Equipment

Since the beginning of April I’ve been living nomadically full-time. Everything I’ve got I carry on my person from place to place when I’m on the move. I’ve gotten pretty fast at packing (twenty minutes when moving leisurely). My relationship with stuff has shown up several times in this blog, travelling (travelling, travelling) and in my Chicago apartment. There might be others; I’ll link them as I find them. The summary is that I find having stuff stressful and love to get rid of things. When I was in high school and using Reddit still, I loved r/minimalism and its associated websites. People would post manifests of all their posessions, or better yet, photos of everything they had. It seemed ideal to me to have such a life in a capsule; I think of all my stuff as the accessories that come with the Preston action figure. So here’s the current list; I’ll try to keep this updated over time, and add in stories and details about each of the items as I feel like it.
