everything i use

i prefer to own just the things i need, and none of the things i don’t. that doesn’t mean sacrificing convencience - it means buying less, but buying more durable things. that keeps the price-per-use low and allows me to travel with everything, literally.


hardware that lasts. zero brand loyalty.
