Because finding a place to live isn't easy!

Finding an apartment is never an easy task- let alone trying to find an apartment outside of my locality. Luckily, I've come across a useful tool that not only lets me narrow down my state and city preferences, but also enables me to compare all of the apartment candidates I am willing to consider side by side. Not only this, but it lets me compare several states altogether, which makes it easier for me to see what my options are, where, and what is most convenient for my lifestyle and goals.

Amongst numerous candidates, I've found one particular apartment that suits me and what I am looking for.

This beautiful apartment in Denver, CO is not only within fair distance from school, but it offers a variety of amenities that make student life easier (and more bearable, really). Amongst all the stress and chaos that takes place in a semester, it's nice to have everything you need in one place. This apartment, called the Axis At Nine Mile Station is walking distance from public transportation, which makes it easier to, you know, actually get to class, let alone on time. When I need some me-time, I can walk on over to the sports court, or have some friends over and make use of the grilling barbecues in order to celebrate passing that exam by a hairline (We all have our close calls!). Another benefit, I have to say, is the ample closet space. Being a girl, I have a lot of clothing and shoes, and this makes it easier for me to keep them organized. Additionally, It gives me room to hide those passed-by-a-hairline exams!

My favourite part, however, is the beautiful view I have of the mountains. Nothing is more grounding than seeing such natural beauties right in front of you, it's magical, it's breathtaking and that, my friends, is about 80% of the reason I would like to relocate to Denver, CO. The city will always be a a part of me and I don't want to leave that behind. Having access to these mountains and other pieces of nature that encompass the city at such an accessible and convenient distance is absolutely amazing. Denver is the perfect mix; the wine and cheese, the hydrogen and oxygen that is both necessary and delicious.

The big city is where I grew up, thus will always remain a part of me. Lately I've been getting an itch to move away to study; broaden my horizons and experiences to elsewhere than where I've been my entire life without leaving the big city feel behind. At the same time, I would love to be in a place laden with natural splendour, somewhere with less city smells, less concrete and more grass to lay on and watch the clouds go by. Don't get me wrong, I love the city, love the thrill of crossing a busy boulevard and as fond as I am about the smell of gasoline at 8:00AM, I wouldn't mind an afternoon hike or a beautiful view to satisfy my hankering for a natural encounter.

This is why I have chosen the Axis Nine Mile apartment; it's got everything I could want. The only thing that could make it better would be it having a library. It would be awfully convenient to have such easy access to books those nights where I need to get away from homework or have some time to kill. Additionally, I would love for it to have a rock climbing wall, seeing as it is a sport I regularly practice, but with those wonderful mountains and raw climbing destinations so close by it's not so bad. Overall, however, it is a wonderful find I am quite fond of.
