I really relate to this! This feels a bit like when we were selling our house quick in London and then spent five months living in a mobile home. I really loved not having so much stuff. Weirdly, when our stuff came back to us, it was the art that I was the most happy to be reunited with! (We got rid of a lot though!)

That's so interesting that everyone who moves countries has a similar story. I don't even miss the stuff we got rid of. There's stuff I'm storing with my family but we have no room for it!

Similar experience with getting rid of our stuff before our move. I braved the lawless wasteland that is Facebook Marketplace to sell some stuff.

Had the same idea about a garage sale and the effort was far greater than the outcome. Goodwill ended up with most of it.

It was definitely hit or miss with Marketplace but we were able to make a little bit of money.

Would love to chat with you about your experience and best advice for adjusting!
