MY Compact & Portable mini “WFH” SETUP 👩🏽‍💻🙌🏽

Sometimes the coach just doesn’t cut it 😅

Two things I always look for and appreciate in a product or service are portability ☝🏽 and versatility ✌🏽

Portability is Queen because as a lone and modest renter, my stability only lasts as long as my landlord’s legal right to give me notice does. The last thing I need in a worst-case scenario is to wonder “how am I gonna move my giant credenza”, “how much is it gonna cost me for movers?” AND “How much is it gonna cost to repair/replace whatever they break?”. Because they will. Versatility co-reigns because I can easily move things if I get bored, if my needs change or I just want a change of atmosphere 😊

So you’ll notice a lot of, if not all, my furniture is compact, modular and easily disassembled— be that for transporting across the living room floor, or across the streets of town to a new beginning 😬

This philosophy extends to my Work From Home setup. As a repair technician, I can’t actually WFH but sometimes you just need to get stuff done sitting straight. With limited space, I chose to stick to this tried and true solution instead of trying to cram a desk into a corner I don’t actually have 🫣

I originally built this around my 2018 12.9 inch iPad Pro and have recently moved to a 2022 11 inch iPad Pro. I use Apple Pencil instead of a mouse though I could if I wanted to, connect a bluetooth mouse. Completing the setup is my Magic Keyboard (which I last charged, a year ago lol, still going strong) and a UGREEN tablet stands with movable head that I got from Amazon to keep my iPad at eye level 👁️

It’s a minimal, adaptable and functional ensemble that can travel with me and that gets the job done. And once done, I just tuck the keyboard and stand away into a cupboard and it’s back to couch-surfing the night away 🦦
