oh boy I'm sorry about the audio in this one...thanks for sticking with me...promise it will be better when stuff is actually in it 😂
Honestly, It’s not too noticeable 💛
I’m actually so thankful for all your moving videos!! I’m relocating from Southern CA to Portland for a job and I would’ve never considered downtown/pearl if weren’t for your content. I toured your current building and looked at this area also and although I just signed a lease with another building, (one from another RUclipsr which u actually commented on with the great kitchen:) it really helped to see empty and lived in options before touring in person. Ultimately figured it would be the last time I’d experience urban living before buying a house. I’m actually in packing hell right now, lol. Moving out of state is so much harder!! Looking forward to streamlined apartment living but still gonna need a little storage unit for all my hobby/sports equipment, got any recommendations?
sounds ok to me.
How can anybody be hating on Kiara? Most wholesome content on RUclips.
I love you 😘😘
People are miserable and bitter
Right! & we Love moving Vlogs ❤
As soon as I saw you sitting in this kitchen at the beginning of the video I got so excited! I was sad for you when you moved out of this place and could tell you weren’t as excited about your current apartment as you were about this place. Don’t let random internet strangers make you feel bad about doing what makes you happy. Congratulations!!
You know me so well. Thank you so much for the encouragement and support ❤️
my therapist told me last year that being/becoming an independent adult is all about making decisions and learning to be ok with those decisions. Watching you do just that as I go through extremely similar life events is so relatable and validating. So proud of you for making this decision despite what others may say/think. you have to do what makes you happy even if it involves a lot of effort/doubt. go Kiara!!!
it's so sad to me that anyone can give you hate for literally just moving! your content is so freakin wholesome and fun - how can anyone give you shit for that?! keep doing whatever your heart desires girl! the real ones will continue to follow and enjoy every moment 💗
Thank you so much, I appreciate it! ❤
It’s so comforting to see you back in this apartment!! The layout just fits!
Agreed!! Everything I need in such a cut little place :)
I'm 29 and in my 20's I have never lived in an apartment/house for more that 2 years at a time (and I don't have a single moving tip, moving is a pain no matter what lol). I could see the emotion in your eyes when you talked about your 2020 struggle and that right there is how you know you made the right decision to move back to an apartment that feels like home. I am SO proud of you sweet girl.
I could feel your energy change when you moved! I’m so happy you’re back in a space and environment that brings out the best you.
I LOVE THIS VIBEEEE LOVED THIS APARTAMENT ERA
Same!! Good vibes only!
I CANT WAIT FOR ALL THE MOVING VLOGS!!!!
I love you miss Keegan ❤
it’s so funny bc I saw the thumbnail and I was said to myself “that looks like her old apartment” Then I watched the video and it made so much more sense. Proud of you for doing what’s right for you!
hahah I'm back 😂👏
When I was in my 20s, I moved to different apartments and states! This is when you’re supposed to explore. You go through so much at this time. It’s supposed to be terrifying, yet exciting. How are you going to figure out what you want without exploring? During you’re 20’s, you’re figuring out what you like and who you are. You will not regret any of this in your future❤
So happy and proud of you that you're doing what's best for you and you get to be back in the space that you feel so comfortable in!! I love this apartment and it definitely fits you, you seemed happier there and the vibes are just right. Can't wait to follow this journey!!
I love the moving content! Seeing your dorm move ins was how I found your channel and it’s so comforting to watch these
So excited for this new chapter in your life! I've been watching your videos since I was in high school, and now I am in my first year in medical school. Your new uploads always feel like an update from an old friend. I'll always be thankful to you for sharing these snippets of your life with us and for inspiring us! :)
Kiara I freaking love your personality!! I love you as a person!! ♥️🥰 keep pushing and don’t let anyones comments get you down.
Super proud of you for trusting your gut & moving back. You made the right choice and it’s gonna pay off in the end. It’s almost as if you had to live in the other place to know what you didn’t want. And honestly, that is a realization that somebody makes out of maturity. I can’t wait for the Vlogs when you buy a house someday girl! It’s going to be amazing! Before I bought my first home, I lived with my parents for nine months. And then moved out to an apartment that I loved for seven months. And then the house of my dreams went on the market and I had to do it. And I was 23. It’s never a straight line to your destination. There’s always going to be twists and turns.💛
I'm so happy you're back here!! It's so bright and happy and I think it will help mental health. Honestly, what matters most is your health and happiness. I'm so proud of your decision Kiara!!
girl i am so proud of you! i love watching your videos and watching you grow from college to now. YOURE DOING AMAZING!!!
Thanks Hayley!! ❤️
I moved SO much in my early/mid twenties! I love to see your moving adventures, it reminds me of that wild time in my own life.
Thank you! I guess some people don't, but I feel like this is what all my friends are going through too!
So happy for you!! It’s great that you’re figuring out what works best for you, where you live is so important and makes such a difference! I’m also a huge fan of the moving and organization content so I can’t wait to see how you set the new place up 💗
Aww thank you so much Katie!! ❤
Yes! This is so exciting - I adored this place and your furniture fit so well here last time 🎉 This is such an exciting time for you - can't wait for the future vids from here 😊
I’m happy for you and the moving! I really loved that apartment and for what I can remember, my favorite video was your Christmas with Katie in that apartment. So to be back, makes me happy too. I wish you the best in the new chapter
Aww yes!! I cried watching that video the other day...another sign I made the right decision :)
You lived in this building when I first discovered you on RUclips, so it’s so comforting to see you back! Excited for the moving content❤and keep saving for that house, believing we’ll see that “I’m a home owner” video!🥰 much love from North Carolina!
Aww I love that I am back too. Feels so right! Thanks for watching & for the sweet comment....I can't wait for that video either!
What I really love about you is that you show the good things and the difficult things. It's so important that you feel good, safe and at home in your apartment. I'm happy for you. I wish I did move when I was unhappy in my old place.
Thank you so much! So appreciate your sweet comment ❤
Kiara!!! I am so happy for you! When I tell you how big my smile was when I read the title of this video, OMG! Anyways, I wish you the best of luck with this move and I can't wait to see ALLLLL of the moving vids, because personally, they're my favorite ;)
I’m so glad you’re back in your old place, I absolutely loved it!
Me too! 😊
Always do what's best for you and what makes sense for your future goals! 💜
Moving is so chaotic and stressful and love watching others move because it helps me with figuring it out. And moving around can be kind of fun experiencing different spots of the city/state and finding new spots in different neighborhoods to get food or coffee. I think it’s been amazing you’ve found a space that feels like home. I’m still looking for mine.
So happy that you are making the best decisions for YOU and what you want!!
Honestly living in a place that you absolutely love is so worth it! I’m so glad you had a chance to figure out what’s best for you! Your content is so wholesome, always makes me want to move to Portland!! I’m in Salem, so it’s tempting!😂😅 Love you girl!! Congrats on moving back!!🥰
Your moving videos are some of my favorite ones! Keep shining and don’t let anyone dim your light!💚
Thank you so much 🥰💕
I think it is wonderful that you moved back to where you are happiest. Don't worry about what other people think. Do what is best for you. Congrats girl .🌻
Kiara I haven’t watched your videos in a while just because nursing content isn’t what I’m into, but I came back to this video since I love your moving vlogs and wanted to say I really appreciate the way you are so honest and real and making responsible life choices and posting them online. I think sometimes it can be hard to relate to other influencers when they’re not as financially conscious as many of their viewers are. So keep up what you’re doing and your viewers will support you!❤
I’m so happy for you! You always seemed a lot happier in this apartment so hopefully this will be a great change!!
I'm so excited to be back!
Congratulations! I’m so proud of you!
I love the moving videos!! You are just fine having them. Sometimes its great to have content related to life skills in general and you do an excellent job with them. Moving is a part of life so its just fine showing them because they can be stressful and overwhelming at times and we can all learn from each other :-)
thank you for making this video. im 23 and moving to boston from california as a new grad and knowing someone else who also feels excited for change is really encouraging to hear
Sending you all the good vibes that you love your new home as much as I do!! ❤️
Congrats on all of the new opportunities coming your way! You recently graduated, past the NCLEX, moving back to a place that was a sanctuary and home for you, new job, new relationships, an epic ski season is approaching, new subbies, new brand deals and whatever else your heart desires. You are so sincere, kind, loyal, and hard working… Please know these things shine through without you having to explain your heart, intentions, and goals. Always know you have more people for you then will ever be against you!
I actually like apartments that have more natural light (and I am not a person that films) especially during the fall and winter so your new/old place won me over with that essential feature alone.
Suggestion: Maybe get one of the bookcase or a bookshelf desk to go where you old bar area was. It can proved decoration and extra storage.
@Evelyn Isabella You will pass everyone has their own season, just keep keep going pray and believe you will receive yours Mrs Sophia like everyone has been saying she can be off help
@Evelyn Isabella Am sorry for that some people also pass through the difficulties just be patient and keep studying
I'm really sorry about that but I got used to it until I succeeded, I failed 5 times before I finally passed, it would have been 6 but Mrs Sophia saved me from failing again.
Mrs Sophia has made success in Nclex easier than we though
I got recommendation about her on Twitter and I got her info, please how good is her.
Its great that you are figuring everything out! And I loved this appartment so much (and the moving vlogs haha) So excited for you and the new adventures!
Yay! Thank you! ❤️
You go girl!! Your space is the most important thing and you should feel happy there
Thank you so much Amie 🥰💕
Yay!! 🙌🙌🙌. It’s smaller but so much cozier. I found this floor plan so much more interesting.
BRB watching all the past videos from this apartment because I absolutely loved it and it brings back so many memories, from you adding your cool looking camera light bulb to your 6-12month goals. Ugh we need to hunt down that side table, it deserves to come along this journey 😩
Awww yes wow so many mems. Those videos seriously helped me make my decision that place was so happy and perfect!
Always had a soft spot for this apartment so glad to see you back! 🥰
you're not the only one ;)
Life is always moving! I'm so happy for you and ngl I love moving vlogs 💗
it really is...way too much work, but looking forward to being settled again ❤️
So excited for more moving content! I've always been obsessed with this apartment.
Me too...can't wait to be back and settle in!
Yay!! Happy for you😘 always do what’s best for you!! 💕💕💕
Thanks! I totally agree with this 👏
I'm soooo excited for you! You have to do what's best for you and do what fits your life at that moment. Ignore the haters! Love your channel ❤😊!
Kiara!! This makes me SO happy for you! I’m not going to lie, the current apartment never gave me your vibes. It’s super nice for sure, but this apartment is just so you. I’m sooo excited to see ya move back into here!! I think we can all see how happy you were here!
I love this apartment! I’m so glad you are moving back and that you are excited too :)
Your Moving vlogs have always been my favourite, I started watching you when you moved in college for the first time ❤and I’m really looking forward to watching you move in to this apartment😊
Aww yay I'm so happy to hear that! Thanks for coming along for the ride!
Awww, that opening 'scene'!!! It looked familiar instantly 💖... I am sooo happy for you, It must be the best feeling ever to discover and realize 'where home is supposed to be' 💖
Always follow your heart, Kiara! So happy for you!
Thanks Lindsey!
Oh, I love your moving and organization videos! Thank God you decided to share it with us 😊
Thank god you guys stuck with me though it all! Love you ❤️
omg KIARA !!!! I am so so happy for you that you are back in a space you feel the most at peace in and are just genuinely in love with! Don't understand why people would send you hate bc YOU decided you wanted a change of scenery like :// Anyway, so excited for you to embark on this new chapter and I WILL be watching all the moving vids and all the vids after that
Yayyyyy!!!! I got so excited when I saw the old apt with a recent upload date 😂 This building is clearly your happy place, but bonus that it’s a great financial decision too! Be true to yourself and the right doors will always open for you ❤
So happy for you! I always felt like your old place suited you more. It‘s so homey 🥰
Thank you! I agree with you completely!
I'm so excited for you Kiara. I would probably get some hanging shoe/clothes organizers for the hallway closet to put some of your ski stuff to make a bit more room
Girl I loved this place! I remember when you moved into this complex! Love that you decided to move back because this place always felt cozy from your videos
I feel the same & am so happy to be back!
Your moving content is my favorite! Happy you’re back in the cutest apt. ☺️
Feels so good to be back ❤️
Oh, I love that you are moving again. You´re moving content is just the best and I also loved this apartment, it made me want to move even though I am just finishing High School in Germany this school year.
I´m very much excited for the coming content.
Have a lovely day 😘😘
Aww thanks! Congrats on finishing up school too! So close ❤️
We love you so much!!! So happy for your new beginnings! One tip for decorating is looking at Pinterest or even on the Target app (I work at target lol) because they have fully inspired rooms and you can buy what you like in those rooms. That’s how I decorated my room and I love it!
Love you Kiara!! You made my day as always!!!💗💗🥰
Thanks Ava! You make mine!
So so so happy that you're happier!!! Congrats on your new place and welcome home!!
Thank you so so much!
Keep doing you sis!!! Great job as always 😌
Honestly, I am so happy for you, that you are able to move back to the building that felt soo much like home in the past! ❤ I also expected it for a little while now, since the first time that you mentioned this appartment building again. I knew you would move back there somehow! Soo excited to see what you do with the space this time!!!
I think the only moving tips I have from my recent move in July are:
1) trash bags around the hanging cloths and use the suitcases for heavier things like books instead, because this way you have it easier carrying them
2) Get enough people to help you move and plan with a little lunch break. We did both of those things when moving my best friend out of her appartment and it was soo much more relaxed then my own move!
Aww thank you...yea when I really want something I am determined to make it happen! Thanks for the moving tips too...treating my friends and fam to the best lunch breaks for helping me!
Honestly, I'm SO excited you're back in this building and really liked how you set it up before. Excited to see the process and what you end up changing this time around. I definitely agree that the exposed concrete makes it hard to feel homey and it always felt so much darker in that apartment. This one has such amazing lighting and you're truly glowing with how happy you are to be back. Congrats!
Yes! Totally agree. Thank you so much for the support & the sweet comment!
This is so so exciting!! Can't wait to see how you decorate the place ❤
Me too!!
IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU!
Ngl I love your moving vlogs but also I’m happy you’re moving back to this apt complex because you definitely seem happier in that location. Can’t wait for all the videos to come from this new moving journey :)
I think I truly was. So hyped to be back!
Just found you! I love moving vlogs!! They are so much fun. Happy moving❤❤
so happy for you and your new space! I’m just getting into skiing more seriously as an adult and would love a video from you for tips on gear, choosing a seasons pass etc. I’m also in pdx and chose meadows this year but would be interested to hear your thoughts on the different ski resorts in the area!! i skied a little bit (1-5days/year) as a kid and chose meadows because I loved it then, hopefully it will still be fun for a whole season.
omg I LOVE this idea. I have wanted to do a what's in my ski bag video with all my gear for SO long...this year I need to make it happen!
So happy you’re back at the apartment you love! Your living space is SO important ignore the hate from people who don’t have anything better to do. ❤
Yes! Totally agree & appreciate your support ❤
I’m so excited for you! it’s so sad people make comments, I started watching in 2020 and it’s so cool to see how far you have come from then! You look so happy in this and I love it!
So excited for you. Love the apartment!
I love your moving videos!! I especially love watching Doug when he puts everything in the truck! It’s like his own jigsaw puzzle!! Three cheers for Doug! You do what you need to do to make yourself happy! 🙋🏻♀️💕
Omg I know his brain is so good at that!

aww thank you Heather! More moving videos to come!
You truly look so happy. Can’t wait for new house content in the future💗✨
So much to look forward to ❤️
Don't be afraid to start moving soon. There is a ton that you can live without in your current space and move to the new one. It really makes all the difference not having to do it all in a few days. Best of luck, Kiara. You sounded so joyful in this video.
sooo happy and excited for you! 🤍
Thank you, I am too 🥰
love your channel and so happy your back in the apartment. It’s cute and cosy. I’m happy your happy 💕💕💕💕
Thank you!! 😊
I thought it was a past video because of the apartment but when I realized that its a new video! I am so happy that you're back from that apartment where you feel your at home!! ♥️♥️ So glad for you girl! Forget those haters. Live your life to the fullest ♥️ I will always suppport youu
literally had to check the time stamp to see if you were just reposting an old video. So happy for you!!!!! WE LOVED THE OLD APARTMENT ANYWAYS
haha I knew that would trow people off...had to address that in the start of the video lol
I love moving content 😍 I live in a very small Appartement right now and can't wait to be somewhere else. Life throws so many things at us and sometimes that means moving back an forth between places.
Exactly! When you find your perfect home you got to stay or find the place that feels right ❤
I enjoyed the video Kiara and the apartment looks nice also no need to be nervous about it you have to do what’s best for you
Thank you so much ❤
@@KiaraMadisen you’re welcome ❤️
I'm so proud of you for making the decision that feels right to you, and I'm sorry that people on the internet are rude sometimes. It totally makes sense to move back to a place that feels like home and can save you some money! I love moving content and can't wait to see how you decorate this place
Thank you so so much for the support ❤️ Can't wait to share how it goes :)
I’ve always loved this apartment ☺️ Can’t wait for the moving content 😀🤎
Me too!!
So pumped for the moving vlogs!!!
Yay! 🥳
Omg my first thought on playing the video was “the hexagon tiles, its the old apartment!”. Its so cool to see you back there. Am excited for the organization and apartment decor vlogs! ✨
hehe you're so smart! I'm hyped to be back!
wishing i had a good moving tip to share!! what i can share though is that there is nothing wrong with doing what you need to do!! people will say want they want but at the end of the day your happiness is what matters!! keep doing you and i hope this is a smooth move for you:) thanks for sharing your life with us, im currently in school to get my degree in psychology and then go to nursing school after so it was really nice to see someone else talking a similar route of getting degree before going to nursing school. thanks again:)
I’ve moved 5 times in 5 years. This is all about you and what you want!
please never stop the moving content lol I live for all these videos !!
I’m moving to my first apartment around december so I’m nervous and excited at the same time! So many things to do. I’m excited to watch your moving vlogs!
I am so so so excited for you! It's a process, but one you will remember forever ❤
Can’t wait to see you decorate!!!! Love your content!!!
Yay! Thank you!
I was so hoping you would find your way back to this apartment - I'm so happy for you!!
Thank you so much! I am too :)
