    Wow - a very rare UA-cam channel that uses the proper term of minimising/minimizing [not 'minimalizing'] to describe the action of purging excess belongings.
    Isn't it so very meaningful, and personally rewarding, when we reach the level of maturity and self-awareness that we can make such decisions rather quickly and with confidence?
    Excellent job!
    And don't be too harsh on yourself for the generous "pink environment"; it can still be used in combination with say -- white or grey or silver or powder blue or mint green [perhaps thin vertical or horizontal stripes - or both, to make a pretty faux plaid?] over the top of the existing] that would reduce the pink, but still look lovely. I have a powder room done in the palest mint green on the painted walls and then baby pink in the towels and 1 or 2 accent items. The pastels make it not so wearisome over time, and is easily changed up whenever I feel like it.

      Haha, it's so funny you mention that because it makes me cringe so much when I hear people say minimalizing rather than minimising 😂 Thank you so much for the advice about my bedroom, in the end I painted the big bright pink wall white but left the other three pale pink, I kept my pink cushions too. Your powder room sounds lovely, I love the colour mint green. 😊

    i love the minimalism and i learn a lot seeing videos like it, but the most loving thing that i can proudly remark is that in every minimalist house there are cats. They are the most beautyful and wise company

      Vivi Minimal What an awesome observation! I totally agree, cats are such calming and wise creatures. I love them so much, couldn't live without animals in my life! Even when I lived away I would always stay in airbnbs who had pets. 😂 Really happy to hear you enjoyed this video, thank toy so much for your comment! 😊❤️

    I only just found your channel today. Loved watching all the what I ate videos. Looks like you had some awesome adventures on your travels. And I am in LOVE with your instagram account. Minimalist travel definitely makes you realize how little you really need. Good job on tackling it.

      Hey Libby, I think because you had watched this video and commented ,it came up in my You Tube list of recommendations . Is You Tube clever or is it watching us all too much?? I'm glad you found this channel because I have loved it too. x

      Hi there! :D Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed my other videos and my Instagram account, that's really lovely to hear. :) I totally agree, travelling really makes you reconsider what's important to you, it was horrible knowing I had my room to sort out when I got home but I actually enjoyed the process... although I wouldn't want to have to do it ever again. I don't know where my enthusiasm came from, haha! 😂 Thanks for the love!

    • @Livingthelifeyoulove

      Helloo there, I'm so glad you found me! Sometimes it's hard to be found in the world of youtube, especially as a newbie so it's awesome that you did! Thank you so much for watching and commenting, it means the world to me.

    This is the first video of yours that I have watched, I really loved it! I myself, have not been in any sort of situation where I would have to pack lightly, but you have really motivated me to clean out my dresser and closet, there are many good items of clothing that could be put to better use by somebody else.

    • @Livingthelifeyoulove
      @Livingthelifeyoulove  7 років тому +1

      I'm so happy that you enjoyed it! :) It's nice to have a little clear out every once in a while and I totally agree with you about giving them to somebody who needs them. ❤️

      @Livingthelifeyoulove  7 років тому

      I used the Kon Mari method I kept things that 'sparked joy' :) I might do a video about it in the future, thank you so much for the suggestions i'll add them to my little list. 😄

    Oh wow, this is the first time I'm watching one of your older videos and I just have to say that I love your curly hair! But you are and look beautiful either way :-)

  • @CorinRae
    @CorinRae 5 років тому

    I'm a sucker for decluttering videos (and I'm in luck, because I *just* got a notification that you uploaded a new one!) I chuckled when you opened and closed the sock drawer multiple times, like you didn't want to deal with it 😄

    • @Livingthelifeyoulove
      @Livingthelifeyoulove  5 років тому +1

      Yaaay! This is a really old one but one of my faves to re-watch as so much has changed since then! Lol at the sock drawer, what a nightmare 😂🙈💛

    I love drawers - the inside of my wardrobe is all drawers at the bottom and rails at the top. I think drawers are so much more neat and tidy than shelves. Btw I own like 5 socks and I live in Switzerland but I just hate socks 😒

    • @Livingthelifeyoulove
      @Livingthelifeyoulove  7 років тому

      I agree, they look so much tidier don't they! Hahahah I was horrified when I saw how many socks i've hoarded over the years 😂 I now own about 5 pairs too which is much better! 😂

      I painted the bright pink one white but left the other three pale pink! :) I filmed the rest of my decluttering in another video where I attack my pink wall! 😄😂 ua-cam.com/video/R6GkmQOerls/v-deo.html

    It's funny, but when I came back from 8months traveling I felt exactely the same. I think I got rid of 4 washing baskets full of clothes 🙈 and still have too much but it feels so good to declutter your wardrobe/room whatever. Funny how much we think we need and in reality really don't use.

    • @Livingthelifeyoulove
      @Livingthelifeyoulove  6 років тому

      Oh wow ahhaah that's amazing to hear! It really does feel amazing doesn't it, and I feel like when you travel it's so much easier because you're already detached from it all 😀

  • @sarahbannon4752
    @sarahbannon4752 7 років тому +1

    I would flip the wardrobe around so your clothes are more accessible and can breathe.

    • @Livingthelifeyoulove

      That's a really good point! I might try it and see how I find it. :)

    • @Livingthelifeyoulove
      @Livingthelifeyoulove  7 років тому +2

      Oh gosh, it happens to the best of us! I think I would be the same but I had a bit of a clear out before I left to go travelling so it wasn't as bad, although I still had LOTS of clothes left. 😂 Good luck on your mission, you've got this! 😀

  • @beatriceclaire5800

    Can I ask how old you are now? And old you are when you went travelling. I'm 23 and living back with my parents and hoping to go solo travelling next year.

    • @Livingthelifeyoulove
      @Livingthelifeyoulove  6 років тому

      I'm also 23! 😊 I went travelling at the age of 21, i'm so excited that you're thinking of travelling too. It's a life changing experience!

      Ashley Burton if you're from the UK then you can get them from Asda, if not I'm sure you should be able to find them online somewhere or maybe in Supermarkets that sell clothes. 😊 They are super comfy.
