I love this type of video because I probably wouldn't have watched the original video myself. But with you, it's like watching it with a friend and it makes it much more entertaining vs watching alone
So happy you found Sibu. I remember watching videos of him moving his washing machine and helping a friend declutter. When I first stumbled upon Japanese extreme minimalism, like on Fumio Sasaki's Twitter posts and Samurai Matcha's TH-cam videos, I also notice that commonality of using camping gear. I think it is because with camping, you need to be good at packing what you really need and keeping it light, and extreme minimalists want to live with a lighter load of possessions, so they really hone in what is really essential. So, it is no wonder, the two overlap.
This video is so inspiring. When I cut back to two kitchen knives (modified cleaver, serated veg knife) I found it felt much easier to cook and I really can prep anything easily with those.
Another great video from you - just love watching you get so inspired. I also love watching Samurai Matcha , another Japanese minimalist. His 30-day challenge was brilliant (and my most watched video). He took all of his possessions out and could only bring in one item per day. He started out naked, cold, sleeping on the floor and eating cold food with his fingers. It really pinpoints what is absolutely necessary for your existence and what is just window dressing. Looking forward to seeing what else you can let go of.❤❤❤
Thank You Yes I’ve seen some of his videos they are great. I once did one living with only 33 possessions to teach me what I valued. It wasn’t as extreme as Samurai’s by the sound of it 😂 but I’d love to have a go at that 😂 ❤️
Oh Thank You Very Much 😊 I just need the inspiration 😉 I particularly like extreme minimalists that pay close attention to detail, tidiness and organisation. However, I think many are simply practical. This is why I also loved Youheum Son because her few possessions were also very well organised and beautiful to look at. Ceramics, Linen, Sustainable. They are key for me. In that we enjoy the quality of our fewer possessions. 😊
Very very true - Will it be a Lorry 🚛 Truck 🛻 Car 🚙 Several Boxes 📦 Suitcase 🧳 or a backpack 🎒 😊 We’ve moved twice over the last two years and it’s been nice to see it go from a full car load, to half a car load. To what I think next time will just be a suitcase and backpack each, if that 😊
After the military I lived for a couple of years in an apartment I rented as a "fancy tent". Everything in the place fit in my backpack, that's how it was brought in and that's ultimately how it left. I never counted my stuff, but I'd be surprised if it came to 100 items. I found it amusing to vacuum (neighbor's) and put wall to wall patterns in the carpet. My friends would come over and we'd booze it up pretty good and just lay around on the floor. "Sorry guys, I haven't bought any chairs yet."
Hey new sub here🎉...for some reason ive always been facinated with extreme minimalism too. Maybe because I grew up with hoarders? Idk. Ghandi was supposed to have like under 10 possessions when he passed! Im a minimalist, but I would like to declutter more. Thank you for the inspiration ❤
He might be counting his flooring, because when he first moved in, he put white, foam click-together squares down to make his space all white, to cover the wood floor.
Wow 😮 yeah, it must be non visible things we can’t see really, like you say. I’m thinking he counts every single individual wire and charger 🔌 for his gaming stuff and laptop etc. Because the fact he can pack everything in 13 minutes must mean that really if he grouped things into sets and made allowances, the amount of items he owned would be much less, probably more like 100.
Please make more videos like this one. I really enjoyed watching it with you, so to speak. 😊 I love seeing with how little a person can live. It's really inspiring and calming to me❤
Love that video!! One thing: please stop the orginal video when you wanna say something, I’d love to follow his words as well as your comments, but I am not that well in multitasking… (my comment refers e.g. to minute 6:00 etc.)
I normally always do stop the video, but I was aware that the video was running very long and I didn’t want to go much over the twenty minute mark. So I had to make up the time in some areas. This is why I linked the original video so that anyone who wanted to watch it in complete totality could go do so without me butting in 😂 😊
I have seen his videos yes 😊 brilliant. His quote he has on his computer sticker has been my mums mantra her whole life. She goes out every morning and collects rubbish off the beach. 🏝️ 🌊 😊”Be the change you wish to see in the world” Ghandi.
Wow! I liked the way he could get everything down in pockets! I often feel stopped in bags and so on. I don´t really want to have them. Like handbags. I must sort that out. I have to declutter my purse. He is an inspiration! For sure!
Yes I know, it’s mad to think if he didn’t live in an earthquake prone country he probably wouldn’t need a lot of those things. I suppose it’s a reminder to us all that environment affects what possessions we need. My shoes are affected by the cold climate of the uk. As is a portion of my clothing. Along with the amount of blankets we keep in our home. 😊
The video that inspired me with minimalism was a clip i saw from a japanese tv show of sasaki fumio. that video for sure triggered me into being inspired and started decluttering the things i owned.
I’ve just started watching your video and am looking forward to more inspiration. I’m feeling so defeated in my home and need to be much more aggressive with my decluttering. My problem is my husband and son but that’s for another day.😖😂 I’ve just subscribed to your channel as well.🥰
Oh That’s Lovely and Welcome. You will get there. I also think that minimalism has a habit of rubbing off on people even when we say nothing. People see what a good impact it has on our life and sometimes want to emulate. For instance my mum is by no means a natural minimalist. But since I started decluttering I have noticed her home too has grown slightly less cluttered than previously. 😂 People realise that we appear less stressed and more organised and put 2 and 2 together 😊
I wonder if he counts each thing individually? I know some people when they count their items count pairs of things as 1 item. I’ve been reading the 100 Thing Challenge and the author counted his entire bookshelf as 1 thing, so everyone seems to count differently.
Yes I agree, I also did a video about this. How some people consider sets as one thing. That is, say a set of cutlery. Or a tracksuit is a top and bottom but they are a suit typically worn together. Also chargers 🔌 for things are generally considered part of the same item. But some people count individually 😊
Wow that was so interesting! 😯 I like when you give your opinion about videos! I didn't know about this guy but it's so inspiring (maybe because we are moving now 😂) but it's definitely a good model! Thanks for the outtakes too, I'm sorry for you and the noise but really love it it was so funny!! 😂😂🙌🏻♥️
😂 Thank You Nadège ❤️ it’s ok I see the funny side of it afterwards too and it at least gives other people entertainment. I couldn’t even include all the outtakes because there were so many. I would start to talk thinking they had stopped and it would continue again 😂 🤦♀️ 🤯
My partner and I own just below 300 things but because we have cables all over the show and a teeny cottage, it looks ever so much more lived in than this guys place! He's super inspirational! (I bet half the stuff he owns are all those spices! :P) Ah life is fun!
The part in the kitchen is so me. Its interesting that he has so many supplements and protein, yet nothing else. I would be so interested in what he eats in a day based on that.
I edited some parts out of the video but he explained more on the full Tokyo lens version. That he eats out once a day then has curry usually once per day, which is what he cooks in his apartment as he prefers his own curry 🍛 😊
Yes a few people have mentioned they’d like me to do a video about ‘Goodbye Things’. Which I will in the future. It’s funny because lately there have been so many comments on my channel about not decluttering too much because obviously people view from their own perspective. Which may in these terms be one of thinking I have Decluttered enough. However that is their own comfort level. When people assume things it is not objective truth. It assumes also that other people don’t know their own minds or have their own intuition. Whilst it may come from a place of care and concern it could be seen as being a little presumptuous and so insulting. As afterall what if it is someone’s joy, free will and biggest dream to pursue owning less for a life of freedom. Such as, travel? Or simply less possessions to take care of. So many extreme minimalist channels arrive on TH-cam ‘ready made’. We don’t see the thought process to get down to the final items and that is what I hope to show on my channel. After all most extreme minimalists don’t simply arrive at extreme minimalism do they? They have usually been on a Declutter journey. I will combine all these discussions, thoughts and insights in future videos 😊
@@SagelifeMinimalism Fumio does refer to something he calls "get rid of everything disease" but I don;t think people are trying to be insulting, it is that when we see something we interpret it from our own reference, and their reference is that if they got rid of that much stuff, they would have a lot of regrets. Fumio also says that at a certain point it is important to ask "why am I getting rid of this?" in the same way at the beginning we need to ask "why am I keeping this?" I have an attachment to having the title "minimalist" so I have to be careful about my decisions.
@ros8986 Yes that’s exactly what I’m referring to, that people can only interpret from their perspective 😊 This is also despite me often explaining in videos that currently I’m doing the decluttering for the added incentive of traveling. Albeit, I have said it would then probably be difficult going back to more once I’d experienced the benefits of less. Living in this particular home I live in now has been tricky too. It’s made both my partner and I want much less because everything is visible. We have no built in storage cupboards anywhere in the home. We are forced to constantly look at everything we have 😂 it’s like a constant Marie kondo experiment 😊
I own about 600 things. Yes, i counted. I do not count soap, toothpaste, deodorant, kitty litter or food of any kind. They are temporary and disposable so they dont count as when gey are used up they are gone. I do include pens, forks, spoons, each piece of linens and each piece of clothing and furniture. I have included kitty toys and the pet stroller and bug out bag full of supplies for when we have to evacuate for hurricanes every year. Idont see 200 things in this young mans apartment either.
Sibu was one of the minimalists showcased in Fumio Sasaki's book 'goodbye, things'. I was following on twitter but not TH-cam until there was a recently translated video in English.
I know 😊 my partner and I sometimes discuss what things we’d have or wouldn’t have if we didn’t share. I’d have no bed frame. He says he’d have no shelves or plants anywhere 😂 🙄
Not as extreme as Craig! Craig doesn’t have an address per say. Then after a while, he deletes his channel and pops up a year later with a new one. He’s got about ten things and moves around. Makes this guy look like a hoarder!! Come back Craig 😮please comment if you know who I’m talking about!
I absolutely do know of Craig, however, I don’t think it’s comparable. As Sibu, has to have things because he lives in his own apartment. Not a shared home with things provided for him to use. So bedding and cooking utensils aren’t provided for him, as they are for Craig. Albeit, I know Craig went without bedding at one point. But Japan can be much colder than Florida in winter. I think many people could live with much lower numbers of things if they lived in hotels, air bnbs etc. I’m personally interested to see how people achieve it when these items aren’t provided for them 😊.
Please dont eat out of pans with the non-stick coating -- that can get you really sick. Liked your video -- first time watching your content and will watch more :)
@@SagelifeMinimalism btw how do You spend the money? I mean for me it's the main question in minimalism, you don't buy stuff you have spare funds...what to do with them?
@@miaulnir At the moment we’re saving for travel funds but also to get our own little cabin in the woods away from the hustle and bustle. The rising noise pollution living even in a small town is becoming slowly unbearable 😫 😊 🏡 🏔️
I very much enjoy your videos, but I feel you wave your hands around far too much when you speak.The continuous hand gestures, waving and pointing is unnecessary. I feel this is a form of ‘visual clutter’ that can also be minimised and refined. There is nothing more calming than watching someone speak with stillness, this in turn allows us embrace the message with minimal visual distraction. You’ll note that Sibu communicates this way. His body language is minimalist whilst he speaks, as with everything else he practices 🙏 ❤
Well Thank You for that feedback however I also have several things to point out- pun not intended 😊 Sibu is standing and many times when I gesture more I am sitting . Also on a video platform it has been proven that generally people stay tuned in more to what someone is saying when they emphasise with their hands. Even lecturers often do this. Furthermore, it is part of my body language and is idiosyncratic to me. So whilst I can be mindful about how much I am doing it, for all these reasons I am not going to stop completely. I think it may also be a cultural thing 🙏 ❤️
Why on earth would you bother to make such a personal derogatory comment like this? Here’s my take: minimalists don’t waste their time and energy and intelligence on noticing and commenting on a TH-camrs mannerisms. So, if you practice minimalism, shut up.
Last year i followed a guy called Craiq on YT, he lives in Florida and has less than 20 items, he is very inspirational and lived that way for many years. Sadly he decluttered always his YT channels too after a few months so at the moment he is not to follow on YT.
Yes I am aware of Craig 😊 Very Minimalist. I sometimes wished he would have shown us more of his living environment though? Like the kitchen? As I know his more recent videos before he decluttered his channel were always just in one room? That seemed to be a bedroom or living room? I did very much appreciate his no nonsense and BS approach though. Very real, Honest and not pretentious one bit 🙌
@@SagelifeMinimalism Yes, no nonsense indeed :) He made long walkings and reflects on everything, i loved his channels for the time being. He has a room for free because he cleaned the other room. The kitchen and shower were shared, maybe that was the reason he didn’t filmed it?

His body language is minimalist whilst he speaks, as with everything else he practices 🙏 ❤
Well Thank You for that feedback however I also have several things to point out- pun not intended 😊 Sibu is standing and many times when I gesture more I am sitting . Also on a video platform it has been proven that generally people stay tuned in more to what someone is saying when they emphasise with their hands. Even lecturers often do this. Furthermore, it is part of my body language and is idiosyncratic to me. So whilst I can be mindful about how much I am doing it, for all these reasons I am not going to stop completely. I think it may also be a cultural thing 🙏 ❤️
@@SagelifeMinimalism You make some very good points, thanks for the reply 🙏
Why on earth would you bother to make such a personal derogatory comment like this? Here’s my take: minimalists don’t waste their time and energy and intelligence on noticing and commenting on a TH-camrs mannerisms. So, if you practice minimalism, shut up.
Last year i followed a guy called Craiq on YT, he lives in Florida and has less than 20 items, he is very inspirational and lived that way for many years. Sadly he decluttered always his YT channels too after a few months so at the moment he is not to follow on YT.
Yes I am aware of Craig 😊 Very Minimalist. I sometimes wished he would have shown us more of his living environment though? Like the kitchen? As I know his more recent videos before he decluttered his channel were always just in one room? That seemed to be a bedroom or living room? I did very much appreciate his no nonsense and BS approach though. Very real, Honest and not pretentious one bit 🙌
@@SagelifeMinimalism Yes, no nonsense indeed :) He made long walkings and reflects on everything, i loved his channels for the time being. He has a room for free because he cleaned the other room. The kitchen and shower were shared, maybe that was the reason he didn’t filmed it?
Oh I see, that makes sense 😊
Love minimalist_sibu.
Love for Sibu 🖤
