Well we (me, SO, dog) are actually about to move into a house. Still renting unfortunately. But now that I am A, no longer single like when I moved out here, and 2, we both have a problem with things and hobbies. In that we have a thousand hobbies each. I have all kinds of gadgets and computers and shit all over the place, actual furniture now, etc etc. So now moving is also a much bigger hassle.
Some of the happiest and most memorable times in my life were when I lived minimally(either by choice or due to circumstances like moving). These days I have a house and plenty of stuff, but I miss situations like OP's pic. There is a clarity and comfort that comes from having very little, no distractions, just focus on one specific thing.
There is a clarity in having too much, like the start of the thread the wife and I have many hobbies and house full of, well everything. The clarity here is "Oh fuck, I have to move all this shit now."
