New Year start

Happy New Year! Hope you all had great NY Eve party!
I spent it quietly this year with Uri and Ana Maria. I landed on Schipol around 18.00 and had hard time staying awake. Had a glass of lovely champagne with Ana Maria and Uri and went straight to the dreamland.



Next morning I went to my new place to hang curtains I brought from Seoul, I also took one rug and some paintings for the flat.

The apartment has a lot of light and a nice view.

The views I have from my apartment are

great!


In the evening of Jan 1st I had a visit from Ylona and Eleni. With empty fridge and no drinks I was not a good hostess, but Ylona lives just 100m from my house and we moved for some wine to her place.
On Jan 2nd we moved from things from AM second house to mine. Movers were fantastic. Four boys moved the entire house by 1 pm. I got my bedroom, living room, study, dining table and a second big fridge.
Jan 3rd and 4th I spent shopping. Bought a sofa and a table (see photo).

TV and stereo, laptop and PDP/TV. Decided on curtains for living room and bedroom and framed three paintings.


I was several times at Ikea and at Gelderplain. I shopped big and I loved it. What a great new year start! I met Laura - a Brazilian cleaning lady who is very nice and excellent cleaner. Met with Cees - the painter who has to build-in wardrobes and make some other changes in the flat.
It was a short visit, but I accomplished a lot thanks to AM guidance.
I hardly wait to see a place in three weeks as on my way to Kiev I'll stop in A'dam.

I also went to see my first flat. I could not go in (it's rented) but have some photos from outside. My small flat is in the first building from the right with three windows on the 2nd floor.
