We did it!! We have officially moved from our tiny studio apartment into a much larger one bedroom villa! Although it was a lot of work, the actual moving part was pretty easy. We were very thankful to have the help of one of our Korean friends who drove us and our MANY shopping bags of "stuff" from the old place to the new place. I'm not sure how many times the three of us went up and down the five flights of stairs but it was definitely A LOT! (Though we think it's getting easier already :) ) We can already tell the unpacking part is much more difficult than throwing everything in suitcases and bags and moving it here. We did make a pretty good dent in things today and at least have the living room set up enough to have people over for a housewarming party tomorrow. But we are still in need of some more storage containers before the bedroom will be completely presentable. Our bosses stopped by our new place today to tell us congratulations and brought with them a pack of 30 rolls of toilet paper. One of our other Korean friends and his family came over tonight and brought along a pack of 30 rolls of toilet paper also. I don't think we will need to buy any for a very long time!
I must say it feels pretty much amazing to be sitting on our own couch in our own home! We have a real entry way, a real living room, a real kitchen and a real bedroom! (The bathroom is still kind of iffy but that's okay) We finally have the space and comforts to feel like we are in a home instead of a hotel room. It already feels like a place we will definitely enjoy calling home for the rest of our time here. We are very, very happy! I promise pictures will come tomorrow when we have had a little more time to get organized!
