Flat 10: Part 1 - the kitchen/living -ish space


our front door, at the tippy top of the Main House at Tyndale

the breakfast/every meal nook

the living space; note the kitting basket and radiator, very British

the kitchen

this may seem small to the American mind, but in fact it's massive compared with our kitchen in Wheaton

Spoiler alert: Our apartment was furnished.
So, while it took a few days to get over the hodge podge of quaint low ceilings and old charm mixed with modern furniture and leather lamps, I am so thankful to have started with something. In this phase of life I pray that I would be truly refined to see what's essential as far less than before. I also hope that this sense of simplicity will follow me here onward, wherever we end up next.

  2. I just finished reading a book called Almost Amish. It's about choosing simplicity in all areas of your life. You'd love it! And it's an easy, interesting and inspiring read. Your place looks great! I send a link of your blog to Karla and Joel Willitts who lived in your flat when we were there. She loved seeing it! Thanks for posting!
