- .......and the location is everything|! So come see how many boxes I've unpacked and what life is like in Hove Actually. (It's called that by the locals because when people ask where we live we often say Hove Actually instead of Brighton, although we are one and the same! It's a lovely village area very close to the city center but a bit different.)
USEFUL INFO.

Great to see you so content with the new flat. I admire your bravery! I am almost 73 but do not want to think about moving. Living in my home for 31 years now.
Ditto. I have no ties to where I live but don’t know where to go - and then have no friends to help me there. Difficult, isn’t it?
My mom moved 150 miles across the state in her 70's, same with my sister.
Delighted with your updates Suzi
Happy Days ahead especially
As we all get into the festive Mood
Of Christmas
So happy for you now in your new
Apartment.
Full steam ahead 🎆👏

@@EdelweisSusie I just did it. Start researching best places to retire. Then check City-Data forums by state or country for more info. Then start giving away, selling or throwing away stuff you've accumulated whether you ultimately move or not.
What a lovely positive comment @@marysmyth8288
You don't need makeup - you look gorgeous! I love your energy - and your new FLAT!!! So exciting!
@@janosz193 thank you SO much x
Good lord woman you have some energy! Most of us have boxes unpacked for months after moving. Glad you're settling in well.
WhT do you take to keep you going. ❤
Quite amazing you be so happy there. 😂
I subscribe to Jo Good's channel, too. When I retired I decided to move cross country two months ago to a cheaper and safer area. I had as many boxes as you! Friends and relatives had died or moved away so why not be alone in a new city? It's an adventure and keeps my brain stimulated. Living on a pension, I don't have a car, daily errands are within walking distance. I take Uber for longer trips, plan to learn how to take the bus, and in the spring rent a car to sight-see farther afield. Winter is the perfect time to get sorted as there are no outside distractions. I've subscribed to see your further adventures!
50 boxes in three days is amazing to me. I'm inspired now to go through one container I've been staring at for three weeks. Love your enthusiasm.
You got this!
Ah Suzi the feelings you shared when walking around enjoying everything going on after living somewhere much quieter really resonates with me. The people, the shops restaurants etc was just lovely and reminded me of when hubby and I moved from an extremely quiet (although beautiful) village in Norfolk to the beautiful vibrant city of York. That feeling of being in the midst of life is just wonderful isn’t it 🤗🥂❤️
Good move on selling the car, parking is àn absolute nightmare in Brighton. Crikey, I'm feeling very minimal compared to you and your friend, but as my house is the size of a rabbit hutch it's so much easier. Well done on unpacking the boxes so quickly, what a mammoth task! Wishing you much happiness in your new flat. X
That sparkly dress is amazing... the happiness is wonderful pouring out of you❤
You look really happy. It must be a relief to have made a good decision. I wish you all the best.
Your new flat is gorgeous! I recently moved to a smaller house, it was an adjustment, I got rid of the things that really didn’t add anything to my life, it is much easier to maintain and clean so I have more free time, and am much happier now. I wish you all the happiness in your new place!
Congratulations to moving into your beautiful flat. Finally!Brighton looks beautiful and vibrant.It's good to see you looking so happy.
Morning, I am so pleased the move went well for you, and that you know it was right to relocate to where you are now. Thank you for showing us around. You did so well with the boxes - better than I would have done! By your next vlog you will be very much more sorted, and had lots of outings. Take care and stay safe. I loved watching and listening to you - so much energy!
I'm so pleased to see you getting settled, it's very exciting styling your place and realising how little you really need❤
Susie, thanks to your vlog filmed at Circles, I spotted something in the shop I really liked, I then called the owner who got back to me really quickly, (a rare thing these days!), and I will be going to Circles tomorrow to try on the item. So thank you to you, it has been a roundabout but very satisfactory way to possibly buying a lovely pre-loved piece of clothing!
The women in your video are absolutely gorgeous. The lady with the short white hair looked like Judi Dench. Love your new apt. with your new/old furniture.
The bigger the space the more you fill it!! Just like handbags🤦♀️ 😂😂😂 lighting and mirrors are everything 🥰🎅🏼☃️🎄
I have lived in the same home all my life. Don’t know what that says about me. I’m 73. Didn’t marry until I was 51 and we decided to live in my home rather than his! Love your new place.
You are positively glowing with happiness and contentment. So, so happy for you that your new home is bringing you joy. What energy to have unpacked all those boxes so quickly. And yes, many people when they move (me included) feel the same…..”why did I pack so much, why did I keep that”. I am slowly divesting myself of so much stuff. Every time I am in a drawer/cupboard I now say to myself “what can I get rid of”. Once you start it gets easier. I want it done while I am still fit (close to 70). I look forward to you showing us all the lovely places in your new neighborhood.❤
Oh, your new place is just BEAUTIFUL 🏠❤
Looking fabulous as always...so pleased you have your flat now 😊 and I'm the same if I have a busy day ahead I cannot sleep the night before
Moving is the worst. Glad its behind you now.
What lovely light you have in there. Brighton looks like an ideal place to live.
Wishing you many years of happiness in you’re lovely apartment 🍾🥂
Change is good. Helps one get excited about life again plus clean out everything we don’t need and lighten our load. Love the idea of having meditation so close. You have it all now. Life will get better and better and so will your health . Hugs and best wishes.🌺
You look so happy - you’re a joy to watch💜🇦🇺
Congratulations 🎊 your new home is gorgeous have fun declutering and organizing your life. Wonderful video.
So excited to see you've finally landed in the new place. Love the walking tours. I'll have to save my shekels and try to get to the Brighton area. Hope you table arrives sooner than later. I like both of the chair purchases.
I'm so glad to see feeling at home , enjoyed the your tour ,

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Morning Suzi, So pleased you are so happy after your move. Nice that you know the area after living there years ago. It wont be long before you get straight. Weather has been dull and horrid. Saw the film "Conclave" this week about the pope dying didn't think I would like it but I actually did, worth a watch. Got two Christmas lunches this week so looking forward to them. Stay well and happy. Lv Suex
Thank you Sue, isn’t it dull and horrid. Would love to some sun but not ready to go away yet. Thanks for the review on Conclave , will watch it when and if! Have fun with the Christmas socialising, I love it too. Suzi x
Your flat is lovely, well chosen, it's a warm hug of a flat!
Oh Suzi your beautiful new home is pure pleasure! I have the same bedside lamp ha ha! Enjoy unpacking slowly x
Congrats on your new home! Have fun with it & your new surroundings!!
Thank you! Will do!
Wishing you health and happiness in your new home
With your fabulous taste and design flair it will be amazing
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you!
Good to see you have moved. Takes a while to get sorted and then get settled. Enjoy your new home. Look in a great position. My hands have grown too!! Had to give some rings away recently 😢.
Great vlog today - you have done SO much, SO fast! Can’t wait for more Christmas “stuff”🎄
Amanda is very talented. I love her use of color & detail.🎨🖼💐
What a delight to find your channel. Really enjoyed this video and subscribed - thanks for sharing. I am due to retire next year - what an inspiration you are. Much love.
Fantastic home.❤
Hi Suzi. I was amused to see you walking through Palmeira Square where I live. Yes there are restaurants ,hairdressers,beauty parlours,launderette/alterations,pilates,yoga etc. It’s a great place to live. I’m a fit (tennis playing) 75 year old and glad I moved here a few years ago.If I see you around I’ll say hi and ask you back for coffee!
Congratulations on your new nest! And to selling your car $$$$ I think your new home is turning out to be so glamorous and I know you’re going to have so much fun entertaining! I read an article that explained how mentally beneficial it is to live by the water, “blue spaces” they called it, and that it keeps your mind healthy from dementia! (I’m so glad I live on a big blue lake) 😊 I truly love your beach walks and hearing the seagulls squawking about. I especially love all the clothing shops and your upbeat, positive vibes! I’m wishing you all the happiness, and great energy in your love filled home!
I am so happy for you and we all look forward to you making your lovely new home yours 👏👏👏👏⭐️⭐️🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄
I hope you will be very happy in your new home. 🎉
I’m so glad everything went well with the move , it will all get sorted out eventually x
When you walked us past the boxes in your hall into the lounge with your new sofa, we shouted ohhhhhhh, now that’s fab! The greenery outside is heavenly! How brill is the BUZZ of the area, then home to your own quiet cosy place! WE LOVE IT!
Susie you looked amazing in that sparkling dress, and the apartment looks wonderful you’ve got yourself well situated, lots of positive energy, from Kat in Canada
Suzy I did a little research on Brighton, and I know why you love it. Seems like the most perfect place to live and enjoy. It’s less expensive than Manhattan, not that I live there. Wishing you the happiness that we all deserve
Can’t wait to see the Suzie stamp on the rest of the apartment, but it’s definitely very YOU already!
I love the area you live in now. It kinda looks like London.. How fun, cafes, restaurants, yoga, meditation. It looks lively, colorful.. Yay!
Brighton is known as London by the sea. I love it there.
So glad you're finally in your new place. Love the photo stills of Brighton. Loved seeing little landmarks in Brighton, and the piers that have been featured in so many movies.
You look so much more relaxed in your face and demeanour.The flat is lovely and will look great as you put your stamp on it.
That's some going to emptying all those boxes in 3 days.My friend moved to Devon lived there for 5 years never unpacked her garage full of boxes and then moved them to Yorkshire near me.We figured she never needed what was in them so we took 10 big boxes to the hospice shop unopened she has never missed them Great you are so happy looking forward to future vlogs in Hove.xx
Awe thank you so much. I look really tired to me and feel it but am very happy! Just too much to move before Christmas and get to all the parties! I need a day of doing absolutely nothing which I hope will be Sunday. I think I would have left my unpacking far longer if I had had a garage but I quite agree, if you didn’t need it in months then why keep it! Love that story.. I said the same over and over and will be doing even more culling than I have already. Suzi x
Love your flat and wishing you every happiness in your new home Suzi
Happy New home. You look so happy, it's wonderful to see. Love your friends art, it's awesome. Can't believe you've emptied 50 boxes, your energy is amazing. Your going too be so happy, everything on your doorstep, including the sea, wonderful. Have a great week.🐞
Your flat is lovely.... you will make it even more fabulous.
Wishing you happiness in your new abode. 😊❤
Happy living in your flat.
Its a beautiful flat.
🎉🎉🎉
Congrats on a stress free move in. Soon there will be only the original upside down house in Brighton. Great place. Love how life imitates art, well done Amanda. So colorful.
Suze you are an inspiration
Wishing you every happiness in your new home
God bless ❤❤

How exciting your own place, finally. If I could walk everywhere or take a train I would love it …USA
How fabulous for you, I love it.. ☺️ enjoy
Hi, Suzy!
I remember when you mentioned castor oil in one of the videos. When you didn't like its thick consistency. Castor oil must be warmed, then it becomes liquid and very well applied to the skin. Pour it into a small container (as much as you want to use) and put it in a hot water bath, it heats up very quickly in this way, then you can apply it to the skin or add it to other products - serums, creams, oils. And when you apply any product on your face (before and at the moment) it is good to have a massage. This is how lymphatic drainage works - blood circulation. As a result of which the effect is much more effective. Maybe you already know that, then okay, then I'll remind You. 😉
Čau 😀✋🏾, have a wonderful life!🥂👏🏾
What a good job you’ve done in your flat already Suzi, and it is such a vibrant area too. Don’t worry about the make up, you look fab! Loved your birthday present from Amanda ❤
yes, empty rooms look smaller. Thus the staging businesses to show everyone what can be done. You will have plenty of space! Perfect to let go of things you have reevaluated and make room for the newness of you.
So happy for you. I think rooms do look small without furniture in them. That may be why realtors stage homes with some furniture in them. Once you put things on the walls too will really help.
Suzi, your new flat looks wonderful, it’s so bright and sunny and well done with unpacking your 50 boxes so quickly! I live in Canada, so we have very wide open space and owning a car is important. However, I really understand your want and need to live in a walkable community; when we sold our very big house (which was crazy because there is only the two of us now, our children are grown and living in their own houses), we both said that the most important thing for us is to live in a walkable community. So although we still own a car, we primarily walk everywhere. We’ve brought a condo in a community that has everything within walking distance - grocery stores, dry cleaners, restaurants, coffee shops, wine shops, etc. It was the best decision we made, we are much healthier for walking so much and we are better for the environment. We only use our car when we visit the kids or have to leave our community for doctor’s appointments, etc.
Edited to add that I have your book, “Alternative Aging” and highly recommend your viewers buy it, it is full of so much great information. Also, I just loved your follower, Pam’s lovely hair style (she’s one of your followers that was at the Circles party).
Thank you so much, so glad you like. I unpacked really fast so I could hide everything away in the plentiful storage - it’s a real mess behind the closed doors but plenty of time for a tidy up! Your move sounds just like mine, so happy to hear what better lives we can all have as we get older! I use Uber if I need a car, still much cheaper than running and paying for a car. And we have free buses with an excellent service. But I am still walking everywhere unless really tired and late. It’s changed my life and I’m sure it has yours too. What took us so long! Suzi x
Oooh, thank you so much much, glad you like it. I’ll tell Pam if I see her again. x
Wonderful to see you so happy in your new nest. What a wonderful flat with a wonderful location. ❤😊
Wow Suzi, you have accomplished so much. Thanks for sharing and the lovely views on the waterfront and town and with friends.
I’m sure still missing my Drake, choc lab. 3 weeks already. I have decorated for Christmas and doing ok. Getting a new washer and dryer delivered tomorrow. Hope that goes well. Enjoy your new home. It’s lovely and I like your recording room with the brightness. Take care and pray all goes well with these tests you have coming up and 2nd opinion etc.
so wonderful to watch the reopening of Notre Dame yesterday. What a great sound to hear the bells and see the cathedral open again! 😊❤🇺🇸🐾🌲🦌🦀💝
Wishing you every happiness in your lovely new home 😊
The West Pier is so sad. I went to school in Hove when it was intact.
There's a meditation place next door? Wow. Good for you Darling.
Love watching you, you're an inspiration.❤
Thank you so much!
Delighted for u Suzi. Ur a trooper re boxes all done & gone. Like u I’m in walking distance shops/restaurants it’s so convenient. Enjoy ur new home. Get sm well deserved rest. Gd luck w/health issues ☘️ By the way everything gets larger as we age🤣🤣😛
Wishing you a long, happy, and healthy in your new home!
Those eating bubbles are really interesting!!
The duck pond painting is so special for you🥰
Hope you’ll be very happy in your new flat. It is gorgeous and with your touches it will be even better. I love it ❤
glad your enjoying your new flat can't wait to see it all finished ❤🎉
Oh I’m so happy for you Susie, you even sound wonderful! 🇨🇦🎄👏
Suzi hope you will be very happy in your new apartment - it looks lovely❤
Just as you were showing the arches you passed a green plant sculpture of Jack, just before you said they were expensive at about 7.07.
I’ve always said that places look bigger when there is furniture in it, you would think it would be the other way around 🤔. Glad you are so happy with your new flat, no rush to get it all sorted lively that you are within walking distance of everywhere and the beach. 😊
What a vibrant place to live , you will never be stuck for things to do Suzie & loads of opportunities to meet new people . Your back where you belong 😊
Suzi, I'm so thrilled for you. The light in your flat is gorgeous and you can walk to so much. I love it. You are glowing!
Thank you so much!
Well done you, good luck and happy vibes in your new home, looking forward to seeing how you turn it around in your style ❤️
Sooo pleased Suzi that you are in your new home. You have done so well emptying all those boxes!! you put me to shame and I’m only 61 !! I LOVE the new sofas 🤍 Look forward to hearing how you get on with yoga in the church and the meditation. Take care lovely and have a great week ❤️😘
Well done you for unpacking all your boxes that’s amazing. Looking forward to the new kitchen. You look fab no makeup needed ❤
What do you think about moving some of the storage in hallway to your dressing room? One of your followers mentioned opening up kitchen and I agree. 😊Take the wall down and open it up to dining room
Congratulations on your lovely new flat! And having already emptied every box! 🎉
Fab to see you in your new flat.many happy times to come ❤
I just found your channel and you’re absolutely lovely!
Hiya Suzie, I am a new subscriber to your channel, i have watched 4 or 5 of your vlogs so far and have thoroughly enjoyed every single one of them. I think you are amazing. I am the same age as you (75) but in my head i am still about 17. I love your clothes style, my style is much the same. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us , brightening people's day and for your advice, health tips, makeup tips etc. etc. I love seeing all your clothes and also what your friends are wearing. Please keep doing what you do (if you can). P.s. I think your friend Dalia (not sure if i've spelt her name right) is very cute.
Lovely to see your new apartment Suzi. I think it will look fab when you have put your stamp on it. It is really nice to see you are happy with it as it doesn't always turn out that way ❤
