While this article is a little old the principles included in the interview are interesting  that's why I want you to meet this guy -- Andrew Hyde he  owns 15 things or as of the time of the article he did.

Although I counted more, assuming he owns the clothing he's wearing, the article speaks

of 15 items that include the following:

Oh, you want the list, right? Here's one that Hyde posted back in May:

1.    Arc'teryx Miura 30 backpack
2.    NAU shirt
3.    Mammut rain jacket
4.    Arc'teryx tshirt
5.    Patagonia running shorts
6.    Quick Dry towel
7.    NAU wool jacket

Thanks to MountainHigh Outfitters for bringing it to my attention.

The question is could you live with only 15 things to your name?

In this materialistic society could you pair down your belongings to 15 or 20 items?

What would you include?
