    Almost one month ago, our family of four reached financial independence, retired early, and moved to Lisbon, Portugal. We sold practically everything we owned and flew from San Francisco to Lisbon, Portugal with only four suitcases - one for each of us! When we moved into our apartment in Lisbon, it was completely unfurnished. We knew that we wanted to furnish our apartment with a simple modern design based on minimalism. Basically, we designed our home with the idea that less is more. We wanted to maintain a clutter-free home with furniture that was intentionally placed and served a purpose. To date, we've been living in our home in Lisbon for about three weeks and it took us a full three weeks to completely furnish the place. But now, we can definitively say that our place is not just a house/apartment - it's a home! :) So please - take a look inside our minimalist home in Lisbon, Portugal!

    Meanwhile in America it’s “we have 2 kids but we need a 6 bed, 8 bath house with a 4 car garage, a mud room, a Butler’s pantry, separate offices and a bonus room” yet 40% of Americans don’t have enough to meet a $400 emergency.

      @nb Android yeah I know the feeling. I’m single and have a 2 bed 2 bath condo and it’s too much space for me. The second bedroom hasn’t been used in months. It just made more financial sense since in my area, a 1 bed 1 bath is now going for more than what I paid 6 years ago. Plus I’ve been lucky with some nice equity.

      Racist anti-black people hate to hear black folks congratulating other black folks. They like to see and hear black folks infighting with each other and insulting each other. They also don't like to see black folks happily married or dating other black folks and/or raising productive black children. Anti-black racists are probably the most pathetic people on the planet.

      I am south asian and we never take off our shoes in home. Infact I kinda feel its desrespectful to take off my shoes at my or anyone home n ecxpect others to do so. You have rugs/doormats at outside house where you can wipe them. Plus, we all have specific slippers to wear at home which we dont wear outside and for outside shoes which we dont wear inside. Everyone sit in homes with comfortable house slippers so whats the point in not wearing them? I personally feel a lot of strain in my feet bones if im not wearing comfortable slippers n walking or sitting bare feet. I cant, even on carpet.
