A tiny story about ramen, Madrid and timing in real life
I started this because my Monday morning felt a little stuck, and housing seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.

That line sounds cheesy, but it got me through the part where design stopped feeling new.
I tried this in Mumbai with a friend and we both noticed the same thing: the social part mattered more than the perfect plan.
I know this is a tiny sample size, but after 3 attempts the pattern is pretty clear. When I keep the setup simple, I actually follow through.
