The way that I'm going to make NL's codeplatform entirely pink, to compensate for having to de-pink my house 🥲🌸

@Gina i also avoid drilling holes since covering them would probably require some painting.

We are on the far west side looking out over the polders. There's some older places in russicheburt and the like that are pretty nice, but old enough to be concerned about the foundations at our price range (€400k ish in 2023).

Greece has a lot of beaches and houses with gardens not fqr from them. Bulgaria has a very short coastline, but if a sea is not required, the rest of thr country is very picturesque and not as hot as Greece. Our new political power on top of the country is a bit troubling though.

@Gina I was so over rental bullshit that I moved onto a sailboat

And then bought an old farmhouse in dire need of renovating.

Because at least I can paint and drill and tear out walls and make it any colour I want.

And its ours. So any improvments we make to it are also ours.

@krisfreedain I'd trade in a heartbeat! (during summer)

@Gina @chasalin @h3artbl33d Which is also not a bad place to live, and if you can work from a computer you can get quite a lot of work done on the ferry. It's just that most places in the Netherlands are still quite far from the mainland ferry ports...

@Gina Yeah, it does suck to have to paint so you can leave, but maybe the corollary to that is if you intend to inhabit a space for a while, paint it the way you like first thing so you can enjoy it for the longest time possible.
