1. We did it because it was the best option for us at the time. Logistically it made the most sense.
1. It was really hard. I had no concept about how much we had, or how much fit into a suitcase.
2. No one wanted my stuff. Straight up, no one wanted it, needed it or would take it.
3. Would I do it again? Under those circumstances, absolutely. Just because? Probably not.
4. Do I think others should do it? Maybe. What I think people should really take away from it are these two things: 1. you're going to have to trash things. 2. You're going to get familiar with what and how much you really have. And it will surprise you.
