Yesterday was my last day of the one week challenge.

I can say that I’m glad that I’m going to eat some more elaborate food again but I’m more glad that I can finally wash my clothes because my laundry basket was getting very full.

Despite this I can tell that it was a very meaningful experience for me because now I’m more conscious of how much energy I’m actually consuming and what can I do to try to reduce it.

As I mentioned last time this wasn’t the first time that I tried to consume less energy because me and my flatmate got scared by the inflating bills last year and today still. The difference is that last time it was more about money but this time, also thanks to research we have done in group, it was more about recognizing my privileges and how lucky I am.

So in conclusion I can say it was hard but fun and I’m not a great cooker anyway so it wasn’t that much of a sacrifice using the cookstove less :)
