Everyone has a drawer filled with small reminders, movie tickets and little things like that, but since I started my minimalist journey I was able to reduce all those little memories, I now only own one small box with all my little souvenirs and other random things that I can't get rid of because of sentimental value.
It was not easy to fit all the nick-nacks inside a small box, that will probably grow in the future, but I did it and I'm so happy about it. Inside I have a few tickets, some memorabilia that I got on my trips, some travel guides, postcards, magnets, letters and small toys from my childhood and travels.
I no longer feel the need to keep stuff to remind me of precious memories. And I no longer bring souvenirs from my trips, a trick that I have for that is to buy something that you can wear or enjoy on a daily basis on your trip, for example, I bought a gorgeous ring from my trip to Mykonos that I wear all the time!

You only have one box of memories? That's so amazing! I'm so attached to those types of things, I have dolls, old games.. and so many photos!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could be more like you!
xo, Emma.
You don't need to have a small box like mine, you can have a big box!
DeleteAs long as you feel comfortable and don't regret getting rid of things, it's all that matters.. not the size of the box ;D
