I have lived in a lot of places. That’s an understatement. I am now in my second apartment in the same building I moved in exactly a year ago. It’s been about a month that I have lived in my current apartment. In the past, I was very […]
I have lived in 22 cities. I’ve moved around a lot. And, that is an understatement. Just in the city of Los Angeles alone I lived in four places. Moving, no matter what, is stressful. Leave it to me, to move apartments during a pandemic. Why not? Having […]
