Musician Shipsea: Quitting alcohol and smoking changed my daily pleasures
In an interview, musician Shipsea reveals that after giving up alcohol and smoking, he now truly appreciates good coffee and chooses to wear items that can be passed down to future generations.
Musician Shipsea, known to the wider public for his creative work, shares that since he stopped drinking alcohol and smoking, he has learned to enjoy small things he previously overlooked. This is especially true for coffee – he now "incredibly appreciates good coffee."
In a conversation with the magazine "Pastaiga", the musician emphasizes his life philosophy based on quality over quantity. "Better one thing for a long time than a full closet of useless knick-knacks," he says. Shipsea admits he tries to choose items that can be passed on to future generations – similar to how it was done in the old days.
He finds special value in items with emotional meaning. For example, he appreciates a heartfelt ring from his grandmother's dowry chest or his father's tie from his youth. Currently, he wears a checked flannel shirt that belonged to his grandfather Juris.
Shipsea also reveals that he extremely enjoys drinking from beautiful cups. His current favorite is a green "Acme" cup, which he noticed at the "Kalves" café and, after friends noticed, received as a Christmas gift.
The full interview can be read in the July issue of "Pastaiga" magazine, available on store shelves from June 19.
