Three years ago, I was living in a tiny, 450-square-foot apartment with my partner and we were drowning in our possessions. With no closets and too much stuff, the apartment was always a mess. A friend passed along Kondo's book,"," and while we first started following it ironically, it soon became very serious.

If a pair of pants that I am bringing"sparks joy" but doesn't serve any particular purpose, it's a reminder to think twice about packing it.Marie Kondo recommends organizing by category and I use the bottom cubby for camera lenses, the middle for my glasses case and a small notebook, and the top cubbie for my technology Dopp kit, the Peak Design Field Pouch, and my Fuji X-T3 digital camera.
