Item 1 of 1

My setup is very minimalist. I mainly just have a laptop, mouse, table and computer chair. I used to go to coworking spaces a lot before the pandemic and that's probably why I have very few items. I want all my work stuff to be very easy to pack. The "environmental design" of our WFH setup is focused on encouraging relaxation, taking short breaks, and achieving a sense of "balance" in our lives.

What you're seeing

Thinkpad X270 Core i5 8GB ram

Main work machine. Runs on Ubuntu 20.04.

Sunrise, Sunset and Moon Paintings

These are really cheap paintings that I got from Lazada. I installed these so my background will look prettier during our classes and meetings.

Klean Kanteen Water Bottle 12 oz

To encourage myself to drink lots of water and also to avoid buying bottled water whenever I go out. Just trying to be a bit eco-friendly. I also chose an insulated water bottle so I can also use it to store coffee and keep it hot for a longer period of time.

Zen Fountains

I love the relaxing sound of water. It just acts as an ambient sound while working.

Google Home Mini

Matt and I use this as our assistant for reminders and schedules so we don't have to remember them. I like to offload things from my brain that are important to remember but don't need to be there. So I guess it also kinda acts like a "brain extender".

Veco Dotted Notebook, Pen and Highlighter

I like taking notes for almost everything and highlighting important stuff.

In-ear earphones

Matt and I work in the same small area of our condo. I use earphones so I don't disturb him during my calls, when I watch videos or take online classes. This has been with me for 3 years.

Houseplants

To help improve indoor air quality.
