hi guys, today is my plan to take you to one apartment and ыуу it together
so why we're going to that apartment? the thing is me and Engin are renting an apartment in Kharkiv and
we started to rent it from May, i guess, so our contract is finishing and it's a time to take
a look at the new apartment. and I need to tell you that actually, when we were leaving Sri Lanka
and we had a plan to go to Ukraine, one of my biggest fear was to not find a good apartment for a short term
because we didn't know how long we will stay in Ukraine. as you might know, we are building our plans on the way
and we couldn't make a long-term renting. so we started to look and
luckily we found an amazing company which solved our problem. so actually this company has around 100 apartments
(I'm not sure, but something like that) and we were fully satisfied with their services and our home.
first of all, we feel like at home. so today is the day when we will look for a new house
I will make a house tour for you and we will see what can it be. so let's go and see it together
oh my god, guys, I'm so surprised, because this is actually the main street of the Kharkiv
and everyone is passing by here all the time
and I was so curious, so much curious always: what are these purple doors? where they are leading
like what is that? haven't been in this building, but always was curious and
right now we're going to the apartment, which is located in this building. so I'm so excited! let's go and see
wow, it doesn't look like the usual entrance area in most of the buildings in Kharkiv
look, I'm pretty sure that it's actually some historical building
it has amazing, incredible architecture and people take care so much,
they saved all architectural elements and they have even some paintings
my architect soul is so much satisfied right now
wow, what kind of a door is it? :)
And we are in!
so I directly can say that I like so much that there is such a high ceiling and it gives you so much air
and even if the apartment is not so much big, the high ceiling makes you feel like you have a huge space
so directly when we enter, we see the kitchen, and I can see the washing machine
for me, it's really really important. so there are a microwave, fridge kettle, and a cooker
everything you need to cook by yourself. and here like a dining table with the two seats
really functional. you can have food here or work here. I love this artwork, it's so bright and makes the space more fun
and here we are passing through this huge arch
I don't know, it's amazing, because the house is so old and historical and was created by some cool architects
uh there are such shapes and I'm so happy that people, when they made renovation, they didn't destroy this architecture
and here we're in a bedroom. so one of the biggest pluses, which I can see, is this light
I don't know when you have a good light in your space, it directly changes the vibe
it's so nice, it inspires you, you can create a lot of things. personally for me
so we can see here a big bed. I love this artwork, I love especially, because it's so big
so when the wall is not that big and this proportion makes it's like something really really cool
this is like a night table we can hold there some something, some stuff
in front of the bed I can see a TV, I feel like it's bigger than ours right now. right, Engin? - yeah. so it's a good thing
so basically I don't care about the TV, because we never watch it
but I need to... how do you say? "to confess" yeah, but I need to confess that lately, we started to watch a series called "Friends"
most probably you know. it's actually lifts up our mood and it's fun and you can improve your English
so it's like that, we say: okay, we need to improve our English and we watch sometimes. so that's our excuse
oh yeah, that's why a big tv it's a plus for me now. and here is some a small wardrobe
you can put here your clothes and this is so much fun, I've never seen such a small ironing board
so you can do it even on your lap, I guess. and it reminds me of one uh story, which happened lately
so we were on Johnny's birthday in Kyiv recently and
one of his friends came to Kyiv especially from LA, from Los Angeles . and he was preparing for Johnny's birthday
he wanted to be cool and he decided to iron his shirt. and in a second he burned it
sad story, it was such a pity story, but right now this reminds me exactly that story
so I can see here is a heater. also in winter it could be like extra heat
also cool that in this area there is a carpet. it could be so much comfortable
and you can just sit or lay down, yeah. we can do acro yoga and don't even need a mat. yeah yeah
it's really nice, I like carpets. I know that it's hard to take care of it,
but since this company provides a cleaning service :) so it's also very nice and easy
I also just noted that in this arch there's a big mirror, which is also perfect for women
super cool for men actually too. Engin also loves mirrors so much
I'm checking my progress on gaining weight
so here is the bathroom, it's small but it has a big mirror, a sink
a shower, and a toilet, and this water heater has a really nice shape, it's so long, I've never seen like that
it's cool, that it means like there's always hot water , everything you need. so also, guys
I want to show you the view of the window, because it's just perfect for me as an architect again
but maybe for normal people, it also could be some beauty. look at this house, actually, it's a famous restaurant
which calls in Russian "Итальянская редакция №2" so I can translate it as "An Italian reduction number two"
I don't know why this name came up, I don't know the story
but I can definitely say that the restaurant is really nice. so I think that
we definitely can consider moving in, to this house, and what I like the most
that it's an old building with a thick walls. it means that you are inside the city center
you are in the heart of the city, actually, in the evenings it's always busy
because most of the restaurants, bars here are open and mostly people come here to spend their evenings
but when you just come inside the apartment, it's totally silent and you can have a perfect rest
so you can stay here for a weekend, you can stay here for a month
or maybe even for two months. so I definitely love it and right now, I think, we can go and
and taste something in that restaurant, because I haven't been there maybe for three years
yes, I'm really happy and I'm excited to taste it. and still, I can't believe that it's exactly in front of that apartment where we just have been
so actually, that apartment and where we stay right now it's from a company called "Kharkiv apartment"
and if you're planning to visit Ukraine and maybe you want to have the experience to live in this city, called Kharkiv, I will leave the link in my description
and you can take a look there, because this company has more than 100 apartments
so I'm pretty sure you can find something that will fit you and you can go there daily, weekly or monthly
thank you so much for watching, I can't wait to taste this pizza... and see you in the next video! Start :) Bye-bye!
