I came from Instagram reels because I was dying to know his bathroom situation. I'm kinda glad it's shared but clean over it being crammed in there. He really made such a cozy home out of it!

This guy is so super organised that the apartment somehow seems big enough

[AlvesterGarnett]

Much respect to the renter and interviewer. I really dig the positive attitude of the renter and those were great questions posed by the interviewer. The renter's mom is very wise to recommend him inviting over a date to see if they are accepting of his living space to get an indication of the quality of their character. I hope he eventually gets a more comfortable space but I'm so impressed by how he's organized his space.

I'm a single, 43-year-old father who resides in Hamburg. If everything continues to go well for me, I intend to retire at age 50. I couldn't be happier right now than I am that I just bought my first house last month. I'm so happy that I made wise choices that altered my life forever.

That seems like a converted janitor's closet to me to something similar. I love his positive attitude. Anything is better than a shelter or the street.

Appreciate the content, I personally think this has lots of potential and I just love the idea of people sharing their thoughts on their interior and living situation - I feel like I can always learn something about how I can use space in my own apartment. All the best and greetings from Austria!

i actually appreciate his space. i mean it has all the things you need to live comfortably. he is also pretty neat that's why the space doesn't feel claustrophobic. good job for him! it would have been better if his window is floor to ceiling. but regardless this is a good space! 🥰

[erichmusic]

He's very humble to have something small he will be blessed to have bigger and better

[Framm]

honestly the thing that puts me off the most is the bugs. like, i lived for almost 6 months with bugs like that, all up in your personal space. couldn't do it again.

No, can not handle paper thin walls, that's a deal breaker. Also, sharing a communal bathroom in the hallway is a deal breaker. I guess a white noise machine, ear plugs or noise reducing earphones could help, along with a chamber pot.

Dude is hella organized…. His apt decor is calming- he must be a minimalist.

I like seeing how people look at the positive side of things, regardless of their situation and their living space 🌞 I know that I want to get married and have children in the near future, but when I move out on my own, I wouldn't mind a small or studio apartment, at all. That's all I need!

[mzdino]

At least he has a place! And it’s not dirty. So it could be A LOT WORSE! Good for him

[MaryJane-zwpv]

Isn't he worried someone would steal his bike?🤔🙄

And that bathroom situation is pretty decent.. While idk how neighbors/strangers could possibly share one single bathroom with both the toilet and shower inside it, I think the individual mini shower rooms and toilet rooms are an awesome idea!

I always enjoy seeing how other people live. Minimalism is very manageable, particularly as a young person, and I can see the sense in it when one is just getting their start in life, going to school, etc.. You are quite young, and I just want to point out that in many smaller towns in our country, you can own 40 acres and a large home with a mortgage payment the same as your rent price, and you’ll own it after 20 years. I know some prefer the energy and amenities of city life, but it’s worth at least going on vacation occasionally to a quiet, serene place in the country to see what else is out there. I look out my window daily and see wild turkeys, deer and other wildlife, and can go many hours a day not hearing even a car going past. It’s not for everyone, I know, but after spending 30 years of my life in the city, I find it refreshing to have peace and quiet, to take walks in nature, and to breathe fresh air. Just some things to consider.

[laveredasecreta]

No personal bathroom and no kitchen area? These New Yorkers are really getting ripped off lol

[JolieUTU]

I’m a minimalist & I would absolutely live in this apartment, happily! 😊

[Goldman-Khazar-Rothschild]

I would build a custom frame for the bed with a ladder going up to it. Then you could utilize the space under the bed.

Pro Tip for dealing with bugs, good old Borax, sprinkled and swept under baseboards, near molding/door Jam/under fridge will really help alot.

Everyone has to have a place to live you have to make the most of what you have, people learn to adapt.
