Introduction to Minimalism
In 2013 and 2014, I embarked on a journey to explore minimalism, discovering resources like The Minimalists’ website, www.theminimalists.com. Their insightful blog posts and engaging posts on their X account (formally Twitter), @TheMinimalists, became sources of inspiration. At that time, my goal was to purchase a flat in London, but financial constraints forced me to consider smaller studio flats. Coincidentally, Joshua and Ryan were touring London with their book during this period, which presented an ideal opportunity to seek their insights.
On October 8, 2014, I set off for Battersea Park Station, navigating my way to a warehouse in SW11. Despite the discomfort of my shoes, I was determined to meet them in person. Looking back, I realize the importance of planning better and wearing comfortable footwear for that 25-minute night walk. That evening, I bought a copy of their book and had the privilege of meeting both authors. I cherished the experience of receiving their personalized signatures and engaging with them and other attendees.
