A Tour of Our NYC Apartment: Dining Area + Living Room
Travis and I finally feel settled in our new home, and today I’m so excited to give you a (virtual) tour of our NYC apartment. We moved to New York City from Santa Monica, CA at the end of October, but as you may remember, it took over one month for us to receive our belongings from the cross-country movers. By the time we unpacked and found the right pieces of furniture for our new apartment, it was already the middle of the holiday season. We hosted a housewarming party at the beginning of January, during which many of my friends urged me to write a post about our apartment. I was flattered because, to be honest, I never considered myself much of an interior decorator, but I have loved putting this apartment together.
