Living Large

This is an experiment in large-scale living.

Yup, you read that right.

My first place was a 400 sq. ft. studio--which might sound expansive to those of you tuning in from NYC, but in the suburbs surrounding Seattle some homeowners have bathrooms larger than that. When I move into the city proper, my student-sized budget again limited my housing options and my S.O. (significant other) and I ended up in a 520 sq. ft. one-bedroom.

So while I've been a proponent of small-scale living for most of my adult life, I have embraced living small without any idea of what it feels like to live large. This year I will change that. This blog will chronicle my experiences of living in a two-story, two-bedroom, two-bath 1300 sq. ft. apartment for 365 days. Will I like it? I don't know. More importantly, will I go back to small space living after this year is over? I think so, but we'll see how I feel eight-months from now. I might become addicted to closet space, after all. Stranger things have happened.
