    Nice apartment. I like the dark blue wall in the storeage area and the fairy lights. We call the rack a drying rack. There are suspended sound protection items for the ceiling. Anf your front door can be sound protected. Spasibo for sharing. Paka! Your dog and cat are beautiful and sweet.

    You did very well making your little apartment look very nice and homey and not cluttered especially the little kitchen Which looks actually so cute the way you have it done. Believe it or not in Oxnard California U.S.A. a friend rented a one bedroom senior apartment and her kitchen was much smaller than yours, you could stand in one spot and wash dishes, cook and get stuff out of the refrigerator without moving at all the freezer Only had space for a ice tray and maybe a small TV dinner and that would be pushing it. Probably take your kitchen and cut in half and fill with the counter sink and stove/oven and small refrigerator.haf only enough space for one person and the dining area was bigger and that you could stand and touch your foot to that space. Thank you very much for showing us your apartment, hope you get to a New place that you will be very happy in with your husband and fur babies 💜🐾

    Hi from the U.S. I just wanted to mention that I really like your kitchen wallpaper. In the U.S. you can often find a house that has maybe been decorated by an Interior Designer and the house will have mostly solid colors on most the walls in the house and then you may come to a bathroom, like the small guest bathroom downstairs and it often will have a really wild, loud wallpaper. I just love seeing a room with a wild, loud wallpaper and your kitchen reminds me of that. Your English and expressions are terrific! I like you basically minimal style.

    Hello! Greetings from beautiful Kentucky! I enjoyed your home tour! I think you did a great job renovating your apartment. I loved your kitchen. The wallpaper gave it an elegant personal touch!
    I do understand why you would like white in the future. The nice thing about the cabinets white is then any color of paint on the walls or wallpaper looks good with it.
    I liked your living room and bedroom too.
    The only things I didn’t like was the toilet and bathroom separate and no sink with the toilet. Maybe you could put a little sink in with the toilet. Because if you accidentally got something nasty on your hands, then you have to touch several doorknobs to get to a sink to wash your hands.
    Your cat is beautiful!

    I’ve renovated two homes here in Canada. I’m pretty handy with basic trades and skills …I enjoy the work. This is why I’m interested in watching what people such as yourselves have done to your homes. I’m fascinated by Moscow apartments because of the different challenges …. space challenges…. structural challenges. You’ve both done phenomenal work here. It’s inviting and super organized at the same time. Aside from the exposed pipes…you would never know that this was built in 1969. I’m assuming that you studied English in Russia or you lived/studied in Western Europe… because your language skills are tops… you’ve got all the expressions nailed down. Smart couple…smart apartment. Kudos !
    Happy Holidays🇨🇦👍🎄🎁🥂

    I love how you have added pretty colors and decorations to your apartment! It looks vibrant and lovely!
    Here's a tip about the expanding yellow foam from renovations. You can actually use a knife and cut off the bumpy parts, because it is a "closed-cell" foam. When you cut it, the foam still insulates because it doesn't lose that quality. Then once the foam has the bumpy parts sliced off with a knife, you can paint the foam! Might want to try a small area first :)
    Thanks for the tour of your cute apartment! You and your husband did a wonderful job with the renovations. 🤩

    Love the apartment! I was waiting all video for you to tell us how much you pay a month for it. Like the percentage of both you and your husbands monthly income. I live in a small 2 bedroom apartment in Melbourne, Australia. It's renovated but smaller than yours. We have no room for a dining table or any storage except under the stairs. I'm on the 3rd floor, no elevator which is a pain. I have the quietest neighbour you could ever get but my place is on a busy highway and you hear sirens and loud motorbikes. Our wardrobe is bigger, we don't have a dryer so I use the clothes horse like you. The apartment is over $1200 a month and we can't do any renovations. It's all electric but Australia has the most expensive electricity in the world. Luckily it doesn't get cold enough for me to need heating or not to hot in summer. I do have a split system air conditioner. Animals in apartments, especially dogs? Here there's 32 apartments on our block. Dogs wouldn't be allowed but some people have cats. Our electric plugs are different than any other countries also. I'm in a nice area. Across the highway is a large shopping complex, we have a large swimming pool and at the back of our apartment block is the beach. I think Ikea is no longer in Russia?

Similar technology (panel built), lots of investment needed, and very modest space, but it was possible to turn it into a nice place to live. Good luck, you are doing a great job! And I hope you will soon transform not only your apartment but the entire country into a positive, good place to live. I do not want to go too much into politics, you know very well what I mean.

And she would always bang her toes on the radiator. And their bed took up almost the entire room. They just managed to squeeze the furniture in and somehow when my brother was a baby there was a crib in there too. I don't know how. It was 56 years ago or something
