filesystem monitor, for unprivileged user

how can i, ordinary, not a privileged user, monitor my part of filesystem ($HOME dir), to see (at least in log) when and which files was created/deleted/moved ?
(I heard something abound "sandbox", but i don`t need to restrict applications, i just want to log its actions)

p.s. my system is linux (gentoo)

p.p.s. maybe i must have been start this thread in this forum?
