New Apartment - Page 4

Yes and no -- made it over there but wasn't actually in SF itself for as long as I would have liked. A lot of the trip was spent over in Napa Valley, which was fun but damn I can't hold a drink anymore. We didn't get around to seeing a lot that we wanted so we're probably going to make another trip out there at some point.

Wine tasting is pretty much the ONLY thing to do up in Napa. What all did you get to do in SF?

And @ Rebirth, $125k for homes doesn't sound like it's anywhere near the cheapest in the country. I have a lot of family in Louisiana and I know you can get a NICE house for around 80k.

**Reincarnate** · 06-10-2011, 02:18 PM

Went to a bunch of restaurants between Napa and SF (Tartine, Ubuntu, The French Laundry, Ad Hoc, a bunch of vineyards, Hog Island, Little Star, some tea places, etc)

Your vacation kinda sucked if all you did was wine and dine

**kommisar** · 06-10-2011, 03:07 PM

My parents house is a behemoth and it was around $400k. The same house on a property in California would probably be close to a million. I'd much rather live in an apartment or a small home. This house is just a bit to much and I can't even imagine what the heck they will do with the wasted space once my siblings and I move out.

Here's my backyard from the 2nd of 3 stories. I often feel like I'm living at a resort.

It was actually a lot of fun -- there just wasn't a lot of time.

**Reincarnate** · 06-10-2011, 03:13 PM

also what the hell izzy lmfao

**darkshark** · 06-10-2011, 03:21 PM

Something like that would go for 2-5million here in California easy.

**Rebirth0** · 06-10-2011, 03:37 PM

Izzy's house is insane. I'd live there in an instant, even if I didn't have enough stuff to fill all of the rooms. It looks like it should be about 600k

**Reincarnate** · 06-10-2011, 03:40 PM

Houses like that are beautiful and fun, but if there's nothing to do nearby, it can get boring

**kommisar** · 06-10-2011, 03:43 PM

i'd rather have a small one bedroom flat downtown where there's a shitload of stuff to do than have a cheaper huge house out in the country.

**darkshark** · 06-10-2011, 03:58 PM

^

This is why I'm moving closer to the city, I currently live in the middle of nowhere, it's AT LEAST a half hour drive in any direction to do anything worthwhile.

Also @ kommi/rubix: It's not that I think the trip itself sucked, it just sucks that there is SOOOOOO MUCHHHH to do around here and you didn't really get to experience any of it.

**Reincarnate** · 06-10-2011, 04:07 PM

Yeah I'll def check more out next time

I feel totally spoiled living in these big cities because anything I want to do is literally minutes away

**kommisar** · 06-10-2011, 08:00 PM

If I could be doing the job I have right now in Toronto I'd move in a heartbeat. I'm pretty envious of you being in nyc

**Reincarnate** · 06-10-2011, 08:06 PM

what kind of job do you work?

**kommisar** · 06-10-2011, 08:33 PM

I'm a chef in a provincial nursing home.

**Reincarnate** · 06-10-2011, 08:36 PM

NYC is a mecca for the culinary arts, lots of opportunity here

**kommisar** · 06-10-2011, 08:39 PM

difference is I'd never work in a restaurant again. Nursing homes have a very strict health code and everything is very structured and planned in advance. I love that.
