Moving out

Moving out of Sky Garden and moving into Hoang Anh 1 today. Question : How on earth did we accumulate so much "rubbish" in one year? I've been packing the last few nights and it never seemed to end. 2 movers helped with the shift - total bill : 600,000VND for a morning's work. Washing, taking down and hanging up the curtains for the whole apartment cost 480k (32kg!). Cleaning the sofa was 240k. Cleaning the aircon (4 units x @50k) and top up gas cost 280k.

Leaving the Sky Garden unit as pristine as when we shifted in

First night at Hoang Anh 1

"Moving house" again

Almost a year is up since I first rented this apartment at Phu My Hung. Time to hunt for another - we're a bit wiser now and it's a renters' market this time round. So we finally found one 200m from Lotte Mart at Hoang Anh 1. It's nice, rental's a lot less, and just as big. What I like is that there's something for everyone - modern shopping at Lotte Mart for the kids and for us oldies, cheaper local eats and buys just out of the gate. No way we can get that in PMH, where everything is expensive. However, contract's not signed yet - so anything can happen. (Latest : Contract signed already)
