Hello Friends! Long time, no blog and for that, I am truly sorry. Life got so ridiculously busy this summer and then I moved! Can you believe that, I moved out of the city. Something I never thought that I would do, but here I am, in New Jersey…well Jersey City to be exact. I don’t even know where to begin, but long story short, I decided to move in with my boyfriend as we continue to move forward in our relationship and NJ just made more sense for us.
With that being said, boy o boy has it been an adjustment. I went from having my own spacious apartment in Harlem to having a shared, smaller (less expensive might I add) space in Jerz! So all in all, it was a no brainer. However, it left me with the huge task of merging our furniture and belongings and maximizing the space! In addition to all my “things”, I also brought over my cat (Mr. Big) and my plethora of plants. I hate to say it, but I quickly took over the space and realized that letting go of some of my things and putting others in storage was a must. After a grueling month and a half of moving, unpacking and storing, I think I have finally figured out the best set up for us. Stay tuned for some of the best tips I have thus far on how to merge, organize and keep organized, a smaller space for 2! xoxo, Maya
