As you requested (and as promised)

Living room collage

As I mentioned about my transfer to a new flat, most of you requested to take a glimpse. You probably already have an idea of the dining area motif. I took some snaps few days ago but I had a long time thinking if I should share the entirety. You can tell that I’m sort of privy, so I’ll give away the living room for the mean time (crosses fingers) and I’m afraid that someone’s strategically spying on me. Just kidding.

You’ll find at one corner a white jar-shaped lamp which is actually made up of paper. I decided to get a bigger book shelf since I got a number of books as Christmas presents. There’s still much room, but let’s see how it will look like after a year. Haha. I normally bring home or ship to the Philippines whatever is finished (that I’m willing to let go). In one photo, there’s the computer/study table beside the shelf leading to the door of the living room. Go straight to go to the main door. Turn first right to the kitchen, second right to the bedrooms and so on.

On the center table are decorative scented (citronella) candles and chocolate plate which is refilled regularly. Of course, you’ve already met my dramatic rattan chair (with the sheepskin). By the way, the largest photo from this collage is especially for Angeli. She asked me to take a photo of the woman meditating (painting). Each corner is a work in progress. But I guess this is more than sufficient to those who’d like a glimpse. Let me know if the wind will blow you to this part of the globe. You’ll be more than welcomed.

Have a great week ahead.

You know, for a “temporary” resident of a country, you make your stay as cozy as you can. I like your place.

Oy, may organ pa sya! Solfeggio or Ouido?

So when can we pay you a visit? Just kidding.

Nice abode. Looks cozy. And yes, like most of the comments here, masarap nga syang uwian. It has to, right? I told a friend once that we should make our place as cozy as we can because that’s our sanctuary after a day’s work.

I sense that you’re a Godly person, Jo.
