Hey guys!
So as you can probably guess by the title of this post, I moved house! As you may know, I go to uni in Aberystwyth in Wales, but me and mum originally lived in Kent. Now, if you live in the southeast, you will know that the traffic is an absolute nightmare! I mean there isn't a time when the M25 and the roads near the Dartford crossing aren't busy! So with mum working all over the place, getting to and from work for her is pure hell! And it was safe to say, she absolutely hated it!
So after about ten months of weighing up the pros and cons, she made the executive decision to look for another job. Now she knew she wanted to move out of the southeast and away from the horrible traffic so she started looking for jobs up north but there just didn't seem to be anything. And then one day, a job popped up in would you believe it... Wales! So with the perfect job all we needed was the perfect house. Now it didn't bother me the thought of moving to Wales permanently as I live at uni for more of the year than I do at home. But still, I was super excited!
So off we set, looking at houses and bungalows all over Wales. Mum was more interested in bungalows which I wasn't so keen on. I didn't know how I felt about the lack of structural diversity, haha. But when we found THE ONE, it was all worth it. The new bungalow is beautiful! It has a large kitchen (which mum is so excited about as we've never had a kitchen as big, bless her), a gorgeous front room with so much space and a bath that you could disappear in - I mean its huge! The views from our back garden are stunning! Welsh countryside in every direction and the sea is only two miles away. What more could you want? And the best part, it is only 20 minutes away from uni so when I run out of food, I can just travel back home, for gorgeous home-cooked meals! Hahaha!
The only thing that needs doing is decorative work, so personalising it to our taste which I am very excited about as I just love redecorating! I find it so much fun! We'll be getting new carpets and painting the walls, re-wallpapering and we're having a woodburning stove installed! So for those wintery nights, we can curl up with a film and be all nice and cosy! And the thing I am most excited about is we have ordered a huge corner sofa for the living room! One of those ones that you could just stay there curled up for days because its so comfy! I'll do an updated blog post on when its all complete, so stay tuned :)
