      You could take up knitting. I take a ball of yarn to knit a pair of socks in my downtime (after I’ve journaled and blogged). Weighs 100g. You might find yourself chatting to people too.

      Tincatinker reacted to Kathar1na's post in the thread Pork in Spain with Love - Red heart Love - Red heart.
