MINIMALISM : our extreme experiment | 2 years without a home

this saturday – the 12th of march – it’s going to be exactly 2 years since we left london. and that means that we’ve spent 2 whole years without a home of our own.
it’s almost surreal to think about.

on saturday exactly 1 year ago, i wrote the very first column on this blog, and that was called 1 year without a home. writing that a year ago, i don’t think i could even have imagined going for another whole year. but here we are.

and it’s not over yet folks, we still don’t have a place of our own here in berlin. we certainly haven’t made it easy for us, moving to another country again. but still, looking out the window at a sunny berlin park, i wouldn’t have it any other way.

in that column from 1 year ago, i listed 3 lessons i’ve learnt about myself from this experiment. so i thought i’d go through those lessons, and see if they still hold. take a look !

here’s to hoping that i next year won’t make a video or column called ‘3 years without a home’.
if you hear of any berlin apartments in need of a lovely swedish couple, let me know.
