Beautiful read. I’m going to take note of some of these books.
I’m in the process of minimizing, selling, and donating items at my parents’ home in San Diego. I can’t imagine actually emptying out this house one day. I’m not sure how many hundred of books my mom owns. That must have been such a process.
Following your journey am wondering if we’ll bump into each other in Barcelona. FYI there are many great English language books stores here. I like Hibernian in my neighborhood of Gracia.
Just realized my comment wasn’t acknowledging the real point of your post. Sorry. Yes change is so very hard and often the bigger the change the harder and entangled it is with our emotions. Good for you
Letting go of books and vinyl was almost the hardest. Then came this:

Love this but do wonder what happened to my art.

Hi Mathew! I know Hibernian, and I think most of the other ones in Barcelona :) - I've made a point to go visit them all.
