Book excerpt: What began as two books, a memoir and a book about minimalism, Express With Less has morphed into one. Growing up as a teenager in the sixties, Nancy Hoffman had numerous experiences that were minimalistic. You will read about her High School trip to Bogota, Columbia, her summer job at a campground in North Carolina and other unique experiences. As time passed, Nancy strayed from her minimalistic nature and became a gatherer of things. Express With Less lets you follow Nancy’s journey with minimalism. She shares with you strategies and tips she has learned along the way.
