We love our new house. It's spacious enough for all of us plus extra guests, but it's not too big that you can't possibly maintain it without a battalion of help. It's also in a quiet neighborhood, not far from Big Girl's school(but then most places in Brunei are quiet and it only takes 20 minutes to go anywhere in the city).
We were looking at several houses that are within the company's housing budget and we instantly took this house as soon as we found it. Some houses were so huge! Mr. Big thinks that we probably only think this way because we got used to the small apartments in Korea. He's probably right, but really, who needs 8 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms when you have 2 small children who still like to sleep with you sometimes? Plus, some of them looked really old, and the interiors were too ornate for our style. Elaborate ceiling paintings, velvet curtains, Baroque furniture...Nah...I don't have Imeldific delusions of grandeur. We wanted a house that is nice, homey, and comfortable and most importantly, child-friendly.
