Waking up in your own bed, home

Upper left corner, 10:16am, 14 minutes from wheels up.

Everything you own that seems important to you is at your home.

Living away from that is a masterclass in stoic simplification.

i was probably between 55-60 years old when i first coined one on my favorite mantras…

Only pack what you can carry.

If it’s checked luggage, perhaps it’s too much.

Bonus: When i travel, my goal is one “kiddie-daypack”. If i need more stuff, i’ll take a second “kiddie-backpack”. The second one i wear across my chest. This process leaves me hands-free. Handsfree is an extraordinary way to travel.
