Your comment touched on a lot of notes and I'm having trouble writing my thoughts down.
Everything expires, the stuff/mementos I saved in my teens is now gone. My situation only speeds this process up due to practical reasons. If gifts reach my dumping ground I do care about them, I'm just very liberal with words.
I have no intention of returning even just to my home country, nor of collecting my stuff from there. Nomadism taught me to be minimal and even if "I settle" it doesn't mean I will start hoarding stuff.
Given how long I've been at it, I disagree that it's not sustainable. The only "end" I see to my situation is that I find someone who convinces my heart to do it. But I'm too picky to settle, both with places and with people. Now that's the issue.
> it's worth recognising the privileged position you're in
Absolutely, but my point was only that people do not need a lot of stuff, and that applies to unprivileged people even more so than it does to me.
