@quixoticgeek 🧵 material you could need for repairing, it was the norm of living dozens of years ago!
In our farmhouse museum, we show people how everything was repaired and material collected to have parts for repairing. Our conservators do the same: we have cupboards full of old screws from the rubbish – because the sizes for historical objects are no longer manufactured. People who collect/donate such materials help us to maintain our exhibition pieces.
And people with Kondo-houses can't

@quixoticgeek 🧵 I like your thread very much!
I'm in the situation of preparing to move to something smaller after collecting important stuff for more than 30 yrs, and I often curse: "Why didn't I listen to Kondo!" But regarding old things I remember that things tell stories, they are physical memories. And the collected stones from a holiday are much more precious than everything money can buy. But well, I have to sort stuff out and it's so difficult to decide!
What you tell about

This perfect April-weather in September is nice for looking at windows with curtains.

@lionelb My connections to nature started in my early childhood in the 1960s but I didn't have the time with university and then the job for researching more. I got back (including my podcast) when I was fre enough to change the topics of my job.

Volunteering in a nature park in France, I see a lot of very young school children who educate their parents! We use modern methods like ID-apps when going into nature with them. They see other species than we saw in our childhood but they are so aware
