Print this PostWhen I first arrived in Spain in September, I signed a lease that would last until June and, well, June is here and my lease is up. I’ve decided to move to a new apartment that is more centrally located rather than renewing this lease, which means that this week I am going to “make the big move” to my new place.
Right now, I’m in “packing mode” and am sitting in my room looking around me. I have boxes scattered all over the floor, a large garbage bag full of things I’m going to throw out, open suitcases, and lots and lots of dust (it seems like whenever you move you find dust in places you never thought possible). I guess to get through it all I just have to keep in mind my nice, new place waiting for me.
Hopefully, by this time next week I will be all moved into my new place. I’m going to take the move a little slow because here I do not have a car and thus have to move things by foot and rely on friends with cars. In any event, if the blog is a little “neglected” over the next couple of days, it’s due to the move. I’ll be “back on track” next week!
Hasta luego,

Best of luck with the rest of your move! Must be frustrating having to rely on friends or move it all by foot.
@Jessi – Thanks for the “encouragement.” It is a little frustrating, but I’ll get it done. hahaaha You should see the mess of boxes I have right now!
I’ve moved no less than once every 3 years. And I’m a packrat, it seems, so I know the pain, lol.
@Jessi – Yeah, at least since this move was in Spain, I had accumulated less stuff…. I could just imagine if I had been living here longer though.
Note to all: I made the move today and I’m FINALLY settled in my new place.
maybe I was worng this was sometime ago!
I didn’t notice the date was on the 20th hehe!
I hate moving too but I will tell you something!
Moving helps you find your real friends that’s for sure!
@bbrian017 – It’s true what you say about “real friends” when moving. I was lucky to have some good ones who helped me a lot with the move.
