Packing Up: What We're Bringing to Paradise
The Great Purge
Moving to Belize means downsizing - big time. We’re going from a 2,000 sq ft house to a much simpler lifestyle. Here’s what we learned about packing for paradise.
What We’re Bringing
- Electronics: Laptops, cameras for YouTube, solar chargers
- Clothes: Light, breathable fabrics (goodbye winter coats!)
- Documents: All important papers, digitized and backed up
- Sentimental Items: Photos, a few keepsakes
What We’re Leaving Behind
- Most furniture (buying locally supports the community)
- Heavy appliances
- 80% of our clothes
- Randy’s snowboard collection (sad but necessary)
Lessons Learned
You don’t need as much as you think. The freedom of living with less is already exciting!
Pro tip: If you haven’t used it in 6 months, you probably don’t need it.
