What a way to go home!

Yesterday, I dragged @daveonarrival (Did I, Dave?? lol) with me on my new journey to go check up on the house that's we have been talking about for like million times already. I even made a post 'My last update' on the house but you know, sometimes people just lied (not intentionally, of course! <3).. so here we go, another update with loads of photo

Oh! Be warned. Lots of lots of photo! Like, really!


This time is a bit more fun though as last time I went with my aunt, we found a new way to get there! My house is like 15 mins on foot away from a canal. This Klong San Saeb (canal) has boat service that would take you to places in Bangkok! It's such a long route! How fun!!!

The whole boat ride from the beginning of the route (Phan Fah pier) to here (Wat Klang pier) took pretty much 1 hour. Whoa! Yes,I know!!! It's kinda long but sure fun as we gotta see all the local areas we don't normally see.

Then either take a motorbike taxi or walk to get to this very blue 4.5 story house. I kinda got used to the color. I used to don't like (hate) it..

This time, seriously, it's like 98% done. Just all these small spots that need some touch-ups.. Like, small stains, the windows couldn't be closed and uneven color.. like, this one! Our wall was really two-toned!

We're keeping the small Chinese shrine on the first floor right there as it's our culture believing that it would bring luck and protect the house and people..

Now I will be showing you every corner, like, if you're a theif, my house would be robbed easily lol


1st floor kitchen & bathroom

Some of you may find this weird but the kitchen is literally in front of the bathroom :D I have talked against but seems like my aunt won :/

Details

I was literally just trying to take photos of all the corners so I could see if there's something wrong or should be fixed (in case I missed it - it's just an ocd kinda thing)

The bath room on the 3rd floor

The house surprisingly got just 2 bathrooms out of the entire building.. One this floor is much more spacious!

Roof top

On the 1st floor, we got the Chinese shrine. On the top floor, we got 2 more Thai style small temples. We have invited someone (who knows how to take this kind of things off peacefully) to come and try to take them off. Then, we've been told to keep both like this still as they would bring luck, wealth and all.

.. Some of you just laughed.. :/

I'm happy with the whole things in general so far but we actually have some problems with one of the contractor.. Finger crossed with what would happen next.

I have actually been thinking of what I would do and how it would be started.. It's really almost the time. I'm freaking out and too excited. A lot of people already told me to start small, like really small.

Not sure about anything else but hey, there will be white tables!

I DO USE. I DO LOVE ! ❤

At first at the beginning, you was said in text that you're going to look at your home... I was look first 3 photos...and I was think ... wow you have lot friends and they all come also this can be very interesting.... but what more I was read I was see it was just Taxi :))) .... Think if this all have come also and look your home :)) first day you had maid big party :))) And you can say all coffee sold out :)))

And cool home you have ... and you not have cold winter there ... here morning and very gold -9 :)))


hahhaha love it that you remember that lame joke by @travelling-two ... haha not so lame actually. Cool joke! :D Thanks for checking this out. I'm so excited to my moving in so soon!

And this roof is very cool, you see the whole city :)

Loading...

i like that you decided to go with the external circular pvc conduits for all the wiring. This sort of "industrial" look is quite popular now and looks great with the polished cement. In the past I had a bar and we instead decided to go with one of those false ceilings to hide all the electrical / internet wiring and it just ended up looking terrible and of course that is where the rats go to live too.

I think it looks good so far and the blue color, if you are going to have a business there, is only going to make it easier to spot, so even if you dont' like it, it will serve a real purpose.

Oh you had a bar before!!!! That's exciting! - If there's a rat running around, I wouldn't be so ok :/ I think it looks good as well and the blue is not the problem no more. My mind has adjusted :D Oh!

it will serve a real purpose

Agree with that! :D Some even say that blue makes people wanna spend money more.

the bar was in Krabi. It was too hot and I ended up drinking more than 10 beers every day. This was bad... but a lot of fun for 5 years or so.. 555

Wow, it's looking good Mo. I love the blue haha. There's more light in there than I expected. Look at Dave haha.

Cool, I'm so ok with the colour now. No, not that bright inside on the first floor. I adjust the brightness on all the photos lol Look at him why? Like, you said earlier you had a crush on ?? O.o

:)

ooo!!! wow it's almost done isn't it?
are we gonna get invited there!?? hahaha
I'm just kidding! :D

Yeah, I think it's so close!

Blue is a very beautiful color. I see it in the kitchen and it's very good!

That's why your moon is blue??!? :D Thanks for checking this out and yeah, I started to get used to the color :)

Yes, thank you for your question. For me it is the favorite color and I think you will like it when everything is ready. I wish you a beautiful life in the new apartment.

Hahaha thanks a lot! :)

With pleasure!

Hahahhahaha lololol Dom chicka dom dom dom. I should have that as the song on my epic house opening. You sing!

You want me to make a video and sing that song?

Water taxi looks fun, who cares if it was long hey 😜

Oh! Yeah, that's what I have been calling it every time! :D MEZZANINE! First few times with water taxi could be fun but a lot more time, I'm not sure how people would feel :/ Come soon!

Nailed it!

Yeah I can imagine that after a while it would get a little boring, here’s an idea, every time you go on it try and film a short movie or the such like before you get off 😜😜
