My daughter in law lives in a small house in Toronto NSW Australia that can't even fit a table and chairs and pays $550 a week. Both are single mums with two children, the rents and house prices are sky high.

I don't even make that much a month... 😅 I'm definitely more appreciative now! But your apartment is absolutely beautiful. I think the decor definitely helps brighten it up, making it feel a little bigger. I love it!

I have an Arco lamp from Barcelona Designs and I freaked out from the first moment I saw it because of its Carrara marble base. I have to get a similar rug for my new sofa. Congratulations and thanks for the tour! :)

    I'm wanting to move downtown despite the prices just because it's so nice. The rent is making me want to go to Toronto but I don't want to move away from my family and friends to a city alone. I sometimes feel like it's a waste of money because I could put that money into buying a house or retirement but views from a west end apartment or even false creek are so amazing that I'm not sure life could be better. I've moved around a bit but I think I might bite the bullet and move downtown and pay the extra amount for rent.
