My first new old house

I’ve been contemplating on starting a blog for years, but I haven’t had enough inspiration to focus on a specific topic. Today, I have decided to finally blog…at least start on an interesting topic…

I’ve recently bought a new house, yes a house! Isn’t it exciting?! It’s actually a new old house, because the house is 25 years old already. Since the year started, it’s been normal for me to spend my weekends in Borders scanning through tons and tons of photos in the magazine section, borrowing books in the library for articles and tips, and of course, surfing some awesome home improvement websites.

I’ve lived in Sydney for the past 3 years and their love of property development here is amazing. Year 1900 houses are being converted to look like brand new, bungalows converted to have more levels up, extensions here and there, and a lot lot more.

Aside from home improvements, I’m also stunned in green living. I’m currently living in a country where everything is living for the future – healthy living and fresh produce, building sustainable homes, solar power …awesome. All these ideas are going through my mind as I start renovating my own house.

This is an important stage in my life, and hopefully through this blog, I will be able to keep track of the whole renovation experience, and at the same time share some information and tips from my research to the people who are currently renovating or are planning to renovate soon.

So, don't move, improve!
