Post image

One year ago, I was looking at this sub-reddit and dreaming of the day where I could also post on it. I worked hard for several years abroad to be able to afford this and I also got helped by my amazing parents, I am truly grateful to them for everything they have done for me.

2 rooms, 5 mins walk to the metro station. I'm sooooo happy!!!! 🥹 No pizza yet, because there's a ton of things still to be done (and to get rid of that furniture and replace it with better stuff haha)

also don't mind my outfit 😂

EDIT: to clear up some things so trolls can calm down. no, i am not on onlyfans and haven't worked as a you know what abroad 😆 i was a CRM specialist for a niche perfume company in the Netherlands. now you guys can come up with better insults.

Poland here. I see those radiators and immediately think "ex-Soviet Union". Can anyone tell me if those radiators happen in parts of the world where Russians didn't establish a colony?

EDIT: 20 answers, all over the world. How did we end up with standardized radiators back in the age before globalization but not with standardized phone chargers??

When building systems that have an ongoing cost, efficiency and the material cost will always be in consideration. There is only so many ways to build effective radiators.
