I just spent 164,000 won mailing 64kgs of crap across to japan (2 of the damn boxes were 22kilos so they had to go air mail Sad)

This still leaves four snowboards, snowboard boots, and a couple of weeks worth of clothes (as well as odds and sods) which i have to carry across on the ferry. So i reckon... no. Definitely not a minimalist. Ive only been here 2 damn years Smile

I have a lot more stuff than I did in Canada. Mainly because I've never been anything but a kid growing up or a starving student living off of student loans when I lived there. When I came to Korea and started earning a high salary (comparatively), I started owning significantly more than what I did in Canada.

I have a desktop computer, a vehicle, lots of accessories, electronics, dishes and so forth. My furniture is owned by my school but I have owned a lot of my own furniture in the course of my time here.
