How I did it: First I had to find somewhere to call home. I settled on a few areas that had the amenities I wanted - easy transport to the city, a vibrant local cafe scene, peaceful parks - and set about exploring weekly listings. I eventually found my new apartment through a tip from a friend - it wasn't perfect, but it was close enough and time was almost up.Second came the move itself. I had some help getting organised, but mostly did this by myself… Read how I did it…
Not a priority. I mean really. Everywhere I go is within easy walking distance and/or is well serviced by public transport. Couldn’t possibly justify the purchase!
