Kia ora! I've been on fedi since April, but here's a new #introduction for my new instance. I'm a fan of #VoluntarySimplicity / #SimpleLiving. Expect photos of vegetables I grow, 2 black rescue cats & views of Otago Harbour. I occasionally post in #Gàidhlig (Scottish Gaelic) which I'm learning. I'm also learning Korean but I'm not good enough to post in that yet! I also know a little Te Reo Māori, Deutsch & Français. I get around by bike & public transport.

Kia ora, greetings to all the newcomers! I’d be happy to connect with other people committed to #VoluntarySimplicity. I love living this way and it gives me a little more hope in these times of #ClimateCrisis 💚 I’ve found @dennyhenke and @aarnegranlund here, and @Oblomovna is a friend IRL. Anyone else out there?

Alexander, who is in Melbourne, has done lots of great work on #VoluntarySimplicity and #degrowth, both theoretical and practical. A lot of his stuff is available online through the Simplicity Institute. http://simplicityinstitute.org/

Anyone here interested in #VoluntarySimplicity as part of #degrowth? I am - the clue’s in my handle 😆 I’m currently reading Degrowth in the Suburbs: A Radical Urban Imaginary by Samuel Alexander & Brendan Gleeson. Very interesting. I like the way they concentrate on suburbs - often dismissed by urbanists. As they say, suburbs are huge resource consumers, but they aren’t disappearing any time soon and their potential for energy descent is huge.
