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. Between 2005 and 2007 I completed an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford. I worked for five years for the Canadian federal government, including completing the Accelerated Economist Training Program, and then completed a PhD in Political Science at the University of Toronto in 2023.

  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.
