I completely understand! Even though now i have a house, I still don´t have a lot of ¨stuff¨. I could pack everything i need in a backpack and leave. I like having a home, but living abroad gives me the feeling of freedom, plus stability. I think in the US and Canada we are so heavily focused on ¨things¨ they weigh us down. At least here in Colombia they value quality time with friends/family over things, and most have very little. Recently my phone has broken, and I havent run out to get a new one, I dont think i will... or wait a while, having a phone detox is nice.
