It's extra hard when you don't have enough kitchen space.

I'll be doing a downgrade in the next few months as well, and as much is I'm looking forward to a new area, I'm going to miss having so much space.

I guess sacrifices need to be made.

Hopefully you find a nice place that has a good compromise - maybe fewer rooms but larger ones/inbuilt storage and a decent kitchen. I find myself being able to actually store stuff a lot more efficiently now whereas I kind of sprawled a lot at my old place and kept stuff I probably didn't need at all.

You might find you're spending more time out of home and don't need as much stuff for home activities either ๐Ÿ™‚

There's at least 6 boxes of stuff I never unpacked despite having 4 bedrooms to myself lol

I absolutely want to be spending more time out of home. Can't wait!
