I still remember the day we went house-hunting for our first house in Bangkok - back when Sam was preparing to move to Bangkok. This place stood out among them all, not only because of the price, but because it had a closed kitchen. And you know how important that is with Chinese cooking! Here are some pictures of times in the condo and our eventual moving day. Great times, they were! :)

Great place for singing out loud - we had almost the whole floor to ourselves (paparazzi moment). |

Both of us in our usual spot watching the tv. |

Receiving our first house guest, Mel, and playing Scrabbles together. |

Our first dinner guest, Yumi, and a home-cooked meal! |

The packing begins!
It's amazing how much you can accumulate in a year!

I was box lady for a couple of days, trying to get Carrefour to part with their boxes. So we've got grape biscuits, Comfort and Carrefour giant boxes, it was a nightmare getting rid of them. |
It took us two cab trips (filled to the brim) and a pickup truck making 2 rounds to get all of our stuffs over.
Some before and after pictures:
Once everything was out of the house, it hit me how much I was going to miss this place :) It was, after all, our first home together. Nevertheless, we'll be expecting to have as much fun in our new place, as the following posts would testify. Stay tuned!
