KISS BLOG IDEAS: WEEK #187 (Nov 22 - 28) | A probable backpack

Greetings, friends of #TheMinimalist.

Entering into your new proposal of ideas. I'll start by saying that I'm not one of those who believe in a kind of state of purity or extreme “ataraxia.” I like my flaws and imperfections, my shortcomings and excesses, my worldly pleasures, such as good wine and exquisite food.

So, in an imaginary scenario where I had to pack my backpack and retreat from the modern world (a difficult option at my age), I would choose some good books that I particularly appreciate, a notebook and pencil to write with, my camera, my cell phone to listen to certain music that is essential to me (and perhaps to be able to visually and audibly record what I find attractive in that place and time), and, of course, my essential medications, obviously a few changes of clothes, my progressive lenses, and my sunglasses. And now the backpack is already very heavy.

In short, I find your initiative very commendable and interesting. But perhaps I am not the best person to answer it. Thank you.
