This room benefitted from two added walls, one for soundproofing on the wall shared with our neighbors, the other created a corridor like “lab”. This is the room I slept in, on foam mats on the floor, in November of 2003 on the very first trip to the flat.

After that first trip our local builder not only replaced the window, but also removed the “lab corridor” wall – you can see there’s still a hatch through to the “kitchen” (back bedroom). That left a pretty rough room, but one that was usable for the April 2004 trip.

From there it was decorating. To this day I’m not really sure why I picked blue again, given how much there was already in the house, but there you go. We’ll redecorate it one of these trips.
