Stocking up


597F0010.jpg

When arriving in the UK with one suitcase, one has to stock up on all the normal luxuries. In addition, the great search for properties to rent was on. Furnished properties were scarce when I arrived, so we settled on an unfurnished place, and the hunt for furnishings was on!
