You are probably the only person in the world who could make a video about moving that is actually relaxing!

We’ve watched you move into this apartment, change it to your liking, live through lockdown and seen the seasons come and go. You’ve gently shared some of the background sitting behind your life as a minimalist and the reasons for your moving on and it’s with all this in mind that I wish you a very happy move. Cheers 🥂

My heart warms when I see things and spaces treated with care. There's something very satisfying about finding a new owner for your things, making sure they will be useful for somebody else if you don't need them anymore. Same thing with a flat or a house you're leaving, making sure it's clean and shiny after being well-used and well-loved so those who come after you can do the same.

The lady who bought your old apartment is so lucky as you left it in pristine, like new condition! Looking forward to videos on your new place and wishing you many years ahead of happiness and good health in your new apartment.

Always have admired your attention to detail and the pride you take in completing small, but impactful tasks. The new owner will appreciate the effort as many of us have moved into homes that needed deep cleaning. I am so looking forward to seeing how you put the new home together and watching you embark on another chapter of your life.

How poignant to see your old apartment being so carefully dismantled, it’s been quite a journey! Wishing you every happiness in your new home and looking forward to your next reveal 💞

I must say seeing the apartment stacked up with all the boxes and then completely empty made me tear up a bit. I remember watching one of the early videos and seeing the place when you had just first moved in! Wow how time has flown by. I'm excited to see the new space and how you make it your own. Congratulations on your move!!

It is the end of an era! I am looking forward to seeing your new home, I hope that you, Mini and Bonus have many happy years in your new space. 😁😁😁😁😁

Seeing your former space empty, it became very clear how much of its delightfulness was due to your exquisite eye for editing. I'm sure you will bring your particular talent for balancing beauty, comfort and simplicity to the new space. Thank you for sharing all of it with us!

Benita! I am so excited for you and your new home in a place you wanted to live in. I will miss seeing your patio and the apartment in general, but I am so happy for you now that you finally moved. You are a great woman and an inspiration to me. I admire your ability to focus, organize, and make spaces workable. Thank you for sharing this process! 🌷

Very inspired by your approach to the move and the care you took to make: 1. the actual move easier for the crew 2. the unpacking easier for you, and 3. the place lovely for the new owner. Very mindful all the way around. Congratulations on your new home. Your videos are always a delight.

Felt a little emotional watching this - and realized just how much a home is only a home when you put your special touches on it. You made this space so welcoming - and I'm looking forward to seeing your new place come to life. Congratulations on every aspect of your move - and wishing you all the best! Can't wait for the tour and to see how Bonus and Mini like thier new home! xx

Wow, it honestly feels like we are moving with you. The new owner is so fortunate to receive such a beautiful place. Plus she gets to see her new place being displayed on youtube -- great inspiration for her! I'm really looking forward to seeing the new place. Onto the next chapter!

Whoever bought your apartment is one lucky person or family. Not only did you improve the place but you left it so clean. Wishing you the best in your new home. Looking forward to a tour! ~Many Blessings~

Your new place, from the glimpses you are showing us looks enviable. Nothing replaces historical architecture.

Such a smooth move. Actually relaxing to watch. 😉Planning ahead a move is 90% of the work. When I moved from my shared flat after I finished my studies to my own apartment in another city, friends that helped me, said it was their most effective and well-planned move ever. They had helped people before who hadn't packed everything yet and were buzzing around the total chaos with no plan while the helpers didn't know what to do. So I can at least say that I can manage a move properly although I am not a minimalist. 😎 A pro tip is also to pack a box with the most urgent items for the first days after your move. I called it the "number 1 box" with some cups, bowls, plates, cutlery, tea towels, dish soap, some tea/coffee, ramen noodles, oats, *toilet paper* , an electric kettle, your nighty, soap, shower gel, shampoo and other toiletries in it, you need for the first few days. So that you can eat, drink and go to sleep properly without rummaging through several boxes.

It was emotional seeing your apartment empty. I've become so attached to watching you in there doing your thing. Really appreciate how kind you've been to your habitat. Can't wait to see how you decorate your new place! ❤️

I know it might not have been all the time but it’s incredible how cool you look whilst moving, this is the result of planing ahead of time, there is no need for stress or rush, you can enjoy every step of the way, I look forward to seeing the new one 🎉

I feel a little sad, like I'm moving myself! It's been great to watch you take such good care of this space. Can't wait to see what you do next. Lycka till!

You must be so excited! I’m very happy for you. In any move, there always some bitter sweet moments of leaving one home to the other

I feel nostalgic and I haven't even lived there 😭I wish you all the happiness in your new home Benita, thank you very much for sharing it with us!

I am so happy for you! I can’t wait to see the new apartment!

Aww, Benita! i am feeling such sadness watching your old apartment and saying goodbye. As you can see, I have been trying to be minimalist (which brought me to your channel) but I get sentimentally attached, even to your apartment via RU-vid! i know your move is for the better, you will be closer to your son and friends and that’s important. I will still dream of one day living in a place as nice as your last apartment! It was perfect ❤️

So good Benita! A new home in a new year! And you will start there celebrating your new life! ♡

Sad to see you leave your old apartment but excited to see how you set up your new one. Hope Mini and Bonus settle in ok 😺😸

Congratulations on the move! 🎉 It’s always a huge task to move when you’ve lived in a home for a long time. Even though you are a minimalist, there’s still a lot of furniture and items that you have to decide to keep or lose. Happy for your new place❤

Was with you on your last move this one closer to friends and family feels sweet. So happy for you and you will be settled in near your loved ones by Christmas. 🥰🇨🇦

The 3 homes we have moved into have been filthy from top to bottom on move in day, so instead of unpacking items into cabinets right away, a deep clean of every single room had to be done including shampooing carpets and steaming tiles and hardwoods. Not to mention they were “American sized homes” with our second being 3 stories tall and over 3,000 sq ft. After that house we moved into a 1,200 sq ft house that had to be completely renovated including the flooring so you can imagine that challenge alone. Even subfloor had to be removed and replaced when we renovated our 2 bathrooms. I’m really enjoying our “tiny home” to American standards. Most people couldn’t even imagine having 4 people in such a tiny space but it suits every want and need we have. It has an incredible layout. I can’t wait for more videos of your new place ❤

I bet the buyer of your 'old' home was so happy to see you left everything so well cleaned and maintained. This whole video shows there are soooo many advantages to living with less 'stuff' 😆 I always smile when I see Minnie and Bonus 🥰 Hi from hot, humid subtropical Australia 🥵 xx

Congratulations on your new home and it was beautiful to see how smoothly packing went because you know exactly what you have and need to be happy and content. Trying to declutter before Christmas in many areas of my home and life I find you inspiring and thoughtful. Thank you for helping me on my journey through your channel. I also find your voice very nice and your tone positive and motivational. thank you again.

Wish you just the best in your new home. So good of you to clean everything in details for the new owner...hope the cats will love the new place 😻

I love your videos! I wish you posted more I would watch everyday. As it is I binge watch your videos over and over. They are inspirational and help me feel confident in my minimalist journey. And I love the sound of your voice and music 😁♥️👍

Looks like your move went smoothly, it certainly pays to have a plan. We moved in 2019 from a 21/2 story lake front home to a one story home next door to my elderly mother. I will never do another move ! We had gotten rid of a ton of stuff before the move but it wasn’t enough. Our lake house had so many stairs… just to get to the front door you had to go up 14 stairs. We had 2 large pods delivered. We filled the first one ourselves with mostly boxes, tools ,etc… The second pod was packed by the movers with our furniture… everything had to go down the 14 stairs. That’s not including the 2 sets of stairs that were inside the house! I can still see the faces of the men when they saw all the stairs… what a nightmare! At least they were young and strong! My husband and I were already 60… it about killed us! I still have nightmares… never again. Can’t wait to see your new place. I always enjoy your videos… so calming and peaceful.

I will miss this fabulous space! Looking forward to the seeing the new one. 🎄✨️❄️💛😊

Today started out as a great day. And your Benita helped make it even more special. I waited for your video all these days. I'm excited.

Can’t wait to see you settle in your new place! 🎉congratulations 🍾

Happy Birthday Benita!! wish you all the Best! 🙂

Good luck ❤

Best wishes Benita. Moving is a lot of hard work. Enjoy your new home. Really looking forward to seeing the next video 🤗

I have a bit of a farewell pain 😢, because I really liked your apartment, especially the patio. But I'm pretty sure the new apartment will be very nice, you will furnish it very comfortable and cosy and you also will be happy there. I am very excited about the new apartment. Best wishes from Hamburg!

Wow, such a nice moving experience. Planning and decluttering benefits for all to see.

It’s good to see you doing so well. Merry Christmas

So happy for you! I've been waiting for this vlog.

Best wishes in your new home! You are an inspiration!!!

So excited to see the new apartment, also have a great jul in your new home ❤

I can't wait to see your new home! 🤭🥰 Good luck!! 🍀🏡

Wonderful video, hope you will be happy in your new home xxxxxxxx

Congrats on this new chapter in your life, Benita! Glad to hear that you were able to move before Christmas and New Year, it's very symbolic to celebrate them in a new place :) I was fascinated by the detailed cleaning that you did before moving out - is it a common practice where you live or it was your personal decision to leave the old place in such a neat state? I find it very caring and respectful for those who will be moving in there, and it's a shame we don't have such a practice where I live.

So happy for you! I can’t wait to see your new space.

I've been travelling extensively last few weeks in SEA but when I noticed the title of this video ... tuned in straight away! So happy for you, all the best in your new apartment 🥰 Can't wait for future videos ❤️

Merry Christmas, Benita. Can’t wait to see the next video of your new apartment xx

Great video! I'm not moving any time soon but your video has given me to inspiration I need to organise, declutter and clean! Thank you :)

Brilliant! Well done, Benita. Good luck with your new apartment. Looking forward to see how it goes.

So many beautiful videos made in this apartment but time for new beginnings. I wish you much happiness in your new home and can’t wait to see it! 💫🙌🏻

I can't wait to see your next video of your new home, I'm so happy for you Benita and I wish you happiness in your new place ❤

Qué bien...esperando ver tu nuevo comienzo 👏👏

I wish you much happiness & good health in your new home!! (Mini & Bonus too!!)

Wow! The move is done! Hooray! I am so happy for you! I can't wait to see the new place!

So excited for you. Thank you for sharing with us ❤

Much appreciation for this video!

Good luck on your new adventures 💕

Exciting move!

I’m learning so much from you. Thank you, benita.

Awesome! I checked many times in past days if there would be a new video released! Yay, love this! And really, can't wait a next one :)

I'm so excited for you! It will be so nice to be closer to the people you wanted to see more of! I'm sure the movers were pleased you were a minimalist and not a maximalist! I am excited to see the new space! The layout always looks lovely and you make everything feel so welcoming and bright. 💞

Looks brand new!

On to more adventures! Congrats on the new place Benita!

Congratulations on your move Benita, hopefully you’ll be settled in time for Christmas. Good luck, can’t wait to see the new place ❤

Job well done Benita, your preparations before the move paid off on the day. Enjoy getting to know your new area and your new home.

Finally!! I am so happy for you🧡 Looks like a new chapter, change is so good!! Happy Holidays from Houston

It’s bittersweet watching this video, but I look forward to seeing the new place and how you transform it. You’ve so lovingly cared for your home and it shows. The new owner is lucky to have a beautiful place to call home. Sending you all the best this holiday season!

Wish you well in your move. Hope the cats transition well.

I cant wait to see the new Home

That is a detailed clean, integrity in ownership is wonderful to see. So excited to see this video! Glad we can go on this journey with you!

Congratulations on your new home!

Wish you well in your new condo Benita ❤

I wish you a happy time in your new flat and also a merry christmas and a healthy new year 🙏🥳

Great video. Weirdly, as I was sitting in sea of boxes in my condo (having moved to live closer to my son), last night I was thinking that we are due for a video from you. And I thought that a video on prepping for your move would be great.... It's very considerate of you to clean your place before leaving. And, wow, the place was sparkling, completely ready for the new owners. I did the same, but I moved into what was a "bachelor pad" and was in need of repair, cleaning, and painting. 39 cardboard boxes and some plastic ones - not a lot of stuff; it's obvious that you're a true minimalist! I had 150 boxes (including 40 boxes of books - despite having already gotten rid of 50% of my books - and tons of boxes marked "storage"). We are all somewhere on the minimalist journey. 🙂 I obviously still have lots of attachments to things. I am in a much small place, so that will encourage me to let go of things. I'm really looking forward to seeing your "move in" video. I wish you all the best in your new home closer to your son!

that was lovely, Blessings on your new home. 🙏🙏💗💗🤗🤗🐈🐈🐾🐾❄❄☕☕

Good luck in your new apartment.

Ha en god jul i din nye leilighet, Benita! ✨🎄

How exciting! Here’s wishing you an abundance of happy times in your new home.

Wishing you all the best on your new journey!

The contrast between your move and my last move was something else. :)) I continue to be inspired by you to declutter and plan ahead! It is overwhelming at the moment but I so want the peace of mind that owning less stuff brings. I can't wait to see how you organise and add your special touches to your new place! Thank you for the recommendation of that book as well. I don't really like where I am living right now and keep thinking about where I plan to move to next (but can't for another few years) and that book sounds like it could help.

I loved your old apartment. Can't wait to see how beautiful you make the new one, so happy for you🥰

Great organizational skills for your move, Benita! That was a good tip about the vinegar on the kitchen tap. Blessings to you in your new home! ❤️

You are so well organized! Enjoy your new place for many many years to come and in good health!

Congratulations 🍾 on your move and this new phase in your life!

Oh I loved this video so much Benita! I’m very much looking forward to the new apartment tour!

Congrats Benita!! Enjoy u new place & new life chapter!

You are a great example of cleaning up after yourself especially when moving. Respect the space and the next owner and hope they’ll do the same. Moving is always sentimental and yet exciting. I wish there’s a course on how to fix and update everything for someone who’s single. Happy moving and can’t wait to see your next video from the new place! Happy holiday to you and your family. Xo
