I've been waiting for this!!!!! The notification popped up right as I'm preparing for sleep, so I can't wait to watch this video in the morning! So happy for you, Arna! What an exciting journey!
Yay! So excited for you guys. Moving into your first (owned) home is so much fun. I loved the freedom of being able to do what ever I wanted decor wise, and not having to worry about painting or putting holes in walls like in previous rentals. I can’t wait to see what you do, I know it will be chic and beautiful because you have such great taste. 😍
Apparently once my parents moved and a freak snow storm came in. It was minus 20 or something. My brother and I were in one piece snow suits freezing. My mom was scrambling to find cardboard and tape to protect the carpet from the movers and packers. And the truck got stuck coming down the road and when it tried to leave. 😳 rain or snow. Equally the worst. Cold and wet and trying to not track mud. No fun. But yay! Now you are HOME!
Yay! I am so happy for you guys. Love following your journey to homeownership! Side note: thank you for showing the driving clips around NZ! I’ve always wanted to see that kind of thing. You mention walking/biking a lot of places so I’ve been curious if there are also a lot of cars & roadways around.
Loving the moving vlogs! This looked so easy and kinda effortless. You both looked so happy and satisfied at the end. Can’t wait to see your next update!
The actual move in the rain wasn’t quite effortless haha but we had great friends lending a hand, and my organisation skills really made it go as smoothly as possible!
So excited for you both. Always good when a move is done. The setting up can be fun. Can't wait to see the end result! Congratulations 👏 again. So wonderful 💕.
Just so you know, I started the video, and my husband legit screams, “Don’t watch the New Zealand girl without me! I wanna see their new house!” 🤣😂🤣 It’s possible he’s also invested. 🤓
So happy for you!! Omg your move looks like it went 10 times better than mine this summer. My poor husband had to work so much he literally didn’t have time to pack and I was SO pregnant I could only do so much to help. Can’t wait to see how you put everything together in the new place! Welcome to the crazy world of home ownership!! Xoxo
So happy for you Arna! Such an exciting time for you ☺️ My fiancé and I are going to start looking into buying a house in the next few months and I’m so excited! So I’ve really enjoyed your video journey about buying a house. Good luck with everything ❤️
Awww it's just the worst weather these days for moving! Good thing you made it! You both made it look so easy. Those boxes from bunnings hahaha i have a fair bit of experience with them 😂 My partner always says I pack them up too heavily, well it fits many things in it 🤷♀️😂 My favourite fish n chips shop looks dodgy as well but they're the best! Never let the appearance fools us
So happy for you guys! moving to another rental tommorow with a 1 year old after such a stressful hunt in Welly. we will be having fish and chips too haha.
Hi Arna, I just found you today here on RUclips. I subbed right away because your skin tone and coloring is so similar to mine. Let me say "Congratulations" on your new home, first. It truly is such a big deal and such an exciting time. Enjoy it All! Secondly: What are you wearing on your skin in this video? The base looks so flattering and dewy, or is that highlighter? Either way please share if and when you get the chance. Thanks so much. 🌿🕊️💕🌍
Hi lovely!! This is the Purito Cica Clearing BB Cream in shade 21! No highlighter either :) it’s just an amazing dewy base! I’ve gone through 5 tubes now haha The colour is a touch on the deep side, but it blends in well and doesn’t look to noticeably off as the undertone is great!
Why are the dodgiest chippies the best chippies? I love North Avon Fish Fry on Stanmore Road but there are always some very strange characters hanging around there 😂
For your next move I highly recommend hiring movers. I moved with movers 3 weeks ago, best money I ever spent. We’re also hiring cleaners to come clean before the new owners get the keys in a couple of weeks, I suspect that will be an even better use of money. I’ve moved about 15 times and I’m so done with it, I’m more than happy to pay someone else to do it! 😂
Haha no I kind of enjoy it 😅 and the cost of movers for the time we needed them would have been vast! We did have cleaners come through the old place though!
You enjoy moving?! 😦😂 I enjoy moving as in getting a new house/flat, decorating and being in a new place, but the actual moving of all my stuff from one place to another? Nope, not a chance! 😂 I guess you’ve had an enjoyable year then, having moved 3 times! 😂 And saved a lot of money in the process!
I think the threshold is more than one bed. Once you have a furnished guest room or kid’s room, it’s so worth it to pay people to make it show up somewhere else.
😁 yaaay so excited for the vlogs. I am from the UK and my husband and I would love to take the leap if it were possible and move to NZ it is paradise in comparison to here!

Will do that more :)

I bet it feels so good to have all your things in the new house. And how fun to unpack knowing this is your own home! Congratulations again! ❤️
It’s unreal how different it feels when you know you own it!

I know it feels to begin getting settled, making everything your own, setting in new routines and making new memories 🎉🥳🎊🙂🥰
Congrats you two lovelies! So happy for you on this new chapter in your beach house ❤️
Just so you know, I started the video, and my husband legit screams, “Don’t watch the New Zealand girl without me! I wanna see their new house!” 🤣😂🤣 It’s possible he’s also invested. 🤓
Haha that’s super cute!!
Rain is always good luck on a move!
I didn't know this!!

Woohoo!! I’m moving into our first home on Thursday, it’s taken a whole year to pack and declutter the last decade lol
Haha best of luck!

Seriously i hit subscribe when your hubby said " Get a bucket and a mop" LMAO that is the type of humour I need in my life lol
Haha glad it gave you a giggle!
🧡🌻🧡
There's nothing like having a pile of french fries to end a long day. Happy moving day!
Thank you!!
Wishing you all the hugge moments possible! (Hope I spelled it right) 🎶💜
Thanks lovely!! Very close: it’s Hygge xx

Also, to be fair, if we had children, I’d 100% hirer movers haha that would be a nightmare

Congrats on the move! 🙌🏻 You’ve probably answered this a million times before, but where are your adorable glasses from?
Thanks! They're by balmain from specsavers!

It really is lovely 🥰
Sorry!!! A heated jacket!! Omfg I need one here in Scotland!!! 😍
Haha right?? I love this invention! Brand is Ororo!
Great moving vlog! Random: What's a jam wrap?
Equivalent here in the UK would be a jam doughnut. Jelly donut if you’re in the US!
@@kikinibamalaam Thank you so much! Jelly donuts are sooo good!
yes!! deep fried sweet donut with jam inside and cinnamon sugar on the outside!
i thouht you were from Australia
Born in NZ, lived in Australia for 7 years xx
