3 months ago, I boarded a plane that would fly me to a country I have never been to before. My family and I just bid farewell to Singapore, our 2nd home for the last 6 years and I was embarking into yet another new adventure.

5 REASONS WHY EXPATS SHOULD PRACTICE THE KONMARI METHOD
Early this year, Netflix released the series "Tidying Up with Marie Kondo". I was very excited because I am a fan of Marie Kondo, a well-known Japanese organising consultant & responsible for the explosion of the minimalism & decluttering trend. She created the KonMari concept for decluttering your space. I have read her book, The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up and I am loving what she is preaching. She is all keeping stuff that only spark joy and discarding, giving away & … [Read more...]
