First Steps…
Well the real estate agent has been notified and I’m moving house. Off to share a house which is something I haven’t done for over 5 years when I was studying in Melbourne. It’s going to be interesting but to over halve my rent and split my bills 3 ways the savings are going to be overwhelming worth it if I intend to leave for Europe in April next year.
This does mean I have been left trying to find a home for a unit full of furniture and the like. Most will be stored back home in the parents shed, which means boxing everything up to save it from possible water leaks and mice along with a rogue cow that may find its way in there. Some items like my old hand-me-down couch will being retired to the great couch god in the sky, while my table and chairs will be flogged off in the local rag for a fraction of what they cost me.
Compacting back down into one room when for the last 9 years I’ve been doing the exact opposite is going to be difficult but if it gets me to my goal its well worth it. In a way its forcing me to rid the excess baggage I’ve collected over time which is rather refreshing, a way to start anew so to speak, the beginning of a great adventure…
