I used to love living by myself. I could be as social as I wanted but being able to come back home and decompress was invaluable. If I was lonely, all I had to do was call my friends or take a walk. You’ll love it! Your apartment is beautiful, a clean slate!
This is exactly what I want🥺 Thank you for putting my feelings into words haha 🥰
Amazon wish list for your new apartment
lol I just finished your apartment hunt video!! This is perfect timing!
same lol
Sameeee
Same 😭
Same
Same
When I first moved out by myself, i felt the exact same way. I missed my family so much. But at the same time it was a blessing, felt like I had space to think and organize and really just excited to be myself. Totally relatable though but you seem like you got a strong head on your shoulder! Congrats!
I'm literally so excited to see how you decorate your new space! It was pretty amazing to be able to see how the previous tenant styled and decorated for inspo. I always find it so interesting to see a blank slate apartment versus a space that someone has settled into.
For reals, the old layout was so helpful! I'm taking lots of inspo from it but also changing some stuff up...stay tuned 😉
i loved living by myself! Totally feel the same way! I'm an extroverted introvert. So I can be very social outside the house but then i've had my fill of socializing and like to come home, be alone, recharge and have the place to myself.
My exact thoughts 🥰
@@juliafei 🥰 we get it.
I love living by myself. It’s so great that I can just be myself in my own space. I don’t work from home and my family is within a two block radius in the town I live in. So it’s nice when I don’t have to cater to anyone but myself.
Ahh so exciting! Moving into a new space is always exciting, not moving the whole stuff but starting in a new space is def nice 👌🏽
A blank canvas for decorating!
My experience living alone in college has been conflicting- I don't have friends here (the 2 I had went back to their home countries, and my family lives in another continent) and since the pandemic had been going on there isn't a chance to meet new people. Its been depressingly lonely at times... but I will say having my own space is refreshing.
I graduated right before the pandemic and was also very worried about finding post-grad friends :( Hopefully things will get better and there will be more organic opportunities for us to meet more people as the world starts to heal. Rooting for us!
@@juliafei 🤗🙌🏿
Yes, i also call my mum when moving! I am actually in my moving process between Italy and England, but I will be back to Italy next summer as this is my favourite spot on the planet! I would love to spend a week or so in NY as well, I was always fascinated by that city! Great vlog Giulia! xx
Haha no matter how old you get, moms will always be there to help you 🥺 Best of luck on your move!!
Congrats on the new apartment 🤎
Thank you! 💕
OMG Pls share the whole process of vintage furniture shopping and your whole apartment decoration. 🪴🛋
Will be sharing little snippets along the way! ☺️
I had a similar experience with my mattress - doing whatever to compress it down and vac-seal it. But I got a small hole in the bag and you know how that went :/ Haha! I love watching your videos about your move. I'm thinking about moving to NYC, so it's been very helpful!
I’m so glad! 🥰
Just watched your "10 apartments" vlog. Had to jump over to your videos and find out which you choose. I loved this one!!! WOOHOO!
I love comments like these! Thank you for dropping by 🥰
I enjoyed watching your "10 apartments" also. Crazy expensive though. If one can make that salary to afford, really great!! So glad you had a quick stroke of luck Julia!!! Where I live, also pricey because it's in a very busy city. Tried to follow your IG. Dislike signing in though. Best of to you. 😊
omg, so happy I came across your channel!! I love the way you edit
Such a sweet comment, thank you😘
This whole video was so relaxing to watch 🥰🥰 when are we getting an apartment tour?
Whenever the decorating is done 😭
AHHH! I have been waiting for this video! I love your channel and your content
So sweet thank you 🥺♥️
I'm not sure about the price but I've seen a lot of people buy the desk that elevates I'm not sure how you call it lol but you can raise it for when you wanna stand and then put back down when you want to sit and it's supposed to help with your back and neck since it can be adjusted.....hope it helps 😅👉🏻👈🏻
It’s lovely having your own space. Enjoy your your new home 😊
Thank you Jane 🥰
That was so smart about the mattress. Good job.
With Ikea being out of stock on a lot of items, secondhand furniture places have really upped prices. Amazon, Overstock, Walmart, and Wayfair have become clutch. Haven't had an issue with the quality of my furniture yet, but I try to buy solid pieces with warranties 😅.
Exactly
im a huuuuge advocate for second-hand furniture shopping!!!loved how u took us with you THE PLACE WAS SO AESTHETIC - hope u find some pieces for you next time + if u do, please feature them in ur next hihi
Sadly didn’t get anything from those stores that I visited but am continuing the search for some second hand furniture! 🤞
watching these videos because moving to ny has been heavy on my mind for years and is something that i would really like to pursue. watched the hunting video and congratulations on your new place !
Thank you so much! Hoping that one day you’ll find yourself here in ny :)
Aloha!
Your apartment search video popped up on my feed, so I thought I'd check out what apt. hunting is like in NYC.
It's so expensive!
I thought Hawai'i had high prices, but they don't compared to NYC.
I'm so happy for you that you FINALLY found a nice Place.
You seem like an intelligent young lady so I decided to subscribe to see how it goes for you.
I remember those days.
My first apartment I was only 16.
I'm 58 now and live on a Marina in east Honolulu.
A far cry from where I started out.
Anyways, this isn't about me, it's about you!
I'll get caught up on your videos to see how it's going. ( hopefully well. 🤞)
See ya soon.

I live in a studio in London and I love it, so much peace
Definitely so nice to have your own space!
Gday sweetie you’re apartment vid popped up in my side bar , it was so interesting .I can’t believe the prices ( I’m in Australia) but am very happy you found a place that makes you happy.There is nothing wrong with being alone sometime , we all need that peace .
Thank you so much for your sweet comment & for dropping by 😊 Yes the prices in NYC are quite insane sadly but I'm so glad that the apartment hunting process is over haha
Congrats on 1mil views ✨🎇
!! I didn’t even know! Thank you for pointing it out and for your support 💕
Stack up boxes as a temporary desk!
lmfao the mattress said NOPE
HAHAH basically 😂😭
You should put a narrow desk in the nook where you're books are under the window
Go to housing works on 17th Street. Go to Lot Less for everything else. From sheets to towels and cookware.You're welcome.
Such a relaxing video, videos like this always get me excited to create!
Hehe thanks for dropping by!
I just found your channel the other day and I love it!
Thank you for watching! ♥️
So excited for you ☺️✨
Excited to share the journey along the way!! 🥰
Oh gosh on 2:34 that building w/ pi sign is perfect ✨
I loved having my own apartment when I was in my thirties and unmarried. Good luck to you in the new year!
I love living by myself.
You can do this and congratulations on your apartment.
Just came across the apartment hunting video, definitely obsessed with your content after 20mins of watching lol
Use 2 boxes or 1 upside down as a desk.
I LOVE LIVING alone! :D Although I am married now and love that too, but living alone you can do just about whatever you want. Witch I pretty much still do, because my husband is awesome and chill and know that I need my space :P
Personal space is so so important! Happy you found a partner that allows you to do your own thing!
The first pumpkin spice latte of the season just hits different
100%
Love it , congrats on the new apartment 😎, can’t wait to see the toor apartment soon
Excited to show y’all the entire decorating process!
Not sure if I missed this in the video but what made you go for used furniture vs new? If you don't find anything used that you like, will you eventually get new or just keep looking? Did you have a budget for furnishing your apartment? Do you plan on essentially getting everything all at once or just slowly acquire items? Looking forward to seeing your apartment journey.
I think as a young person, buying gently used furniture is smart. I bought new and after I paid for it on credit i was ready for a change. My next and future purchases will be gently and well cared for used furniture.
The biggest factor for buying used is definitely because it’s much more wallet friendly! And there are so many well maintained things that you can find too. I’m taking furniture shopping slow and am open to buying both new and used things ☺️
came from your apartment hunt video hahahahaha.. i like the content and not even living in America! Krazy me. 😂😂
Just found your channel and got so excited when I saw code on your laptop! Software dev here. 👋🏼 love your channel!
Sis don’t sleep on fb market place abd thrift shops for furniture! Love the new space
Yes!! I got my couch from fb market place!
Glad you finally got some furniture!! Loool
Come visit soon so you can see how much it's changed!!
OMGGG YOU ARE GLOWING!
🥰
Can you show us how did you organized your tiny kitchen, because my is so small that I can’t be inspired to find the right places for everything. Thanks in advance 🇨🇦♥️😘
You have no idea how easy you kids have it these days. We were lucky to find clean apartments 40/50 yrs ago. I painted many a place just to get it before the landlord had to clean it....mostly always got it for cleaning and or painting. Of course the rent still sounds astronomical these days.
For the first time I've heard that a vlogger is extrovert 😀
While every other vlogger is partying and meeting friends and call themselves introvert
love your videos
I’m just now getting use to living with someone lol, I moved out of state alone for a job and lived alone for about 4 years. Definitely enjoyed alone times but yea know life haha 😂
Hi just discovered your channel! Loving it! and hellow from Texas! Also do you do programming?
You are living my dream! :D
You should do voice overs so we don’t have to look down to read, love your videos!
Unrelated but you’re super pretty!!
8:45 flashing lights warning.
Congrats on the apartment!
Hey what is that plastic cover over the mattress that you vacuum sealed called?
just came from the apartment hunting video, congrats!❤️
Thank you!!
I love your music choice. What would you call it if you were looking for a playlist?
are you viet?? when your aunt and mom came in haha this is so cute!! new sub :)
I’m half! Happy to see that you picked up that small bit of Vietnamese that I hid in there hehe
Ezoo shots fired 😂
Always love your videos
🙏🙏🙏
From the apartment hunt video to here
Should have negotiated with previous tenant for that room divider. Love ikea, we have one few miles away in NewHaven CT
Great idea! They really did have it all set up great
I love the Ikea in New Haven!!
I am not good at English. Can you tell me where this apartment is? or apartment name? I really like it and I have plans to go to New York next year. Thank you
Wait I thought your family was in upstate NY but you showed your old place in Queens hehe I confuseddd
Yes my fam does live in upstate NY! But I was subletting a friend's place in Queens during the summer so I had to move out of my sublet as well 😓
aww do you speak viet with your mom? i’m so excited for you!!
Haha yes with my broken Vietnamese 😅 thanks for watching tiffany!
hi julia! i have a question for you. in this video we could see a lot of people on the event you were attending. i assume if you guys were vaccinated, then you're able to take off your mask??
More shopping pls💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻
Say less!! I'm lowkey a shopaholic haha
@@juliafei 😂💕
So awesome 😊
Where did you get the bag for your bed?
Oh my gosh I saw my 1980s dresser and mirror 😁😆
Vintage is in these days haha 😂
Hello, I’m new here. Where did you live previously before you signed your NY apartment?
Hi Mariah, welcome! I've always lived in NYC but moved home to upstate New York for a bit during the pandemic!
Love your glasses, where are they from😍
hi i am new from canada, good job moving. your awesome.....
Welcome Denise! Thank you for watching 😊
I used to say "basic bitch" about some stuff but there's a REASON why so many ppl love something. It's actually good and well done! And we don't say "basic bitch" about the generic things that mehn like, do we? Seems like we are conditioned to diss on nice feminine things that women enjoy
Please can anyone tell me what this lamp is called at 10:00 🙏🏻🙏🏻 I’ve seen them everywhere on Pinterest but can’t find them online
They're called murano glass mushroom lamps 🍄
What do you do for a living to afford living in nyc. Just curious
I heard some Vietnamese in there subbing
Yes 😌
Do you have parking in the building? Otherwise isn't that a problem in NYC? I grew up in Riverdale in the Bronx.
No parking :( but thankfully I don't drive in the city!
If you don’t mind me asking, what do you work as? I’m a high school student trying to figure out what to do with my life 🥲
I'm a data scientist!
Try flea markets.
I don't even pay $1000/month for a 2400 sqft house. And that includes insurance and property taxes.
I will stay far away from NYC for sure.
Buy a pouf to sit on. Those are small
0:57 🤣🤣🤣
Screenshotting & framing it haha
Weekly videos?
Tip: better to do a voice over than words in my opinion. Alot of people, like me, play TH-cam as they're doing other things, and its hard to not possible to read all the comments. I like your content though!
Thank you for the feedback!!
Don't store tomatoes in the fridge!
The only thing that's missing is a bed frame LOL
I actually don’t know if I’ll ever get one…🙃
What a beautiful young lady you are!
if you need personal
time and space to rejuvenate, you're probably not an extrovert but an introvert. you could just be a social introvert
Actually I do think the pandemic made me a bit more introverted!
I don't want to be 'that' girl, but driving in a car that has the back view blocked is dangerous (and can get you a ticket) ! Please make two trips or something but please leave some room so that your rear view mirror can view what's happening!
Aww thank you for your caring comment! We made sure to drive extremely slow but yes yes noted for next time 💕

I thought My house was small but is at least 3 times the size of this with a front and back garden a shed and a yard bit it's location is middle of nowhere... I only pay €140 per month 😱❤️❤️
Yea NYC rent prices are really out of this world! Your place sounds so spacious!
@@juliafei I know your paying for location but I just couldn't do it, I live in rural Ireland and I'm really lucky with my house and rent even the cities here now are gone up to crazy prices like Newyork but the apartment you got is nice and I hope you enjoy being there ❤️
What do you do for work?
