- How to reduce the number of things around you
- It is not things that make people happy.
You hear a lot about minimalist principles where reducing things has gone from a means to an end.
Of course, I feel rather uncomfortable, if not 100% wrong.
This is because objects always intervene in all activities.
It is said that "things are more important than things.The premise of a thing is a thing.
If you want to travel, you need clothes, bags, shoes, and purses.
If you want to enjoy the outdoors and spend time with nature, you need the right tools.
Rather than increasing or decreasing the number of things, we should face things in our daily life and
It will be better for me, and what I think it will be better for me.
Encountering an item that will solve your problems and challenges will enhance your quality of life.
So, in this time I have been facing things in my own way,We have carefully selected only the supreme items that have dramatically enhanced our QOL.

Rather than detailed product specifications.What has changed in your life?I will summarize from the perspective thatSo, I would be happy to discover even one of them.
The supreme item that has dramatically improved the quality of life|Home Appliances & Gadgets
TWINBIRD / Fully Automatic Coffee Maker
- between work and tasks.How restful of a break."promoted bishop (shogi)
- Gives you more energy to work with.
- The joy of drinking freshly ground from your favorite beans at home every time
- It would be nice to be at home, not in a cafe (and save money).
My wife and I use it twice a day.
TWINBIRD Fully Automatic Coffee Maker
When I first purchased it, I thought it was quite expensive,The item has such a high impact on our lives that it feels cheap in retrospect.
Faithful reproduction of hand drip, including the "steaming" processAnd,A mill by itself can use a considerable amount ofand definitely the best choice for a fully automatic home coffee maker.




Marshall / MIDDLETON
- To enjoy music as an expansive and resonant space of sound
- Battery-powered, no power cord, and a sophisticated design that looks great as room decor.
- The weight is just barely portable, so it's fun to take outdoors (choose your environment).
Wireless speakers that changed music from "listening" to "experiencing
Marshall MIDDLETON
Size, Price and Qualityand
A popular model with very high deviation and overwhelming reputation.
The bass sound, which is one of Marshall's strengths, is especially great, and the separate woofers allow the treble to come through nicely.
It is best enjoyed for a long time without getting tired of listening to it, although it is powerful.




Apple / MacBook
- It has greatly expanded my life options, including blogging and Youtube.
- Scalability and customizability have more than doubled work efficiency, no joke.
MacBooks and other Apple products have contributed on a level that has changed not just our lives, but our lives.
Without MacBook, I would not have continued blogging and sending out messages as I do now.
Also, outside of the creative area, the efficiency of everyday work has improved dramatically.
Sometimes I see people working on company PCs with mediocre specs, and now I realize, "Oh, I'm so glad I got a Mac. (I am not saying that Windows is bad or anything like that.)
Now using M2 MacBook Air 13
It is highly portable and has good battery life, yet has high specs that allow for crisp editing of 4K video.
Most people don't need the Pro anymore, or rather, the Air is "better suited" for portability.
I will continue to be a semi-permanent customer.
FLEXISPOT / Desk with automatic lift
- Learning the art of "changing posture" has increased my work time capacity.
- It can be adjusted to any height you want, so it's a great tool for shooting Youtube.
- Preventing the negative effects of sitting on the body
This is another must-have item that is now indispensable.
FLEXISPOT electric elevating desk
From "I'm tired, let's take a break" to "I'm getting tired, let's change my posture."Due to changes in theThe capacity for work time has increased substantially.
Prolonged sitting isIt has been pointed out that it reduces blood flow and muscle metabolism, and poses a risk of myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular disease, obesity, diabetes, cancer, dementia, and other health hazards.
And the average sitting time of Japanese people is 7 hours a day, one of the highest in the world.
They also have a negative impact on mental health and are an effective preventive measure for both mental and physical health.
It honestly may not suit you, but the longer you work at a desk, the more I recommend it!






DELL / 4K IPS Display Monitor
- Greatly improves efficiency of tasks such as video editing
- Since I don't have a TV, I enjoy watching movies, cartoons, and other videos.
- The line of sight is closer to the horizontal than with a notebook PC, reducing stiffness in the shoulders and eye fatigue.
For a long time, we had been using a single PC to complete our work, but as the volume of work increased, we introduced a display to improve efficiency.
Bottom line, I can't go back...
If you think about it calmly, since so many desk workers are installing displays, it is obvious that they should.
I had some weird assumptions and obsessions... lol.
We chose Dell's most powerful monitor, a popular 4K, IPS LCD model, because we wanted to go all the way.
With its narrow bezel, wide viewing angle IPS LCD, and connection terminals so extensive that a dock is unnecessary, a MacBook Air can be connected with a single USB-C.


Supreme items that have dramatically improved the quality of life
ARC'TERYX / Jacket (hardshell and softshell)
- Don't get lost in the choice of clothing
- The frequency of clothing purchases has decreased dramatically (and the total amount spent has also decreased).
- Adaptable to the season and environment by dressing up or down
- Long-wearing and the more you use it, the more you will love it.
One of the brands I am partial to,ARC'TERYX
I don't have to tell you how great they look and design.
Its practicality and the degree to which it plays an active role in our daily lives will only come into full play when we use it.
In my mind, the ARC'TERYX ecosystem is gradually being completed, following the Apple economic zone.
The Beta Jacket is one of the most popular due to its high portability and versatility.
GORE-TEX is used and can be worn as rainwear.


ARC'TERYX has a strong impression of hard shells, but its soft shells, which emphasize comfort and wearability, can also be used casually like a parka and are very frequently used!
We recommend Gamma SL or Atom Hoodie for starters!






ARC'TERYX / Mantis 2
- No more forgetting valuables or must-have items.
- Easier to refill baggage when bag is old enough to change.
- Comfortable for small shopping and excursions when traveling or on business
Next, ARC'TERYX's masterpiece pouch, Mantis 2
There are plenty of other similar pouches out there,This size, ease of use, and wearability have made it overwhelmingly popular.
It is easy to carry even in a bag-in-a-bag, yet has enough storage space to just barely fit a 500ml PET bottle.



If you put your wallet, key case, and other essentials in the pouch, you can quickly refill it if your bag changes without forgetting anything!


ABLE CARRY / Daily Plus
- Surprisingly comfortable for carrying heavy loads such as PCs, tablets, camera equipment, etc.
- Regardless of the amount of luggage inside, you can always take it out because of its beautiful silhouette.
- Versatility to handle everything from daily use to travel and business trips
Zero Gravity BackpackABLE CARRY, which has become a worldwide phenomenon called
The brand's flagship model is Daily Plus
This is a supreme minimalist backpack that I love and rely on so much that most of my uses are completed with this one.
All in all, a different grade from the 20+ backpacks I have used.
Many outdoor brand backpacks are relatively high quality in terms of strength and comfort, but the quality far surpasses them.
It feels like we are finally getting there.


HOLICC / PackBag+
- Compression ratio of 50% or higher, so it changes from one bag to another for travel and business trips.
- Packing before going out is more enjoyable
- Easy for anyone to compress and sturdy enough to use with gusto
- No clutter of luggage on the go (2-room structure)
Compression bags created by a group of professional travelers
HOLICC PackBag+
The more the bag itself that you take with you changes, the more compact your luggage will be.
Thanks in part to this, the Daily Plus backpack can handle up to 3 days and 2 nights.
The two-room structure allows for separation from worn items, and there is also plenty of storage for small items to keep your belongings organized at all times!
Authentic outdoor materials are used, so there is no need to worry about traveling.




Supreme items that have dramatically improved the quality of life
snow peak / snow peak
- High strength and no fear of cracking even if dropped
- High heat and cold retention performance and can be used for everything from alcoholic beverages
- Can be used every day at home as well as camping.
For those who are interested in camping and outdoor activities, we recommend the following items as the first items to purchase
snow peak
Don't underestimate it as just a cup!
Titanium's antibacterial performance, heat and cold retention performance, and strength, combined with its minimalistic appearance, somehow makes everything from coffee to beer and highballs and other alcoholic beverages taste a little better than usual when you drink with it.It has such charm.
There are many more reasonably priced titanium mugs, but I still think this is the most excellent mug overall in terms of texture, construction, and design.
