Shedding possessions

With my departure from Oxford coming up in about one hundred days, I am getting nervous about how much stuff I have picked up while here. Since it seems that shipping things back to Vancouver would be excessively expensive, I am planning to sell as much as possible before leaving.

Here is a list of what will be for sale. If you are interested in anything, let me know.

In the spring of 2005, I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in International Relations and a general focus in the area of environmental politics. In the fall of 2005, I began reading for an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford. Outside school, I am very interested in photography, writing, and the outdoors. I am writing this blog to keep in touch with friends and family around the world, provide a more personal view of graduate student life in Oxford, and pass on some lessons I've learned here.

  1. Um. Wouldn’t it make more sense to do this when:

    (a) you don’t still need this stuff for three and a half months
    (b) you shouldn’t be focusing intensely on thesis work?

  2. R.K.

    Very true.

    Antonia,

    That, I will certainly need right until the bitter end. After that, it is certainly something I mean to sell. Shipping it would cost as much as buying a new one in Canada. (And I have two more in Canada)

  3. Oxfam is always an option, for getting rid of things like books and teapots.
