MOVING IN NEW YORK CITY! packing my studio apartment & empty nyc apartment tour *chaotic*

[@anakirola9204]

Congrats 🎊 It’s so cool that you get to have more space and be with friends! Bennett’s going to have zoomies up and down that long hallway 😂

[@karin9373]

Your new place looks amazing! I hope Emily is the third roommate 🤔 and I just can’t believe how chilled you are about packing stuff when the movers arrive the next day 😂 next vlog….now please!

[@lisaleidenheimer3507]

Yeah I think Emily is the third roommate too ever since she posted the first video about moving I thought it was with Emily. I definitely wouldn't be that chill about moving but that's just me.

[@cxnoelle_1220]

as someone who’s lived with roommates and alone i definitely understand the appeal and comfort of living with roommates, especially if they’re friends. living alone can be pretty lonely

[@eerinoneil]

Ahh I’m so excited to follow along for this moving series!!

[@alexiseldredge]

yay!!!

[@courtenayguillory9005]

Oh My…it breaks my heart that folks would criticize your decision on moving…. It’s beyond ridiculous! How on earth is it affecting their world? You continue to live your fabulous life and disregard the negativity…. We have a saying here in the south…”Ugly is as ugly does”! Look it up Beautiful! I’m thrilled to death for your new adventure… LIVE IT TO THE FULLEST!!!! Hugs

[@sarahb3606]

At one point I shouted "she's packed NOTHING!" 😂so it was quite stressful to watch (I can relate as a fellow procrastinator) but aside from that I am so excited for you and this next room mate filled chapter.

[@sbear6798]

Wishing you luck and happiness; PLEASE make certain you and your roommates have window screens in place at all times for Bennett's safety🙏🙏 Or only open windows from ceiling level down . I live in NYC and too many horror stories that could have easily been prevented.

[@Cherurei1109]

I’m so excited for you! This is such a wonderful and probably necessary change for you 😊 Wishing you all the positivity for your new journey in the city! 🎉🎉🎉

[@alexiseldredge]

thank you!! ❤️

[@AbigailMarie97]

I was stressed watching you pack! So much work but I love how calm/ positive you were. Excited to watch you decorate your new place

[@maricor4791]

I am such an introvert, Id never want room mates. But seems like you thrive with people Is that the case?

[@BethMJones]

I’m overwhelmed seeing you overwhelmed & not packed yet lol. I pack weeks in advance and label boxes on the outside with Sharpies -what’s in them, what room it goes to. Your new place looks so nice & much bigger. Poor Bennett -why is all our stuff leaving? 😂 I hope you love your new apartment. Change is hard but exciting to move! Congrats!

[@Bardish]

Alexis there are two important moments of human life (and I don't mean marriage and having kids) it is the first time you have your own dishwasher and laundry machine. Congratz with the move!

[@_bebeboudeur_]

can confirm, proud laundry machine owner and can't wait for the day i get a dishwasher :')

[@sweettreatsyt]

Ahh I’m so excited to follow along for this moving series!!😊

[@alexiseldredge]

❤️

[@orchid51551]

Gas leak is scary, glad you got that fixed. Good you found that out before moving in! Congratulations on your new apartment!

[@BelleMuchLove]

So happy for you! Zach seems so kind and a great roommate ✨✨✨

[@courtneychristian2258]

Anyone happy for Bennett so he has more space to roam around 🥰

[@rebekah7671]

I am SO happy for you! I lived by myself for four years and transitioned back to flatmates and I personally loved the experience. So happy you have found what makes you happy :)

[@dissuade81]

Get a carbon monoxide detector!!!

[@kaylamatters]

Omg now that you’ve moved from the studio I can finally say I’m pretty sure after watching for so long I was able to gather you lived mere streets away from my old studio apartment on the UWS. I was like !!! Twins! Sending good vibes and popping champagne bottles for the new move! ❤

[@TheUltimateGC]

Hello Alexis. I rarely follow this type of content or comment but I came across your channel maybe about a year ago after moving into my own studio apartment and I’ll casually put your videos on while looking for tips or inspiration when it comes to studio apartment stuff. Overall it’s been an interesting journey watching you share parts of your life and I just wanted to say the previous video showed a lot of vulnerability and maturity and it really connected with me. But also wanted to say congratulations on the new place. I completely understand when you say it’s not easy living alone at times and a small space definitely isn’t for everyone. It’s nice to see you excited and change is definitely a good thing. Wishing you nothing but the best. P.S. you are adorable.

[@narmeenkarzoun8568]

I’m m Oo

[@clareking4434]

Honestly I spent the last 30 minutes shouting advice at you 😂😂. Been in your position so many times, it’s a nightmare. Can’t wait to see you settle into the next episode of your journey x

[@nadia_business8299]

So excited for this new chapter! Sending you all the love in the world 🫶🏽

[@pricilla2076]

You never realize how much stuff you have until it's time to move!!!

[@bellemathews4088]

Wishing you so much happiness and a clean start with your new place and your roommates! Making this change will do wonders for you in 2024, I can just feel it ❤

[@cokedclassic7627]

For all of those being critical. She works from home and lives alone in a studio. That is rough on a lot of people. People who are well adjusted but need more connection on a daily basis. I love coming to the office 2 days a week and i have a husband at home and live in a house with a yard. Lay off. It makes you look like really crappy people

[@sueleeg3215]

It's too bad you have had so many issues in your studio. I'm very happy for you with this move and excited for the new adventure.

[@steffney]

I feel this so much, I lived alone for 3 years and was so ready to live with someone again because honestly it gets lonely after a while 😄

[@ToRung]

Wish you success on the path you have chosen🌹💝

[@Lexijungle]

Life is about what makes YOU happy. And I’m so excited for you Alexis - so happy that you’re happy and excited lol. Stay focused on that happiness- literally NOTHING else matters. Cheers to new beginnings!!!!!! ❤🎉

[@ruthharris6783]

I’m going to take a wild guess the 2nd roommate is Emily. 😊 She is out of town; needs an apartment and posted on her vlog about filling out an apartment application. On your Q&A vlog I posted if you and Emily would ever move in together. It would be freaky if it is true. Hahaha

[@alenemarie1726]

You being so calm about moving is stressing me out ahaha

[@JustSheik]

I wasn’t part of the other moving series so I’m happy to be a part of this one.😊

[@CuddleMonstar]

Those IKEA bags are a moving lifesaver! Love the moving vlogs!

[@megandurkee4940]

Congratulations on the move. Do what makes you feel best. You said it yourself, for you having roommates is a better thing. I’m glad you’re happy. 🎉

[@maureenmccurry9482]

After living with roommates and then living alone, I could never live with roommates ever again! I wish you luck but I think you’re making a mistake.

[@Seolhwaneul]

How I wish I can be as extroverted and calm before moving as you are 😂

[@silvinhabruno]

This is so exciting. But I have a feeling you are not gonna live in UWS anymore and I loooooove to see the neighbourhood in your videos cus it's my favorite. I'll definitely miss it so much if you move to some other area. Still, can wait for the moving vlog, the decor vlogs... yayyyyy for the new era

[@clairemarkovic1847]

new here! II started to watch your videos recently because I'm moving to NYC from Montreal next month and I'm THRILLED to see a new moving series from you! We're also looking for 3bdms, so I'm glad to witness what the market looks like right now. Other than the apartment hunt, I find your videos to be very comforting. Cheers !

[@nanetticat]

Wow, that's so exciting! So happy for you, that you found that apartment🎉

[@alexiseldredge]

❤️❤️❤️

[@margaretorden7568]

I’m watching this after the moving day video. Congratulations on your new place. You and Bennett will love having more space. I’ve moved many times and helped friends and family too. A friend had an actual gas leak when she moved to her new place so I’m glad yours was a false alarm. I can recommend having two boxes, one for cleaning supplies and the other for snacks and drinks. Also pack a bag like you’re going away for the weekend with clean clothes, toiletries etc. I’m looking forward to seeing your new place!

[@Ravens_9]

Got my own 3 years ago. The comfort is undoubtedly undisputable. 🐼

[@hilsbeasley539]

Wow, surprising and exciting times! I'll miss seeing the studio apartment, I thought it was really cute but onwards and upwards! Looking forward to seeing you settle in your new place. xxx

[@heidijohnson2656]

Watching this is so stressful!

[@ruthharris6783]

Bennett, you are going to have more windows to look out. 😊 Zach, another Wagner college alumni. ❤

[@lisaleidenheimer3507]

I bet the roommate that is out of town is Emily

[@parkerrose3590]

I moved to 7 apartments in the past 11 years. Three different states. It sucks!!!! I'm having anxiety watching you!!! I'm very happy for you. I was worried about you being alone all the time. Will you have a washer and dryer in the building?

[@MARVINSBACKYARDGARAGE]

Although I do ❤ your old apartment! I'm excited for your new one!!

[@itsthequeenfatima]

This series has me wishing I lived in NYC! Watching from Paris ❤❤❤

[@kristisiggers8068]

You had me stressing girl. 2 am and still had pics on the wall and knick knacks lying around.

[@JiwandasSingh]

The segment when maggi took over for her vlogging debut was just hilarious 😂😂😂 loved that part the most all the best for your future 🎉.

[@laurenrossman8005]

I mean this in the nicest way possible… you not having half your apartment packed at 2 am the night before was literally so stressful

[@racheliannucci4720]

I was having anxiety just watching you pack! OMG....I hate moving😒

[@PHREYDUM40]

It's gonna be a thrilling Thanksgiving!

[@gloriacheng9140]

Ngl this vlog stressed me out

[@victoriaadams2171]

Saving money 💰

[@kathygaber3801]

I am excited for you, nice that you just switch gears and it's your decision. I wish you much luck.😊

[@RebeccaABeaudoin]

Not that it matters from a stranger, but proud of you

[@CaitlinJessicaS]

Oh my word so exciting 🎉 Maggie literally seems like the sweetest person. Please tell her she just radiates joy❤ You seem much lighter after making the choice to move. Like less is weighing you down. Keen for the next years worth of decorating your room vlogs😂

[@karolinezz]

Wow wow wow ! Its going to be extremely exiciting ❤❤❤

[@alexiseldredge]

❤️❤️❤️

[@lauraelisee]

Literally so excited! This feels like the next right step in your journey. Congrats! Xx ❤

[@LSChestersMom]

Sooo happy for you! I loved your little place.... but I also know that it will be wonderful !

[@Life_with_iih]

This moving series sounds like it is gonna be great to watch! I am happy that you found a new place to live in and some roommates 😀

[@parkerrose3590]

Pets are so smart. They know something is up!

[@Tdaddysmooth]

I appreciate the way you take someone that stressful as moving and are making it into a great business opportunity. 😊

[@mansoor3159]

My comfort youtuber Alexis🥺🥺🥺💗💗

[@alexiseldredge]

❤️

[@BelleMuchLove]

Same ❤

[@ervinsmoviecorner8748]

Happy weekend, Alexis!❤

[@ruthharris6783]

Seems like deja vue. Lol. Back where I started. Have to admit I will miss your 250 square foot place. What it lacked i space it made up with style. Minus the crooked shower and non working stove. Onward and upward from here.

[@alexiseldredge]

❤️❤️❤️

[@sarahrichards649]

I can’t believe you lived with a broken stove for so long! New apartment is going to be great 😊

[@judyandersen8447]

Love your moving series. Excited for you.

[@sarak.1454]

❤

[@_bebeboudeur_]

love uprooting our lives just for the pure chaos 😌that ensues i always reuse my old boxes cause i'm so used to moving, my family just keep boxes from previous moves (recycling pros) me seeing the zipped ikea bags when i've always used trash bags to keep my clothes safe : ooh she fancy!

[@jessicakuma]

ahhh so excited for this next chapter! so happy for u 🎉❤

[@mhcmhco]

i love the jazz

[@antoniobrasse7157]

I feel like you keep moving lol. I'm actually going to be looking to head back to Manhattan from Queens in a few months, but I want my high floor/penthouse type unit in a doorman building with views of bridges and the skyline. I just can't do something else as a native new yorker lol.

[@marccolomayt82094]

Happy for you Alexis and nice empty apartment!❤❤

[@kurlykaitlyn]

I really don’t like moving!! I prépare with boxes like a few weeks or month ahead. Then pack some books. Don’t prepare or pack anything else, And then i basically have one or two days to move out 😂 it’s a nightmare!! But congrats on your new space’ that definitely is the reward!

[@andreakoehl2399]

Good fun! Your apt sucked I kept saying she should move. Bugs and backed up plumbing! thumbs down! Can’t wait to see your new digs!

[@maryjaneknab4051]

New recipe for you. Ground chicken browned and broken up in small pieces, 1 jar pizza sauce, garlic salt, pepper, burger rolls. Add sauce to ground chicken spread on burger buns and top with mozzarella cheese. Put them under broiler and keep a close watch until the cheese is melted and a little brown. I also toast the buns before putting meat on them. Keeps them from getting soggy 😁❤️enjoy

[@gailm1122]

OMG I couldn't wait for your video today! And I can't wait for ....OMG do we have to wait until Tuesday???!!!!!

[@Cheddah45]

First.

[@alexiseldredge]

❤️

[@susan5978]

the support of living with people is awesome I love this for u

[@halsievlogs]

Also - I love that you got to have the experience of living alone and now want to live with friends. You will have your whole life to live with a partner (if that’s what you choose) and this could be the last chance to live with friends. I love that for you and am so happy that you’re making the best choice for you in this era of your life! ❤

[@geek-jenn]

I’m looking for a place in NYC and actually saw your old place listed and was like “why does this look familiar?” Congrats on the new apartment. Could not do roommates again but glad you are excited.

[@stephanienelson5055]

I used piece of cake also when I moved. That was like 1 1/2 yrs ago! I moved out of NYC, they are hard workers!!

[@hiMadelynne]

10:03 Anyone else enjoy the alliteration of Maggie/Mantle & Bailey/Bookshelf? I can only imagine that was accidental but I loved it 🥰

[@stephanies.4636]

This was so unexpected but I love a moving vlog. I hope and think your other roommate is Emily. I kind of knew she was getting a new living situation. Yours was a little out of the blue. I'm very happy for you because you are so happy and excited. Can't wait to see all the organizing and decorating vlogs

[@sailorallie9046]

"She's small but she's sweet" - not me thinking you were talking about your roommate LOL

[@rosecat5638]

Lol on the “our apartment was nowhere to be found in the database”, I once had a similar problem. Moved into an apartment and went to set up electric and they couldn’t fine it either, turns out address was listed as a 1/2 on a lot of stuff but some places don’t recognize that and only recognize apt A, B, etc. then our zip code was listed different by the post office then our lease.

[@benjaminwagner8141]

This is so awesome. It's funny how you and another KZbin moved at same time. Both yall are based in New York. I feel the pain about being lonely. I've lived almost two years on my own and said I'd never go back to having a roommate but I'm considering it

[@tinkerbell9196]

Girl lol 😂you were still going at 2am and not finished I can’t wait to watch the rest of this series!!! Your studio was so adorable and very New York but excited to see what you do with the new one and hopefully it will be one of the best adventures for you

[@JaneLove-yf8on]

do you know the measuring tape trick? there is a measurement on the tape housing that tells you how wide it is so you can butt the casing against the wall to measure and you just add the housing measurement to the length you are measuring? does that make sense? like you don't need to bend the tape into the wall?

[@richardottley4611]

that's life.. its so unexpected.. and when you have that gut feeling that you have to do something.. like moving from a place of residence even though the lease hasn't ended yet, trust your gut..

[@janshaw4636]

wishing you lots of good vibes for your new place, cant wait to see what you do with your room and an apt tour maybe?. hope Bennett will be happy with some new friends and a bigger space xx

[@Simplylakesha]

I can hardly wait for the next vlog! Super excited for you, does the other roommates have pets? Thank goodness they are putting in a new stove. ❤

[@BelleMuchLove]

And I admire you! I’ve been watching all your videos….👑👸🏼🌃🌆Love NY🌃🌆🩵✨

[@tcrispi2003]

Can’t wait to see you all settled! I feel so excited for you 😂 and I don’t even know you! Feels like this will be perfect for you!

[@debracox9277]

growing up, i lived across the street from an elementary and jr High school. when i was married to my ex husband, we lived behind an elementary school (shared fence). While it is loud, crazy traffic at drop off and pick up times, I find that sound so comforting and homey. but I totally understand the annoyance!

[@Simplyryanne]

I’m so excited for you, congrats on the new apartment! (The noises outside would drive me crazy lol)

[@mommysaver71]

Congratulations on the new apartment. Looking forward to this new chapter in your life.

[@suzydolan6723]

Roommates…..not easy after living alone…it will be an adjustment.

[@LuisaTona]

Congratulations on the move! So excited to see all the new content in this amazing new place ❤
