For the last nine months I've been living in Seven Sister (North-East London) with some family members of mine. It got to a point that because of my job that if I lost my last train home it would probably take me like 2 hours to go home by bus, maybe two or three of them even and I didn't fancy that. So afters looking for a place for a few months I finally found a bedroom. I'm now living in the South and the good thing about this area is that if I do miss the train, I have a bus that go straight to my area. It has been a week since I've moved in and most of the unpacking is done. Things have been slow due to a lack of free time, so I do things bit by bit. But so far I'm enjoying living there, let's see when the rest of the house mates move in, it will still be fun.

Dream House #18
EN: Now that I finally have a job and I already spent some money buying essentials that I needed the next step is to start gathering money so that I can rent my own bedroom.
Now in case you don't know, London is a massive city and there are good areas and bad areas. Where I currently live has a bit of a bad reputation and the only reason that I'm here and feel "kinda safe" is because I'm living with some family members of mine other than that I don't think I would be living here unless I had no choice. Which brings me to the next part, since there are good and bad areas, of course the good areas are going to be more expensive, so I want to try and find a good size bedroom, in a decent area not to far away from the city center, at a affordable price, is that to much to ask? It actually kinda of is haha.
Because unless you earn a lot of money and you want to live let's say till zone 3 (London is divided by zones) plus the requirements that I stated before it can be very hard. So I either ended up living in a good area, inside zone 3, pay less for public transports and have a shitty room OR I live far away from the city center, have a good room but then pay a lot for the public transports -_- aaahhhh dilemmas dilemmas!
So the search begins!

Dream House #17
EN: Here in London I'm living with some family members of mine and since I arrived back in September they had some problems with the lights in the big bathroom. Basically the upstairs neighbor had some water pipes problems and it ended damaging the ceiling, the walls and the lights of my family's house :/. So for a month and a half I've been taking a shower with candle lights but my family have been dealing with this since August.
This week the man FINALLY came to fix the lights and guys I kid you not, I was so used to taking a shower with candles that when I finally turned on the lights it was mind blowing haha.
I think the best solution would be to have windows in your bathroom but then again it would only be useful during the day hehe.

Dream House #16
EN: Hello Bananas.
Well to make this post was a bit of a hassle. For some reason when I add the links of the pictures on Blogger the picture didn't upload. So I literally I had to upload one picture, close the page and then upload again, again and again etc... *sigh*.
Anyways here are some pictures of some awesome kitchens.
Oh and thank you so much for your feedback on my previous post about my D.I.Y. project :).
See you tomorrow.

Dream House #15
EN: Since Pinterest has a new layout design at the moment I'm not able to share pictures from there. None of the links work on my Blog. I had this problem before but them I went back to the old format but since is inevitable to avoid change, now I'm stuck. So I'll be collecting my picture from Tumblr 'till figure out how to work with Pinterest. And the thing that annoys me the most is that some pictures from some of my older posts like Dream House, Things that make me go hummm or monthly inspiration don't show up -_- rsrsrs.
If you know how to embed pictures from Pinterest (from the new layout design) to Blogger PLEASE let me know.
Anyways today's pictures are of living rooms and place where I've been spending a lot of times these days watching TV series after series.

EN: Hello Bananas! When I normally do these kind of posts I collect my pictures from Pinterest and Tumblr but I was checking some older posts of mine and I noticed that the pictures are not appearing, meaning I have to re-edit the posts and "refresh" the embed codes of the pictures. God Pinterest I thought you were suppose to be perfect!
Anyway enjoy some beautiful house pictures (if they still are showing, if not please let me know) that I like.

Dream House #13
EN: Today I was doing some bedroom cleaning and I had to step outside twice, one two throw out some garbage and another to pick something I that I dropped out of my window and all this story to tell you that it was kinda of hot over here and immediately made me wish I had a swimming pool right outside.
Is it too soon to say that Summer has arrived to Portugal?
PT: Hoje estive a fazer algumas limpezas e arrumações no meu quarto e tive de sair de casa duas vezes, uma para ir deitar o lixo e outra para ir apanhar uma vassourinha que eu tinha deixado cair da minha janela e posso dizer que estava calor e imediatamente fez-me desejar por uma piscina aqui mesmo ao lado do meu prédio. Eu sei que existe pelo menos um prédio aqui na minha terriola que tem uma piscina para os moradores... aaahhh sortudos! Ainda cheguei a ir lá, quando uma amiga da minha mãe vivia por lá.
Será cedo de mais para dizer que o Verão já chegou a Portugal?

Haul | Collective Winter Haul
EN: Hello Bananas. There is not much to say because the video above says it all :D. But basically I finally filmed a new video and it was a Collective Winter Haul, things that I bought and received from the last 4 to 5 months (if not more).
In the video you can already see my new Ray Ban glasses :3. What do you think about them?
Hope you enjoy it. Don't forget to subscribe to my channel if you haven't already :D.

PT: Olá Bananas. Não há muito para contar porque está tudo explicado no vídeo em cima :D. Mas basicamente, finalmente consegui filmar um novo vídeo e foi sobre as minhas compras durante o Inverno, coisas que comprei e recebi nos últimos 4 a 5 meses (se não mais).
No vídeo já podem ver os meus novos óculos da Ray Ban :3. O que acham deles?
Espero que gostem. E não se esqueçam de subscrever no meu canal caso já não tenham feito isso :D.

Dream House #10
EN: Hello Bananas! Today's Dream House post is about living rooms. My perfect living room would be big and spacious, would have big windows because I love natural lighting and comfy sofas.
PT: Olá Bananas! O post de hoje da minha Casa dos Sonhos é sobre salas. Para mim a sala perfeita seria grande e espaçosa, com janelas grandes porque eu adoro aproveitar o máximo da luz natural e teria sofás bem confortáveis, daqueles que nem apetece sair de lá.

Dream House #8
EN: Aaaaaahhh how good is to dream, huh? Honestly if money was no object I don't know if I would buy one in the city or at the country more suburbia areas. Even though I grew up in a small peaceful town I love the city. But then again if I was rich.... I would probably have more than house haha.
What do you guys prefer?
PT: Aaaaaahhh como é bom sonhar, hein? Sinceramente se dinheiro não fosse problema eu não sei se compraria uma casa na cidade ou no campo. Embora eu tenha crescido numa vila pequena meio campónia e pacata eu adoro a cidade. Mas também se eu fosse rica... provavelmente compraria mais do que uma casa haha.
O que é que vocês preferem?
I do not own the Copyrights of these pictures. There were found at Pinterest.

Dream House #7
Hello everyone. If I could build/design my dream house I would make an area big enough so that I could received my friends and family, so that we don't have to sit in the living room or in the kitchen, at least that's what ends up happening with my family.

Dream House #6
EN: Hello everyone! Now, I'm not the greatest cook but for some reason I always wanted a big kitchen. Maybe because that is also my mother's dream, to have a house with a big massive kitchen or is just simply the fact that I have a big family and when everybody gets together it's chaotic so I would love to have as much space as possible for family's get-togethers meals.
PT: Olá a todos! Eu não sou das maiores e melhores cozinheiras mas por alguma razão eu sempre quiz uma cozinha grande. Talvez porque também sempre foi o sonho da minha mãe ou simplesmente é pelo facto de que eu tenho uma grande família e quando o pessoal se junta é o caos, por isso eu adoraria ter o máximo de espaço possível para as refeições em família.

Dream House #5
"Office spaces are very wonderful for the office spaces", silly joke that only very few people will know where it's from :P.
Sooo yeah today Dream House post is about Office Rooms. I can not tell you how ttiiired I am of my computer desk. Is 11 years old, it's in cherry wood and it doesn't go with the rest of the whiteness of my bedroom!
When I moved in to this apartment with my parents, in my bedroom I had two things in white (bed and wardrobe) and two things in cherry wood (a bookcase and my desk). Years have passed and now my bedroom has more white furniture and the only thing "ruining" my bedroom is my desk!
Now what I really wish is that we had an extra room in our house just for an office. I really wish one day if I manage to have my own house that I can have a room just for the office, I no longer fancy the idea of having a desk in a bedroom. I want to have a bedroom just to sleep (and what not) and a office so that I could do my work at, get it? The two together just screams messy because I have so much stuff! BAH!

EN: OH wow it has been a while since I done one of these posts! I tell you Pinterest is addicting and one of my favourite personal folders/boards is the Home Sweet Home one. I loooove collecting house pictures. Today's pictures will focus mainly on swimming pools .
PT: EHNA já à algum tempo que não fazia um post destes! Digo-vos o Pinterest é viciante e uma das minhas pastas/quadros pessoais preferidos é o Home Sweet Home - Lar Doce Lar. Eu adoooooro coleccionar fotos de casas. Hoje o post é focado nas piscinas.

House stuff #1
These are a few things I bought for the last 3 months since I arrived to London. Has you might know, I am living with some family members here in London so it means that I have a full furnished room and don't need to buy much stuff. But... knowing myself like I do, I had to buy a few little things for the room that I needed. So let's start!

Dream House #3
Last week I woke up one day with the idea "That's it! I want my bedroom Black and White! MUAHAHAHAHA". Me bedroom has always been a mix - and not the good kind - of white furniture and "cherry" wood as they call it. It started when we moved in to this flat, we had already had a wardrobe, big and white, then my parents bought me a new bed also in white, and then we had let's call it a home made "bookcase" that was painted in white. A few years later my mom bought my first computer, so we bought a desk, we couldn't find a white one that had all the things that I need it, so we end up buying one in the colour cherry wood, then the "bookcase" became too small, so we bought a new one also in cherry wood. Then came the curtains.... a few years back I was having this Holland phase, I was into Kane - a Dutch rock band - and the Dutch football team , so those are the colours of my curtains, one orange in the middle and two dark blue ones on each side aaaaannd now I'M tired of them -_-.
In the mean time I had other changes in my bedroom and now most of the furniture is white, but I still have the cherry wood desk. So I shared the black and white idea with my mom, and first she was like "OI?", we talked, and then she suggested like a Japanese inspired room - still with the black and white - and I was like "RIGHT ON MOM!".
Below you will see some pictures that I collected from Google. The first set is Japanese inspired. Now the thing with Japanese bedroom - and attention I'm no expert - they seem to be very minimalistic and basic, like the main purpose of a bedroom is to? Sleep. And what do I need in order to sleep? A bed. And that´s it... well not necessarily, but you get the idea. I can't not transform completely my bedroom, but two things that will be changed hopefully in the future, will be my bed, change the couples bed, that takes so much space, in to one of those body and a half beds, with a drawer underneath with another bed in case someone comes over, aaaand my desk. And since I have STUFF (lol) I can not have my bedroom just with my bed in it.

Dream House #1
Lately (maybe due to the fact that I'm home alone at the moment), I've been dreaming about my dream house, if I ever will be able to have my own place, and how would I decorate it? I like a dozen of styles at the same time, and not all of them go together. I like simple modern style, wooden houses, Victorian, Japanese, Indian, Latin American, African inspired uuuffff ... which one to pick?
From now on, every now and then I will post (if you don't mind :p) a few random pics of houses and room devisions that I like.
Hope you enjoy it.

Home Alone!
Yyyyyyyeeeppppp, I'm home alone! My housemate Aya left today for vacation in her home country Japan! So I'm home alone till the beggining of August. I've been home alone before, but I never lived completly alone, luckly this is not a massive house, where I go like "uh what´s that sound?", "uh, who's there?" lol. This is definitely gonna be a new experience for me. >.< In a way is pretty much the same, the big difference is that I won't have anyone to talk to (other than Skype/MSN) in the house, face to face. Oh man I have to take care of the fish -_- BAH!
