Julian you’re famous in Cape Town my beautiful son. Praying you find what you’re looking for.

For the price I would suggest you take it. You can always get a big rug to cover the carpet. and then you can look for what you really want knowing you are not paying too much where you live so you won't be pressured to rush your decision

Nice place Julian.price point security sounds great. While looking try to look at 2 or 3 in 1 day. You know they always want an answer by the day of or next...RUSH 😌 good luck.

Just be warned of the noise from the drummers and dancers downstairs on Saturday mornings. It's hectic! It's a lovely location but for me it was very depressing living in a dark apartment with no terrace.

I loved the building.

R14,500 rands? its a swedish price = around 8500 swedish kr, so South Africa is not cheap anymore. Probably better to buy, its cute little apartment. Im not sure if I would take it because its small and not much free space. Thank you for taking us along.

Cape Town rent is the highest in South Africa. You need too be making very high salaries to afford rents, especially in certain areas like the City Bowl, Green Point and Sea Point. Possibly look at areas like Woodstock or Observatory, still close to the city yet more affordable. Love you videos. Making me miss Cape Town.

The carpet looks a little funky, but it's a nice and secure place at a good price! Hesitation means you should not do it!

you are glowing in Cape Town x

keep looking and take your time

Keep looking you might have to find something outside of Cape Town. Since so many people want to live there it might be hard to find the perfect luxury apartment within your price range.

I saw comment which I like. If it is 70 % of your wants and 100% of need then move forward. You can put down strategic rugs to cover carpet. You need to reduce costs ASAP and get a better feel of CT.

I would go with furnished if possible but would make sure I get seal bedding just in case plus do a complete wall and ceiling cleaning with deep carpet cleaning. I would burn sage to get out any negative spiritual energy. I would do this any place I would permanently move to.

I live in Cape Town. Cape Town is very much a segregated city. The white governers of Cape Town have kept it that way on purpose. It's cleaner and quiet where the wealthy white folks reside and the popular tourist spots, because the city ensures that. Black neighborhoods have been left to rot. To give you an example, the black parts of the city flooded a few days ago, because the city does not care that the drainage system is maintained in these communities. It's not their priority.

I hate brown/green carpets in my house......they are a no no. Brighter makes my day.

It's just okay frien. I think you should keep looking around. You like the finer things in life and that ain't it! You didn't leave the U.S. to settle. That carpet was disgusting, the natural light was a bust and that shower floor was grotesque. Absolutely not! You would cringe putting your feet on that tile and deep down you know it. Anywho, I never comment but I had to. Love your channel and have been watching your journey since the beginning. 🤎🥰 You've definitely inspired a lot of Americans to visit SA bc of your vlogs. 🤎🤎🤎

The background looks familiar to Miami

The shower floor and carpet not okay. I did not feel it Julian 🥰🥰

If they can replace the carpet take the apartment. The bathroom is not so nice either but you are not there to live forever. You can get cheaper places but then you will have to pay a lot of money in uber to get in and out. Or you will have to take them white minibuses with the crazy drivers.

Keep looking, it was too small for long term comfort

Oh can't believe u were in my block lol I will urge u to take how much is it

Cape town is Really expensive keep searching

Hi Julian, I am curious about something 😅 I seem to remember some time ago you said that you don’t cook, but I noticed that twice during this viewing you mentioned the importance of the kitchen for you. Please don’t think I am knocking that, one of the most important things for me is ALWAYS the kitchen. Like you, I left home as a “non-cook” but, after living in the UK for a while and craving some of the food my mom used to make, she was Jamaican/American, I started dabbling in the kitchen and because of my formulation science career, I quickly became quite good at cooking. Anyway, what I am curious about is, so, have you now started dabbling in the kitchen and have you learned how to cook ? Don’t “settle for a place” that is not really what you want. Perhaps you could try to find an interim Airbnb or short term apartment which hopefully might be cheaper than your current situation, while you continue your search. As always, I wish you all the best. 💕
