We signed a contract for a new apartment!
On Saturday we woke up to a day full of snowing and we almost decided to stay at home and postpone our plans. But we have been too excited about this weekend so we ended up leaving in a rush in the morning before the real snow came down. We took a taxi to Grand Central, bought coffee and took the train to Stamford, CT.
After signing a bunch of papers, Jim and I took the elevator up and walked to the end of the long hallway. I was so excited! At first when I opened the door I thought everything looked small, but after walking around I realized how big it actually is. Our new home:)
We are not moving until our current lease is up in the end of March, but we got offered to put the apartment on hold and be able to sign contract beforehand. Its a brand new building, our apartment is expected to be finished in like two weeks, so that’s why we can sign now and move in later.
We have been there twice before and we decided on this apartment right before Christmas, so I have been excited for a while. Its almost twice the size as our current apt so we need new furniture, so I’ve been on pinterest a lot to find inspiration and find out what I want.
It’s less than three months of living on Manhattan and we have things we want to cross off our NYC list. Its easy to commute between Stamford and NYC (which I plan to do), but it feels nice to cross things off and not have to think about tourist stuff after we move:)
