Stop following the IKEA model of life

Today I visited IKEA with my girlfriend to look for a towel rail, storage box for our cupboard and toothbrush holder. That’s it. That’s all we needed. We meandered around the store for at least 1 hour and finally got to the checkout with NOTHING on the list of things we went for. Instead we […]
