I would never DO it, but I GET it ; )
When we travel, sometimes at the end of our stay, I'll think to myself, "Now, I have all the NECESSITIES where I am. Sufficient clothing (1 suitcase) Furnished house, dishes, kitchen pots & pans, etc. What is there at home that I would MISS if it just wasn't there?"
Often, my mental list is pretty short!
The last time we traveled, DD really missed her play kitchen with all its accessories. But she barely thought of her other toys. That's a great de-cluttering hint! When we returned, I packed up 25 boxes of her stuff & made a deal with her. I'd pay her a dollar a box on the condition that she not look in the boxes & I tried to only pack stuff that I was pretty sure she wouldn't miss (which is to say, the kitchen stuff was kept for sure!).
So far, several months on, it seems to have worked pretty well
