Packing time!
So it begins!
We first bought 30 boxes (of small and medium size) and started packing the apartment. We started with the living room – packing bookcases and dvds etc, and then disassembled the dining table and the couch, to make room on the floor for boxes. The picture was taken in our old living room, almost a week before we moved out, so the pile of boxes only got bigger. Thankfully Easter landed in the ending of March, so we had a 5 day weekend to pack stuff down. Though we had to go back and get 30 more boxes in the middle of Easter, since we ran out faster than anticipated. We then packed the bedroom, and finished with packing the kitchen. Then we basically lived with two plates, two sets of utensils etc. for a few days, until it was time to move.
During the packing process, we threw away so much shit we haven’t used in forever, which always gives me a great feeling of accomplishment. But damn it’s tough to pack everything you own into boxes – you get physically tired from standing up all day and carrying heavy boxes, and mentally tired from deciding what to keep, and what to throw out – we were basically ending a chapter of our lives and that i exhausting, apparently 🙂 .
We are so looking forward to finally moving, and getting settled in.
But that’s it for now. See you next time.
