Move in is the next few weeks. I've lived on my "own" (roommate I never interacted with) for a couple months my last semester of college, but that was a temporary setup whereas I'm hopefully moving out for good this time.
Bear in mind that the place has window/wall A/C and electric heating.
Things I'm already considering:
- Drain guard
- Bidet
- Cold brew coffee maker
- Rice cooker
- Space heater? I'd like to keep the temp largely down during the winter to save money while warming up the part of the place I'm in
- Key for washer/dryer
Things I already have:
- Most furniture
- Air fryer
- Seltzer water thingy
- Meal prep containers
General advice is also welcome!
Have you considered using a bunch of empty liquor bottles as decoration? An empty bottle of Jameson on a mantle or on a windowsill has a je ne sais quoi that well put together apartments rarely have.
Doubly so if you don't actually drink.
Next time I move into my own place, I am aiming to have a framed picture of Josip Tito next to an empty bottle of Tito's Handmade Vodka somewhere visible but not prominent as an irl visual gag.
