A success! Now we’re rolling

So in my previous post I mentioned that I was selling stuff to fund my trip, and that I was knocked back.

Today I received payment for the coat, which auctioned at a good price, and I popped it into the post and it was whisked off away to Germany.

About a week ago I wrote off the coat as a possession of my own, and it was simply an item that I had to post someone after they paid for it.

I’ve begun looking at my other possessions recently as well. My dvd collection, my books, most of my clothes.

Heaven forfend – even my hats.

I realize that if I’m going to be moving to another country, either I’d have to pay a bunch of money to transport all my shit over there or I can sell it and make my possessions work for me.

I’m moving to another country: I might as well make a fresh start.

So here’s to fresh starts, strong starts, and keeping that momentum up.

    If you’re selling your DVD’s then could I inquire on the following: Accelerator, Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill’s, Matrix, Fear and Loathing?

    I’ll put up a list here in a while so people can pick through them and decide if they want to take some.

    I’ll post it on facebook too.

    Hey there, so glad things are on the up!
    We brought very little with us when we left Australia- 2 suitcases each; and we packed a minimum of stuff into storage. Now we are here longer term, I am thinking about all the things I can go and retrieve from our shipping container when I go back! Not everything… and some things that I thought I’d really miss are not the things I actually want to bring back but it’s nice to know they are there still :)
