need of them and then get something else you're in need of.
I feel that's probably the way you've been able to maintain your minimalist lifestyle.
So my question is, does been a minimalist also has to influence the amount you spend of getting things? e.g purchasing an item.
I hardly buy anything unless it's essentials or investment.
