As a note: I could see out of my passenger window + I could see both side mirrors. I could also see out the back a bit! A quilt held things back in my backseat. The angle with which I took the thumbnail pic is strange, so I wanted to clarify! In the chaos of moving alone, I didn't get to show this well. If you’re making a long drive like this, remember - safety first! :)
Wowww I am so impressed by how independent you are! I know you had some struggles but that is normal. I just moved for the first time (30 min away with my bf) and I just had a terrible time moving. I couldn't do it without my friends and family. It seems so exciting but it is so stressful. I commend you and your strength!
omg that vintage market was DREAMY!! when i left LA i missed the local artisan fairs the most. this video was so thorough & thoroughly sentimental!!! your love for minneapolis really leapt out. would love to see more vloggy vids in CO!!
I just made this exact move (moving by car and all), but in reverse! I'm from MN originally, then moved to CO for three years, and just moved back to MN. It's bittersweet, but Colorado is amazing! Best of luck!
I hope you are proud and giving yourself a pat on the back for taking this on! Even under the best circumstances moving is so so difficult, just wanted to give you props for powering through. You've gained a new subscriber. Best of luck
Girl!!! Let me tell ya, I needed this video for motivation. I’m also moving to Colorado in a couple of months from TX. Excited for that fresh start, but also bittersweet leaving a place I’ve personally developed in. Good luck to you and your new beginning. Cheers to us new mountain gals 🥂🏔💚
Ahhh, I loved everything about this video! I've never moved long distances and it was so interesting watching you sell so much and pack. Colorado looks amazing!! Wishing you both every happiness 😊
I’m currently a design student at UMN and I found your channel through your study abroad videos (I had planned on doing the same program but COVID put a wrench in those plans for me). It’s been so wonderful to see your life in MPLS and I wish you weren’t leaving, but best of luck in Colorado!
I used the ubox storage unit for my move from ohio to minnesota! Was a little pricey but storage is included which i didn’t think was needed but ended up being a lifesaver. We were able to move his old furniture out for mine and kind of lay stuff out. And i drove my 2007 hyundai accent 13 hours while my pod was being shipped. With covid, all the highways were pretty much empty but it was really fun. Safe and happy journey! :)
I've lived in Minneapolis for over 27 years and I am now considering a move out west... When you said this is an ending of an era, I cried! 🥺 I truly love Minneapolis but it's time for a change. Thank you so much for sharing
I'm currently considering moving back to France after years of living in Scotland (it'll be 7 years in September), and the prospect of packing the contents of my one bedroom flat into a car to cross the border without leaving my prized possessions behind is daunting to say the least. So I guess oddly this is the video I needed?? loved your home tour too btw but this hit the spot for me.
I’m from Mississippi and moved to the Whittier area of Minneapolis a year ago after living abroad for 3 years by myself, and my husband joined me later. Minnesota is nice, but I feel like living abroad has completely changed how I view...living. Already planning the next move. Very informative video! I feel like you planned out your selling and donations so well. Congratulations! I know how hard it was alone!
This is so relatable right now, I moved from Minneapolis to California last year and moving is so exhausting and what a long haul you had to do. I bet spreading it out over a couple of weeks helped you to process. THOSE VACUUM SEAL BAGS THOUGHHHH
This is the first video of yours I’ve seen but I love it! Your editing, how you talk to the camera, etc. Huge congratulations on the move and I hope we can see some design videos in the new place!
I'm moving from Minneapolis to Utah this month - thanks for the vintage shop recommendation and the other tips! P.S. love your hair and I'm so glad Target lets you work remote
Wow looking at all the comments I see so many people are moving to Colorado. I guess this is why the interstates and hwys are so busy now. Lived in boulder area my whole life. Love it
I want to move to Colorado in the next year from the east coast so I appreciated this vlog so much. Thank you and hope you're enjoying it up in the mountains ❤️❤️
Wow I am going to reference this video the next time I move! Love the Pinterest board breakdown and the layout prep. Just found your channel today, love your content already!
I made a move to CO about 2.5 years ago from NYC. And I did the same, packed up my car and drove 2,000 miles. I did have a bit of help. There were some great pieces of furniture and more boxes that couldn’t fit in my car so I left them with my parents in PA. And because it was just me, I took my time and made it a fun road trip. Hope you’re enjoying the state. 🙂
I just came back from Colorado today! It was so amazing spending time in the Rockies. I know you’ll love CO, i feel like it definitely fits your vibes! Happy new year! 🥳
Well welcome to Colorado. :-) My wife and I moved here from Buffalo NY in 2006 and fell in love with it immediately. We also go to Minnesota each year for an anime convention (sans Covid years), so I know how long and boring the drive between areas can be, especially when going through Iowa. UGH!! Hope you enjoy it here.
So excited and happy for you! I'm also planning to move from Minnesota to Colorado to reunite with my partner and making it happen this year since I decided to postpone my plans due to the pandemic. I can't wait! Hope you're settling well :D
Omg you have so much clothes. I can’t believe you moved all that stuff out of your apartment so quickly, that would’ve taken me forever. I don’t think everything I own could fit into my car so kiddos, I feel like the amount of clothes you have is equal to the amount of books I own.
Hey Tara. I first watched you when I was in college and now I've finally graduated! Didn't know you were posting again until today when I got your apartment tour on my homepage. Good luck with everything you're doing :)
This vlog was so pleasant!! 😂😂 I love your style! I'm guessing the algorithm aggressively recommend this video because I just made the cross country move from AL to CO. Sold all my stuff and made my way to the mountains.
Hehe this reminds me of moving to CO. I had a taped square with the dimensions of my hubby's vehicle. Well I didn't account for slope so I couldn't fit some stuff..lucky I could leave it at my mom's and or did last minute donations! Welcome to CO!! 🥰
Sad I only just found you in the last week! I I’m a thrifter in the twin cities. My hubby and I want to leave the cold someday, but for now I’ll just live vicariously through others who get out lol! To be fair, the weather hasn’t been too bad this year, but definitely not Thai food in a park kind of days! Good luck to you!
I'm going to be 100% honest...I'm going to miss the dining chairs!!! And the worst part... their not available right now! Wait Overstock has them MWHAHA...Anywho :) I'm so happy for you! I really hope you enjoy Colorado and and spending more time with Henry!!! Stay safe , happy and healthy!!
Organization goals, I swear. I didn't even think about using up the money on the laundry app, gotta remember that one for the future. What did you end up doing with your mattress?
I’m literally just as obsessive about my space and moving girl I feel you. Plan that shit out!! Envision it!! 😤😤 lol. Maybe it’s a designer’s personality trait ..
loved this video, tara! can't wait to see your new adventures in colorado. i moved from seattle to north carolina earlier this year, so i really understand the struggle of moving far and during the pandemic! side note: where are all of your matching sweatsuits from? they're so cute
Wow. In awe that you did that all by yourself! AMAZIN’. Screaming at the first scene of you and Henry together in Colorado is him putting on your iconic Jack Black lip balm 😂😂 Also, what style boots were you wearing throughout the majority of the vid?! They’re so cute!!!
Honestly I would never want to do all of that alone again lol. And lol yes, I got him addicted as well!! And they’re Doc Martens! www.drmartens.com/us/en/p/womens-boots-burnished-wyoming-leonore
Hi Tara, nice video. I recently moved from Minneapolis myself from basically the same area. I was directly across the street from Lauren Park. I moved to California of all places. I don’t think I’ll be staying in California after my lease is up but I thought about moving to CO, OR, or WA. My question to you is, why did you decide to move to CO? Also, I think you chose the perfect time to move from your neighborhood. When I left there, it had gotten so bad. Hopefully things have changed in the 6 months since I’ve been away.
Hey Tara! I currently live in Wisconsin (I have lived in the northern half of the state my entire life) and I’m planning on packing up my life and starting fresh somewhere new this fall! Des monies, twin cities area (probably St. Paul) and Colorado are all on my list!! The only other places are Madison Wi and Asheville actually. I was wondering if you could do a video on the pros and cons of each place you’ve lived. I would appreciate it so much!! ☺️
Which type of car do you have? I’m moving California to colorado on this weekend and I have 1 large bag 1 M bag 1 cooler, 2 carry on 3 backpack. I’m renting a car full size, I hope everything can fit
As a note: I could see out of my passenger window + I could see both side mirrors. I could also see out the back a bit! A quilt held things back in my backseat. The angle with which I took the thumbnail pic is strange, so I wanted to clarify!
In the chaos of moving alone, I didn't get to show this well.

Genuinely so impressed by how organized you are with everything! I moved this year and it’s so stressful! Congrats!
Yes it is sooooo stressful 😭 and thank you!!
I just made this exact move (moving by car and all), but in reverse! I'm from MN originally, then moved to CO for three years, and just moved back to MN. It's bittersweet, but Colorado is amazing! Best of luck!
No idea who u are, but UA-cam recommended this video and I’m glad they did. Proud of you!!! From a fellow Minnesotan ♥️
I hope you are proud and giving yourself a pat on the back for taking this on! Even under the best circumstances moving is so so difficult, just wanted to give you props for powering through. You've gained a new subscriber. Best of luck
I’m moving to Minneapolis this summer and your video has really encouraged me that everything will fit in my car haha! Congrats on your move!
glad I'm not the only one with wayyy too many tote bags - but will have to use that packing tip for the future! hope you're enjoying colorado! 🏔
Just moved back home to Minnesota and already thinking about my next move once the finances is on point!
Girl!!! Let me tell ya, I needed this video for motivation. I’m also moving to Colorado in a couple of months from TX. Excited for that fresh start, but also bittersweet leaving a place I’ve personally developed in. Good luck to you and your new beginning. Cheers to us new mountain gals 🥂🏔💚
Good luck to you as well!!
I live in Mississippi and I plan on making the move to Denver Colorado in July! I’m so excited! So ready to join y’all mountain gals! Lol
Stay the FUCK in Texas...we don't need any more people moving out here!
Wow your hair looks beautiful when it’s down and natural but you look gorgeous with it pulled back! Best of luck on the big move
I was thinking the same thing!!!
Ahhh, I loved everything about this video! I've never moved long distances and it was so interesting watching you sell so much and pack. Colorado looks amazing!! Wishing you both every happiness 😊
I haven't been to this channel in a while 💛 hey! I use to watch you all the time when I was 16 I'm now 23...just wanted to say that 💁🏾♀️

Hi! I’m from MS too and debating on moving to Minneapolis since hearing how good it is to live there. How is it living there? And the people?
This is so relatable right now, I moved from Minneapolis to California last year and moving is so exhausting and what a long haul you had to do. I bet spreading it out over a couple of weeks helped you to process. THOSE VACUUM SEAL BAGS THOUGHHHH
I’m thinking of doing the same! How’s your experience been?
Welcome to Colorado! We took a road trip to move here from Florida in 2018. I was excited about the windmills too!
Okay, officially obsessed with your channel 5 minutes after finding it!
This is the first video of yours I’ve seen but I love it! Your editing, how you talk to the camera, etc. Huge congratulations on the move and I hope we can see some design videos in the new place!
so glad I found your channel, literally found you by pure chance! Your vibe is so calm and relaxing
I'm moving from Minneapolis to Utah this month - thanks for the vintage shop recommendation and the other tips! P.S. love your hair and I'm so glad Target lets you work remote
Wow looking at all the comments I see so many people are moving to Colorado. I guess this is why the interstates and hwys are so busy now. Lived in boulder area my whole life. Love it
I see that too and I’m headed to Minnesota as soon as I find a place.

I’m moving from Minnesota to New Mexico at the end of December. Thanks for the inspiration!

So excited and happy for you! I'm also planning to move from Minnesota to Colorado to reunite with my partner and making it happen this year since I decided to postpone my plans due to the pandemic. I can't wait! Hope you're settling well :D
Well wishes!! I'm doing the same, from Minneapolis to COS springs. Spreading the good vibes ahead 💕
NO...stay in Minnesota where you are at!
This video was so well done!! Congrats on your move, Tara!
yess go tara!! moving is stressfulll so glad you made it safely! i hope everything is going well ❤️

may I just say stellar intro, really captures the chaos and exhaustion of moving lol
This video was so amazing Tara! Congratulations on the move!

Come on down to Texas! 70s and sunny in winter 😆
Moving is stressful enough, let alone doing it on your own AND vlogging the whole thing 👏🔥🔥🔥 ps loved the music
Sad to see you go, but happy to see you grow, love from Minnesota
Congrats on the move!! Can't wait for the new vlogs xo
Colorado is gorgeous, I hope you love it!
I’m also in Minnesota and moving to Colorado in March In my car!! Congratulations I just subscribed ❤️🤗🤗
The footage from your lunchtime stroll is right next to my gf's apartment :) All the good food right on Nicollet. Glad your move went well!
Ooh, such a cute area! And thank you!
The irony. I was watching this video thinking of how she reminded me of you😂
@@opempem Girrrlllll this is too funny. Tara and I have v similar aesthetics and a major love for Target...
Welcome to CO! I'm in the process of moving next week and I'm the say way! I've already figured out the next apartment layout :)
This was really fun to watch!
Amazing! I'm from MN and actually going to CO this week to potentially move there!!
I'm going to be 100% honest...I'm going to miss the dining chairs!!! And the worst part... their not available right now! Wait Overstock has them MWHAHA...Anywho :) I'm so happy for you! I really hope you enjoy Colorado and and spending more time with Henry!!! Stay safe , happy and healthy!!
Sooo exciting! And what red lip is this?? It’s so pretty!
Thank you! It’s Beso from Stila!
I was about to ask the same 😄 So pretty!
You’re such a trooper! You did that girl!
Moved to Colorado from Pennsylvania in august for school. I absolutely love it.

New subscriber here. So glad I found your gorgeous channel. Love the vibe and can't wait to follow your journey!
Love this so much. I live in MN too and dream of moving to Colorado 🤩
Any good affordable areas in Minnesota?
Another Minneapolis gal moving to CO!! I moved 6 months ago and the drive was ridiculous!! Hopefully you took the scenic route to CO ☺️
I love your music selection !
Love your moving videos, so interesting to see someone elses moving process! Also, must know! Wheres your cream/beige sweatsuit from?
Thank you! And it’s from Girlfriend Collective :)
Organization goals, I swear. I didn't even think about using up the money on the laundry app, gotta remember that one for the future. What did you end up doing with your mattress?
So brave. You are my inspiration.
I’m literally just as obsessive about my space and moving girl I feel you. Plan that shit out!! Envision it!! 😤😤 lol. Maybe it’s a designer’s personality trait ..

Love the vids Tara, happy new year too (from England)❤️💕
Congrats on the move!!
Lived in Colorado for 50 years! Seriously. Left because it was getting soooooo busy. Now I’m in Minnesota albeit not the Cities. Funny!
aaahhh so excited for you!! 💕💕
Wow. In awe that you did that all by yourself! AMAZIN’. Screaming at the first scene of you and Henry together in Colorado is him putting on your iconic Jack Black lip balm 😂😂

@@TaraEfobi I don’t blame you!!! But you did amazing!!!! So excited to see the new life content in Colorado 😭
Ooooo thank you!
Hi Tara, nice video. I recently moved from Minneapolis myself from basically the same area. I was directly across the street from Lauren Park. I moved to California of all places.
I don’t think I’ll be staying in California after my lease is up but I thought about moving to CO, OR, or WA. My question to you is, why did you decide to move to CO?
Also, I think you chose the perfect time to move from your neighborhood. When I left there, it had gotten so bad. Hopefully things have changed in the 6 months since I’ve been away.
I’m from Colorado so this was in my recommendations , welcome.
how do you add the animation to your text???
I moved from Maryland to Vegas in November. It was quite the experience, not alone though.
Hey Tara! I currently live in Wisconsin (I have lived in the northern half of the state my entire life) and I’m planning on packing up my life and starting fresh somewhere new this fall! Des monies, twin cities area (probably St. Paul) and Colorado are all on my list!! The only other places are Madison Wi and Asheville actually. I was wondering if you could do a video on the pros and cons of each place you’ve lived. I would appreciate it so much!! ☺️
omg same
You killed it!
Congrats on the move! Shoutout to Merle Hay Rd and the Sinclair dinosaur 😂 Could you link the undies recycler somewhere?
This was such a good video
Which type of car do you have? I’m moving California to colorado on this weekend and I have 1 large bag 1 M bag 1 cooler, 2 carry on 3 backpack. I’m renting a car full size, I hope everything can fit
how do you make something so stressful seem so serene and aesthetic
Do you remember how many boxes you shipped and how much you spent to ship them?
so satisfying
I live in Colorado trust me it's so fun and their so many nice people you'll love living in Colorado
In CO. Here for you.
Welcome to Colorado!
Girl you moved here just in time for the snow ❄️
I loveee your green windbreaker/puffer coat 3.10! Where did you get it from?
how much did it cost you to ship your things through the post office?
