REVIEW: Renovating & Moving 2008 Part II

The move was fast, smooth and uncomplicated. This time the moving company made sure to deliver their high quality boxes. 80 boxes, to be exact, plus some spare ones. Boxes, boxes, boxes. Everywhere...










A few hours later. The move is done and we're there.

It took a few weeks to get organized, but let's take a little appartment tour nonetheless:




















 


REVIEW: Renovating & Moving 2008, Part I

In 2008 we decided to move again as we were quite unhappy with the area and neighboorhood.
We rented a nice appartment close to the city center and some main attractions, surrounded by bars and restaurant and a large shopping mall nearby. 300€ more rent each month for a great location and a not so great appartment ( which we could not know at this point, unfortunately).

This time we did not have to renovate anything, all the work was done before we moved in. The only change we made was to coat the freshly painted white walls with some color. However, that happened after we moved in as the renovations lasted longer than expected and finished just in time, one day prior to our move.
