Jan 26th Australia Day

This is the day that we (Shinko and I) signed the contract for our new apartment at 'The Hallmark'. Being a first home buyer, and not knowing who to trust it was very nerve-wracking. Thank goodness for Shinko being there to calm me down.

Just 20 minutes walk to the city, and sandwiched between the Botanical Gardens and Albert Park lake, this South Melbourne apartment block was completed in 2006. It is by no means a big apartment, but for our current requirements, it is the perfect size and location.

Time to hustle up the money and look for a home loan.
