I've Moved!
Posted by: Ralph van den Berg (29 April, 2008)
Last time I announced that I've moved was from my old domain to RalphvandenBerg.com. It was quite a bit of work, creating a new website, keeping the old style, but secretly revamping the whole thing.
This time I've really moved in real life. I'm out of my tiny apartment and into a 2 bedroom house. I'm not sure yet what I'm going to do with all the space; I've got so much of it! At least now I can receive guests without them being in my bedroom.
When I get settled in I'll have a little house warming party, but for now I need to scrounge up some furniture. Chairs for example... I've never had the need for those in my apartment because the bed took up most of the room!
There are many other things I need to get done. I don't have internet yet, yesterday, when I started moving my stuff there wasn't even electricity yet. I hope that part can be fixed soon. It's kind of funny; this is the first time I've really moved since 1990-something when I came to Thailand. The move into the apartment I just came from was very gradual, and doesn't feel like a real "move".
There are a couple of things I'm going to miss about my old apartment: the little shop downstairs that sold me beer and was so nice, the guard who was always so helpful, and the general coziness of a small room full of stuff.

Posted on 2 May, 2008It've spent 2 nights at my new place already. It's getting better every day, putting more stuff in, cleaning it up more. All little bits and pieces that make it more homey!
