Reading ginsterbusch's journal

Last friday we made the final step: Moving all the neccessary stuff over to our brand-new flat. One that'll be big enough to accomodate not only us but also friends from far and not-so-far away, who are going to visit us. ;)

Some stats right now:

1. 65 qm, kitchen + bathroom not counted in

2. 3 rooms - sleeping room, living room, small office/work room

3. located in a town / small city which itself is located at the begin of the GermanBlack Forest - thus we've got a great view ;)

4. cheap - including all extra charges it's just 460 euro per month I gotta chip of my salary ;)

5. quite amazing fact: I pay half the price for electricity I've been paying in Karlsruhe for a one-room appartment!

6. it's just 2 km to the next big city, Pforzheim* (which itself sucks ... a lot. but at least you've got lots of shopping malls there ;))

* note: I'm using the German wikipedia articles, because there are nearly always English equivalents AND the German ones are normally way better than its foreign versions.

65 qm, kitchen bathroom not counted in
3 rooms - sleeping room, living room, small office/work room

Wow! Are you sure it is only 65 sqm?? If you have so many rooms it must be bigger. Ours is 120 sqm and it has a living room, a bedroom and a smaller room we'll be using as Neil's office and my ironing corner :P Plus of course bathroom and kitchen. I don't know, I really cannot picture your 3 rooms in only 65 sqm... maybe it's more than that? :P

At any rate, it is definitely a good price for all of that "good stuff". We pay 600€ a month (plus 60€ for the expenditures) and we'll have an additional 900-1000€ for heating.

I can't wait to see some pictures of your little nest :)

Because of the used technology it's included in the electricity costs.

yes, I am sure. Those flats always look as they were bigger, eg. my grandma is living in a flat in Munich for over 40 years which in itself has just the size of 45 sqm, ie. 2 rooms + kitchen. It looks bigger because of the kitchen and corridor.

If you would count in the kitchen - which (in Germany) regularly WONT be counted into the official size! - it'll be probably 80 - 85 sqm.

I'm going to post some when the digicam is working again AND my beloved one agrees to that ;)
