Never really imagined having anything to put in HD but here goes

Moved into my new apartment last week, as with most places in Germany it was totally unfurnished, even down to not having a kitchen or anything but a bare bulb in each room... still, all brand new decoration and flooring so had a decent starting point.

Crap camera phone pics anyway:

View out from lounge area onto balcony, can just see the sofabed bottom right:


Corner kitchen, fridge etc still to come:


Table and chairs, positioned so I can use the table for food prep too:


Bathroom from hallway, bath is off to the right:


And the nice double bed (first one I've had) - yes, I cocked up and bought a duvet that was too small Will fit the sofa bed though when I have visitors



And my favourite new gadget, the Hagenuk Stick telephone:




Plenty still to do (when I have the time and can get to the möbel shops again

Very nice mate! How much fella if you don't mind me asking? (I presume you're renting?)

I'm trying to find a place in Abu Dhabi at the minute and it's costing me a fucking fortune - about 10/11k per annum for a decent place and expats cant buy!!

It was 1200 euros deposit, then it's 480 a month including heating and water, caretaker etc.

Not much to buy in Germany either, it's 90% renting.

Seen a white leather sofa I want, and a decent HD flatscreen too, planning to get a big one then use it as my PC monitor too.

Lots to do, its actually exciting to have a project that isn't blue and slow.

Yeah, exactly Joe. I won't spend long there, just sleep during the week and then weekends if I'm not off doing something.

Looks ace

I was kinda expecting it to be something smaller with stuff that folded up into everything else efficiently, like a camper van, but without wheels
