I used to wear the same running shoes to gym and to hangout, my feet hurt and the shoes looked beat up fast. I split my rotation into 3 running, gym, and casual and my shoes last longer and my feet don't hurt. These are 15 pairs I actually tried for small apartment living, no need for 20 pairs, just these 3 categories.

I hate going to car wash every week, it's expensive. These are things I keep in my trunk that keep my car clean in 15 minutes. No expensive tools, just soap, towels, and small stuff that actually works for daily dust and oily dashboard.

If you are a guy with oily skin that gets shiny by noon and breakouts on forehead, nose, and jaw after shave this is for you. I have oily acne prone skin too

I live in a small space, so I don't buy big furniture. I buy small ones that make room feel clean and not crowded. These are the small shelves, racks, vases and organizers I use to keep things neat but still pretty. Nothing big, all fits in one corner.

I don't buy big supplement bottles. I just keep small jars of dried roots, leaves and flowers in my kitchen. I use them for warm tea, not to replace medicine. Just my daily habit when I don't want coffee

I get bored easily when I'm waiting, traveling, or no internet. I don't like scrolling. I like small toys that I can hold, spin, solve. These are not normal toys. Some are weird, some are satisfying. I keep them on my desk.

I hate big bags. I carry small ones. This is what I use when I travel, ride, or just go out. No big backpack, just small pouch, sling, and crossbody that fits phone, wallet, charger. I tried many that broke in 2 months. These are the ones that stayed

I like stuff that is spooky but still looks good in my house, not like a party store exploded. This is what I use for kitchen, bedroom, bathroom and front porch. Reusable every year.

I'm a guy. I don't do 10-step skincare. I tried a lot of products that smell like flowers and made my skin worse. This is just what I use now. Wash, shave, moisturize. No sting, no hype, no pink packaging. If you sweat a lot, ride motorbike, and have oily skin this list is for you dude.

I've gotten a lot of gifts I pretended to like (sorry Annisa). This is not that list. This is the stuff guys talk about with their friends, keep in their garage, their EDC pouch, their desk drawer. Not romantic, but we use it every week and we remember who gave it to us. If your guy likes fixing things, camping, coffee, or just having good tools this will make him happy.

I live in a small house and I can't install big panels on the roof. This is just what I use to run some lights and charge my phone with the sun. Some of it is slow, some of it only works when it's really sunny. But my electricity bill is lower and I have light when the power goes out. No electrician needed. Just put it in the sun.

I checked my trash for a month. It was mostly plastic from the kitchen and bathroom. I'm not zero-waste, I still create waste.
