Move it! especially to a waaaayyyy nicer Apartment located almost in Downtown Dortmund! I don’t like to move it move it, just one time move it is enough 😉 I thought I have a minimalist style until I had to packed, only then I realized omg Marlyn what have you done?! I am dead beyond measure when I had to carry my stuff from 3rd floor to 3rd floor and this was already with a very very very big help from my squad! Stefan and Julius were the two who carried my Kallax and my Sofabed. Me, Julia and Claudia carried other small stuff like TV, boxes, table, chairs etc and we already as sweaty as a pig, can’t imagine what the guys went through!
As the phrase “Rome wasn’t build in one day” so does “Moving wasn’t finish in one day”. Before my moving day, me, Claudia and Julia went to apartment to do some paintings. Claudia were so prepared with painting equipment and ladder, we even went to Hornbach to buy additional stuff. We painted my Schlafzimmer for like 3 hours, I’m sure it’s already white enough but Claudia said “Hmmm on top is not, let me do it” and trust me it feels like I had a pull-up session, my arms almost fell off! Julia also came prepared by wearing a real painting clothes! haha so professionals! But me and Julia just do the one that so obviously different from white so we were faster and I will just hide some parts with some decorations 😉 #smart
Okay, back to my moving day. I have never feel so hungry after going back and forth carrying my stuff. To my surprise, Julius said “it was the fastest moving he’d ever done, only in less than 2 hours it’s all finished” Julia said “Marlyn, all the stuff that you have now is basically all the stuff we have in our Keller” In the middle of my process to die, I feel relieved that the Germans thought my stuff are very few #phew
One of the reason for me to move out is I’ve been one year in Germany, I felt it’s time for me to get out that tiny apartment to grow and start living. As usual Julius always have a final word “Marlyn you’d better stay, I don’t carry all the way your Kallax and Sofabed so you can just move out from Germany” haha don’t worry, I will! Thanks to all of you, my squad!
I had a bitter sweet moment with my small apartment, the place I called home for a year. My small, broken heating, broken switch, broken washing machine, crazy landlord, it’s all sounds bad but at least I had stories I can tell about my first experience living in Germany and for that memories, I thank you 🙂 However, I need to move on.
Cheers to a new life ahead!
