So i moved places, no more boat :( Pics
 

I was forced to leave my house boat because the owner wanted it back and my contract ended so i had to go.
Found a new place across the old place where i lived before the boat. Pretty odd :)

Its smaller but damn, rent is 800 euros (1k dollars) less than the boat and its right in the center of the city (most expensive part)

I worked my ass off on it the last 2 weeks, it was total mess when i first came here. A little paint, sweat and Ikea and heres the result :)

aaaaah turntables. U got skills?

The crib looks very cozy. You must be very comfortable there!:thumbsup

looks ok man!............

Hehe yes when im drunk.

Thanks, feel free to drop by anytime.

Crazy how different it looks since I was there.

Yup, the place was totally unliveable when you saw it.

looks like a very nice place :thumbsup

Damn that sucks, the boat was great!

Anyway congrats on the house!

As far as rent, is it 800 euro's CHEAPER, or 800 euro a month?

I pay 1000 euro's a month for my apartment, and it's not that special....Time to move to Spain :D

For the ppl who care www.thumbtgp.com/huis/ is what you might get for 1000 euro's(mine in this case)....That is the disadvantage of living in The Netherlands

I pay 500 now. The boat was 1300.

WTF you only pay 50% of what I pay...Damn you:thumbsup

But your terrace will be missed

Haha yes, and that while im almost on the Leidseplein hehe.

nice place :thumbsup

Someone's been to Ikea:winkwink:

hey, you're a dj? i see the turntables.

nice place!

amsterdam real estate is cheap , try to get 80+m^2 apartments for 1000$ in the center of any major american city and you'll be laughed at. Its just expensive for dutch people because y'all live on welfare.

i remember when i first got to amsterdam i was worried about the "housing shortage" i heard so much about, yeah whatever i had a great place for 1k/mo in the center of town in a modern building utils included and furnished the first week i was there!!! later i found out the "housing shortage" is for the rent controlled places so they can get effectively what i paid 1k for, for only 200-300. but the wiating lists are something like 6-8 years long. they just refuse to pay the market rate for an apartment. no respect for capitalism there. :)

anyway i was happy with my apt and what i was paying.

I like the look you got going in there man...did it come with a kitchen and bathroom? Looks like just one room... and what is behind the big double doors behind the tv?

Looks great! Except where you have your turntables. You should check out this company that makes DJ furniture:

Great stuff, not too expensive.


www.guba.com

Theres another, empty room there.

I have a seperate bathroom and kitchen.

They have some nice stuff there!

kick ass pad battus :)

Looks sweet, I dig the fireplace and lamp :thumbsup

Thanks peeps.

is it strange being on solid ground?

now there is a name I havent seen in a while :thumbsup

Haha well not strange no...the boat didnt really move only when there was a strong wind but other than that it felt like solid ground as well.

I wish i could see it less :)

very comfy.. u got a nice place

been a long time man, so that means I'll drop by sometime.......isn't it strange to not live on a boat anymore?

Pretty nice looking cardbord box you got there.

Looks like the place to take the ladies.

Well, what im gonna miss most is not having neighbours. I was able to listen to music very loud in the middle of the night something thats not possible here obviously.

nice place, I like the look...


:thumbsup :thumbsup

Nice place Battuss.

I've eaten at that Hard Rock. Me and Bo at cheese and burgers there.

there goes freedom:glugglug

Looks very nice and comfy!! You're so organize! Love the place, love the city!:thumbsup

Congrats on the move Franck :thumbsup

cool, but your tv is blocking the doors :) and your bed is like on the ground.

nice pics dude :D :thumbsup

Looks very cosy and european :)

That sucks for the boat ... I would love to live in a boat ...

Your place looks very small thought ... but rent are so high... here for like 600 $ you can get a REALLY nice place ... 1000 $ you are talking about a nice house .

very nice place Battuss, you have good taste....congrats:thumbsup
