moving to the city



in the next month i will be moving out of home with my boyfriend and away from my family to the city to start university soon after that. there are so many things about the idea that scare me; to not feel a sense of home in a house, to not be completely surrounded by nature and be by the sea, to not walk up to my mother and hug her when i feel upset or afraid, and to not be familiar with the smells around me and not be able to smell the ocean, the rainforest, the scent of home. but being strong and seeing past these haunting things, i am so excited to meet new people, to find a new second-hand bookshop, a lovely & small cafe & op shops, to absorb knowledge from not only my uni course but amazing individuals, and most appropriate to this post, to decorate our new room and make it 'home'.
the thought walking through ikea with a huge, empty trolley makes me unbelievable happy and now that i have the opportunity to buy a new bed and bedside table and sheets and lamps and desk and perhaps some other lovely things,  i'm going a little ikea crazy on their website. here are some photos that make me feel like a little girl at a birthday party that has an endless amount of candy and cute little animals,

Most of these bedrooms are nice but they have too many things going on. A room is supposed to breathe.

Maybe we can follow each other?
