While resetting my life, I got rid of most of my possessions and without even realising I passed the 100 Thing Challenge. I love what Ronan wrote about “not owning shit”.
在重新安排我的生活时,我扔掉了大部分财产,甚至没有意识到我通过了100件事的挑战。我喜欢罗南写的“不拥有狗屎”。

Depending on what you count I got rid of about 320 kg or 700 lbs of stuff equaling about 200 things. I now live with about 5 kg (11 lbs) or 30 items and have a few boxes totaling 20 kg (45 lbs) in storage. It’s a very refreshing thought to know I have this little and I’d like to keep it this way for awhile. With most stuff going digital now, such as books, music and other devices, I really do not need much except for my MacBook.
根据你的计算,我扔掉了大约320公斤或700磅的东西,相当于大约200件东西。我现在住着大约5公斤(11磅)或30件物品,并有几个箱子共20公斤(45磅)的存储。这是一个非常令人耳目一新的想法,知道我有这么一点,我想保持这种方式一段时间。现在大多数东西都是数字化的,比如书、音乐和其他设备,除了我的MacBook,我真的不需要太多。

I obviously make use of the resources of others to eat and drink outside, although since I live in Thailand now, that is cheaper than doing it myself.
我显然是利用别人的资源在外面吃喝,虽然因为我现在住在泰国,这比自己做便宜。

I am well aware of some of the hypocrisy of the minimalist lifestyle.
我很清楚极简主义生活方式的一些虚伪。

I’m a privileged white male European with income and savings. That’s an easy position to be in to get rid of all your stuff. I have the luxury of being able to buy the food I need from the 7 Eleven around the corner or walking into a restaurant to have someone make me food, whereas most people in the world need to stock up large volumes of food to be able to afford eating at all. In an emergency I have a creditcard to fall back on while most people in this world do not. There’s a reason you see homeless people in America hoarding stuff, it’s because that’s all they have and they need it to survive.
我是一个有收入和储蓄的欧洲白色男性。这是一个简单的位置是在摆脱所有你的东西。我可以在街角的7 - 11便利店买到我需要的食物,或者走进一家餐馆让别人给我做食物,而世界上大多数人需要储存大量的食物才能吃得起。在紧急情况下,我有一张信用卡可以依靠,而世界上大多数人都没有。你看到美国无家可归的人囤积东西是有原因的,因为这是他们所有的东西,他们需要它来生存。

I have funds to survive and that’s a huge privilege. I am well aware of this. Nonetheless, I still feel this lifestyle is better than the endless consumerism we suffer from in the West where buying and hoarding stuff (that doesn’t actually make you happy) has now become the de facto standard.
我有足够的钱生存,这是一个巨大的特权。我很清楚这一点。尽管如此,我仍然觉得这种生活方式比我们在西方所遭受的无休止的消费主义要好,在西方,购买和囤积东西(实际上并不能让你快乐)已经成为事实上的标准。
