I need an empty house with only a few nice items.

oh! I need much more. wooden shelves for books (many shelves), shelves for ceramics and various stuff... big boxes or shelves for papers, photos, and art (I dream of a special cabinet for storing large-format papers - newspaper editorial offices used to store their materials in such cabinets... but this is a unique thing, now you can’t buy this in a regular store); big windows for a lot of light, lamps, electricity, owen to cook, a place for cat ofc, and more and more and more; the more I think - the more I need. haha. you see.... my case is quite a contrary to minimalistic yours.

It is rather cold here; temperature fluctuations at my city happen very often, sometimes 2 times a day (!). The snow falls and melts, falls and melts, then falls again - that is why the roads in Russia are very bad: no wet road surface can withstand such abuse for a long time.

And note - the cold is not so hard to bear under dry conditions; but when combined with high humidity (my case), and a constantly blowing wind (again, my case) - even not very low temperatures, like -5C - are perceived very painfully. I try not to go outside when I can :)

About Kalah: to put it simply, the game is about moving pebbles according to some rules / limitation. Each player do this in their turn, and the one who by the end of the game has collected the most pebbles - become a winner. The game is extremely simple, but despite this, exciting.
