New closets to outgrow (we moved house!)

View of the river and city from the park nearby
It's been a while since I've been active on this blog now, and I think it's time to change that! Life in Brisbane is still exciting, there's lots of things to explore and I continue to be amazed by the beauty of this country.

We recently moved house and I can say that I finally feel like we're somewhere I can truly call home. I absolutely LOVE our new place and am enjoying seeing it all come together as we unpack. 

Our new home is right next to a beautiful park (with subsequently beautiful birds, sunsets and river-walks), and there's a grocery store, pharmacy and post office just across the road. Being close to the river, we're also a short stroll from the CityCat and, as such, the city. I couldn't be happier! :D

There are also 2 bathrooms, both with bathtubs, that I forgot to take photos of! Love it! :D

And last, a few photos of our wonderful Tigerpus, who couldn't be happier with her new home! <3

Beautiful and very deadly


Have you made any exciting changes in 2014 so far?

Where thou art - that - is Home

Tigerpus
This weekend another piece of the "moving to Brisbane" puzzle came together as my partner and I moved into our very own little cottage. I love it! :D There is plenty of space for both us and the latest addition to our little family - Tigerpus!

Once we finally got power in the house (we moved in on the weekend and had to go 3 days without electricity) I could finally cook our very first meal in the new house - Norwegian style tomato soup! Haha.

I can't wait until we get everything settled and can just kick back on the balcony, and enjoy the sun overlooking our (very overgrown) garden with sunflowers and all! I even spotted some lorikeets in a tree nearby! :D

Our little cottage
I just love the style of the cottage, all the space and especially our back balcony! :)

Livingroom and kitchen

One of these bedrooms has become our very own little walk-in closet! It's a dream come true!

Bedrooms and bathroom

Unfortunately, moving house also means we'll be without Internet for the next 2-3 weeks as that takes some time to set up! :( So this is also my very first mobile blog post and it'll probably go a bit longer between posts... Hope it still looks OK! 

Have you got any exciting plans for the weekend? I'm thinking BBQ on the balcony! :D
