Apartment Living

We lived in apartments for significant portions of our decade living in the USA. I actually loved apartment life for a few reasons:

  • amenities such as pool and gym
  • no yardwork 
  • no snow shoveling
  • maintenance is done by staff
I think there are a few important tips to share about apartment living though:

  • Minimalist living is a must (don't hoard things you don't use/need)
  • If possible pay for an undercover parking spot
  • Try to find an apartment with no steps from the parking lot to the door or with an elevator
  • Make sure the washer and dryer are a decent size
  • Invest in effective storage (baskets, bins, shelving etc)

This was a great space to spend the months whilst waiting for our furniture to get to Australia.
