Yeah I always find it such a waste to buy new things as there are plenty of good quality used things around! Sometimes the used things are even better quality as old furniture is often solid wood and not Ikea put together pressed mdf. Though some of the solid wood pieces were a bit of a challenge to move Hahaha.
Will definitely post some more on the new environment! Get the bikes out and start exploring soon and hopefully go to the cheesecake here soon, they still have a traditional Dutch cheesemarket with whole wheels of cheese!
