The Digital Nomad's Library
Curation as a survival skill: what we keep when we move from place to place.

I moved eleven times in seven years. Each move required me to look at my books the way an editor looks at a manuscript: what earns the space?
What survived surprised me. Not the impressive titles. Not the ones I meant to reread. The survivors were the books that had, at some point, quietly changed how I thought.
A personal library is autobiography written in other people's words.
