    by the way, as a greek, even 700 would be too high. Keep in mind that the basic salary here is around 600€ at best. But alas , i LOVE LOVE LOVE all the plant babies, youve made the place beautiful.

      @@frogg7796 yes! I know. Crazy really. But it is what it is and we are here now, when it was raised it would have cost more to move and find somewhere as good for less.. thank you very much ❤️

    This is my first time running across your UA-cam channel. I’m an American, and honestly, when you said you live in Athens…Greece obviously, my mind processed Athens, Georgia here in the states. 😂. I like your artwork, the PLANTSSS, your “not a Smeg” fridge, the awesome balcony and view. Just splendid!

    Great stuff - I'm from Athens as well. It's great we have people like you around. Love the furniture, the old ones are also a lot better than IKEA stuff. I would also suggest Vendora for second hand furniture (a lot less scam going on there). Nothing beats the second hand market in the UK though, this is a mentality all Europe should focus on building. Keep it up!

    Thank you for sharing your apartment tour! :) I think we pretty much have the exact same style :D I understand why you don't love the dining room and I was wondering if it might be because of the amount of glass. 2 glass doors, one big window/balcony door surrounding the glass table. Maybe a wooden table would do the job and you could maybe change the room into an actual office that you can sometimes change into a dining room if you have guests over. Or do you use it to eat there on a daily basis? I also love reading about feng shui tips, don't take it too seriously but often find it inspiring ;) Best wishes from Germany. Used to work in the Athens City Circus Ho(s)tel, which is a very nice place to visit! ;)

    • @isabelgeorginataylor
      @isabelgeorginataylor  6 місяців тому +1

      Yeah it's a bit of a tricky space... we use it for both almost equally, so it needs to be set up for both. Definitely a more sturdy table, I was thinking steel? As the wooden floors might then be too much with wood. A rug for sure although I assume I'd then be cleaning it every day 😂 good points tho, thank you!!

      @@isabelgeorginataylor True, it would be a lot of wood then. There's a desk/table by Egon Eiermann, that has a steel frame and a linoleum tabletop. It is actually really nice to work at because it's kind of soft. Expensive though, but you seem good at finding affordable stuff ;)
