The Impact of Vaastu Shastra on Rental Property Value in India

“Whichever the Modern City or Era you live in India, when it comes to living space we go back to our roots and think of Vaastu irrespective of building or renting a house, flat, apartment, office, etc..”

Vaastu Shastra, the ancient Indian science of architecture and construction, holds the first place in priorities while building houses, offices, even a house of two rooms, and small shops. Vaastu Shastra is known as a set of principles to be followed in constructions but it's more than that. It’s a comprehensive approach to living that harmonizes the environment and people living in it. It also promotes peace, harmony and prosperity. The Vaastu Shastra includes things like design, layout dimension, ground preparations, spatial geometry and whatnot. Nowadays it has expanded its value adding in constructing offices, hospitals, industries, educational institutions, gardens, agricultural farms along with residential buildings. Among the various online platforms To-Let-Globe online property dealing platform provides various options in houses, apartments, and flats built on Vaastu principles and the platform stands unique for its no brokerage policy on property dealing in cities like Lucknow, Ayodhya, Kota and Vellor

In India metropolitan cities like Lucknow as well as corporation level cities hold a major number of tenants who move there for work, education etc. Number of families relocate to big cities for many reasons everyday. There are tenants who will not compromise on luxury as well as Vaastu of the living places such as homes, apartments, and flats. Working professionals spend a major part of their hard-earned money on living space. Along with luxury, comfort, locality, and budget, they also prefer Vaastu of the home. Nobody wants to lose their peace when they come home at the end of the day. Everyone wants peace, harmony and prosperity in the family, and they believe if the principles of Vaastu are followed while constructing the house it will work for the welfare of their family. There are some significant impacts of Vaastu Shastra which play a vital role in bringing more value to rental properties.

One Fine Weekend

GREEN GREEN GRASS IS BACK!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, of course, after a fulfilling trip, I'm here. Hi everyone! Never expect anyone to read this, but here I'm anyway :P

This one is about the one long weekend in spring. The funny thing is, we didn't really plan on going on this trip but Kak Dewo, instead of having a casual birthday dinner with us, went to Norway! The initial plan was, to order some martabak manis, and have the biggest feast, on Kak Dewo (of course). But since he bailed out on us, Kak Panji, Helmi, Kiki, and I went on an impulsive trip to Germany, as per Mba Putri Recommendation.

As per usual, it starts with a chaotic morning (duh?), sticking to the plan is not how we roll. We rent a 5 seated car, which turns out pretty nice. We have unlimited mileage and are ready to go wherever the winds take us :P In the past, we have traveled to a couple of German cities, but it was okay (if not less than okay), then we set the bar REALLY LOW (sorry German). But heeeyy, it's about the journey, not the destination (loll).

We went from Schipol Airport to the southeast to somewhere on the Middle Rhine River stretch. The Netherlands landscape was... flat? As we know, the country is really flat and I can really tell by passing its highway. Not many interesting things in the first 2 hours of the journey. But we had good (and most importantly cheap) (of course fast) food on the way and we are ready to rock this journey hahahahaha. Somewhere near Nijmegen, we slowly foresee interesting landscape features. It starts to bump here and there. Not gonna lie, I really enjoy seeing the landscape once we reach Germany. Keep in mind that at that time, we expect the greatest entertainment will be one of our crappy (and nearly dry) jokes, at least for me it is, the vast green field filled with wind turbines, and yellow flower (that turns out Canola Flower, based on ChatGPT answer) is already an eye candy.

We arrived at the first town rather a little bit late, 5 pm-ish, but luckily it is spring and we were at least have at least 4 hours of sunlight left. We parked around the Alstadt (or the Old Town) and scroll around a little bit. Surprisingly, It looks good. I don't know what's wrong with me but I have written this over and over again at least 4 times as I kept pressing ctrl+z and was unable to do the redo. But it was a fine day, the weather was nice, it was warm, and we wanted some ice cream. We once wanted to sit down under the sun and enjoy our life (and ice cream and probably coffee), but decided to finish our stroll first.

Here, things got a little bit interesting. We arrived at the "esplanade" of the Moselle River, and it was packed with tourists, which we assume European tourists. Aduh karena udah gak sengaja pencet undo berkali2, jadi capek dan gakada tenaga buat ngetik dalam bahasa inggris WKWKWKKW pdhl pengen pake bahasa inggris awalnya. Oke, mari kita lanjut. Tapi jelas saya salfok sama sungainya, bener-bener si nerd satu ini. Tujuan jalan ini kita mau ke confluence point-nya Moselle dan Rhine River. Sebagai mahasiswa Hydraulic Engineering, emang ini kota awalnya diselipin buat jadi salah satu destinasi study tour. sampe-sampe Kak Panji bilang "eh males banget ya kalau gue denger tentang study tour lo" WKWKKWKWKWKWK

makin lama jalan, kok tempatnya makin bagus?????????????? kita bener bener gak expect tempatnya bagus karena di internet jelek banget mohon maaf. Di confluence point ini ada monumen patung segede dosa, yang BAGUS PUWOLLLLLLL. beneran seneng banget liatnya. Ditambah kita gak ada ekspektasi apa-apa jadi makin-makin lah kita hepi.

Flat for Rent in Udaipur: Tenant Investigation

Tenant Investigation

Another important benefit to working with an experienced property manager and buying a turnkey property is the fact that you will not have to worry about looking for referrals from your tenants, which can be difficult and time-consuming. In addition, with vacation rentals, "tenants" are only short-term visitors, so there are no worries or discomfort compared to long-term rentals like single-family units or departments. If you have to find tenants for a long-term lease, take the time to look for background checks and credit checks - in this case, a little prevention is worth more than a slow solution to the problem.

It has been said and believed that one of the top three priorities for any human being is clothes, food and a roof over your head. Sometimes in this fast advancing world to accumulate food and clothes are not difficult enough but the process of finding a proper shelter for yourself and your family is still known as 'House Hunting'. It may not involve literally chasing an animal but sometimes the effort does feel like I have become a primitive man who has returned from a hunt after a day of searching for a home or a flat to live in.

How my hunt for a flat on rent in Jaipur did come to an end?

I have been working for an automotive sector almost my whole life and I was almost in my fifties my company decided to transfer me to Jaipur from Pune for running operations in the newly built production unit in Jaipur. Jaipur has always been known as the 'pink city' of India and has been an iconic historical city. But that is not the only important thing for Jaipur anymore and I understood that much better when I and my family shifted to Jaipur.

One of the prime reasons for me and my family to move to Jaipur was also because my daughter had got the opportunity to study in one of the best institutes for her engineering entrance examinations in Kota. Kota is not far from Jaipur and my daughter could easily visit us on weekends while she stays in Kota.

When I and my family first arrived in Kota, one of my company colleagues helped us to find a temporary flat on rent in Jaipur. The flat was a 2 BHK and yet it felt like a 1BHK as it was too small and compact. We were not even able to unpack all our household goods which we brought with us through transport. I and my wife decided that this was just a temporary place and we will start searching for other flats in Jaipur as soon as we could settle down.

After a month or so I and my wife started looking for a flat on rent in Jaipur which would have a better commute and more space as well as affordable. But this is the time when I realized some other facts about Jaipur which I didn't know until now, some of them are:

Jaipur being the capital city of Rajasthan is one of the fastest-growing cities in India.

With growth, the city also has a rapid increase in population too.

Being a tourist destination it has a huge rush of tourists from different parts of the world and some of the foreign tourists also decide to stay in Jaipur while renting a flat at sky-high prices.

Jaipur is located on the golden quadrilateral and has enormous amounts of traffic coming over from nearby cities of Delhi, Punjab, Gujarat as well as Mumbai.

It has been on the rise of becoming a megacity by 2025 and has a rapidly developing real estate market.

Although some of the points mentioned above would have been beneficial to me like more development in real estate meant more options to choose from and better infrastructure. But the points like foreign tourists renting places meant we would be entertained less by brokers as a foreign tourist would pay more like renters than us as common citizens. The chance of looking for affordable flats in Jaipur was also becoming slim as a megacity meant that prices of real estate would also be sky high and the dense population in the city meant more traffic and pollution.

I started to regret my decision immediately as I thought that maybe I made a mistake by agreeing to transfer to Jaipur as I would have to live in the small flat through my entire term as I would not be able to afford a bigger flat on rent in Jaipur at my expected price.

One fine day, after another month of distress about moving to Jaipur I came across a website recommended by a young colleague of mine who also moved from Gurgaon, Haryana to Jaipur about Housing.com. He is a tech-savvy guy and had shown me his flat which he had rented in one of the posh localities in Jaipur known as Jagatpura at astonishing rates. I had almost freaked out on discovering this magic wand which was weaving properties at such rates. Some 4 BHK properties are as big as 2500 sq. Ft. was offered at 15000 rupees per month of rent. This website was not only meant for a flat on rent in Jaipur but one can also buy flats in Jaipur through Housing.com at astonishing rates.

Some of the steps of searching for properties in Housing.com are: First, you need to visit their website.

Then you have to register on their website through Google or any other email address and that it, now you can start searching for properties of your choice. Some of the amazing features and filters offered by housing.com are just out of this world, like: One of the filters allows choosing the type of listing for your flat i.e. whether you would buy or rent through a broker, owner or developer.

Another feature involves choosing the type of property you are looking for like an Independent house, apartment, plot, studio, duplex, penthouse or villa. Some other filters like the number of bathrooms, the direction of the face of the property, amenities as well as possession type can be chosen as filters in the Housing.com website.

Housing.com changed my perspective about realty websites and helped to find an affordable flat on rent in Jaipur where I can stay with my family in peace and tranquility. One of the amazing features offered by the website before you start looking for flats in Jaipur is that they ask whether you want the property for bachelors, or property near great nightlife spots, great commute spots or properties without brokerage fees or owner flats. Housing.com has helped to solve my real estate problem overnight.

Merry Christmas, @itsjustaphasemomgosh!

I hope your holidays are full of fun and cheer, and that you enjoy this incredibly soft glimpse at Magnus and Alec's future together <3 

Read on AO3

The Sun Envies Your Smile    

"I don't think I've ever seen something so beautiful before, it was - inspiring doesn't even begin to cover it-"

Alec's hands wave ahead of him, mindless of the wind rustling his hair as the portal behind them winks closed. Magnus is smiling enough for his cheeks to ache, but it's a good pain, the best possible - he'd been nervous, understandably so, about showing Alec the land he'd come from, the beauty and that less pretty, all that makes up his past and who he is.

Magnus had never returned with someone he held as close to his heart as he does Alec - it had always been a solitary trip, rare and personal in its nature and melancholy in spirit. It was not a time for blinding grins, but for reflecting on all that has lead him to this point in his life.

He'd visit old friends, local warlocks, all whilst the memories of his earliest years haunted him like impressions pressed against his skin. He'd spend at least three days once home drinking himself into a stupor, to push back the fingerprints of his past that had threatened to bowl him over, all whilst pretending that he was stronger, unaffected and perfectly fine.

None of those memories had resurfaced in the four days they'd been on the various islands that make up Indonesia. After a giddy hop around Europe, Alec had hesitantly asked if Magnus would mind showing him the parts of Indonesia that mean something to him, because he wanted to know everything about Magnus.

Though it's only been eighteen months, there is little about him that Alec doesn't know. Telling someone old stories faded with time, and showing them the very creek your mother used to wash your clothes in, are two very different things - but Magnus had agreed, because it's been a long time since he'd stepped foot on the soil of his birth, and he trusted Alec with it.

Alec is the first person he's ever felt comfortable trusting this with, the only person he'd ever dream of taking here - it wasn't easy to agree, but it was not a decision that Magnus regretted, either.

How could he, when the result is Alec's beautiful smile and the knowledge he's sharing such an important part of himself with somebody else, judgement-free?

Alec stops, suddenly, spinning on the spot. Magnus doesn't flinch, simply watches with fond amusement as Alec's features soften, hazel eyes brimming with emotion he can't keep inside. Alec feels with the strength of a hundred hearts, without the space to keep it from spilling over - he is as open with his feelings as he is his intentions, and it's that honesty in everything he does that prompts such wholesome trust from Magnus' side.

There are very few people Magnus trusts as much as Alec.

He's pondering that, the notion of trust and all that he and Alec have been through, the discomfort and the pain, the tense string of days that felt like their last in a war that didn't seem to end, when Alec's hands slip around his neck, thumbs stroking circles against the nape.

"Thank you," Alec whispers.

Magnus winds his arms around Alec's waist, one hand pressed to the small of Alec's back. "What for?"

Alec shrugs, gaze flickering, though it never leaves Magnus' face. "For taking me here. For showing me the Ragunan Zoo, and the komodo dragons-"

"Which we still can't adopt," Magnus points out, charmed and giddy. "Despite how much you think they would frighten ungrateful Shadowhunters who think they can insult others, including but not limited to the two of us."

Alec rolls his eyes, a huff of laughter escaping despite his best intentions to keep it in. "I know, okay, I gave up on that dream when the big one tried to bite me. That's not what I'm talking about."

Magnus nods, fondness toying at his mouth. The zoo, whilst his idea, had all been for Alec's benefit - his fascination had grown with every animal they saw, his excitement palpable. He'd insistently dragged Magnus forward everytime something new caught his eye, but the komodo dragons had kept his attention the longest - he'd stood there for almost an hour, talking to the zoo employees about the komodo dragons, his grin widening at the knowledge that the dragons were great swimmers, that they've existed for a millenia, can run 13 miles per hour and often reach ten feet in length.

Magnus' personal favourite fact, was that female komodo dragons could reproduce without the help of a male dragon.

Magnus is already planning on taking Alec to Central Park Zoo when they return to New York, although that's not, hopefully, for another week. This vacation is something Magnus has been planning for a long time - Shadowhunters don't really take breaks, and Alec's schedule is certainly less lenient than Magnus', but Magnus was determined, and it all seemed to work out in the end.

Never let it be said that Magnus Bane doesn't put all of his effort into something he puts his mind to.

"Thank you," Alec repeats, hand curving against Magnus' cheek. "For showing me the world you came from, for trusting me with something so important to you. For taking me on a vacation, away from all the stress and worries of our lives - no one has ever done anything quite so considerate for me, before."

Magnus smiles, tiny and gentle. "I would give you anything your heart desires, Alexander, were it in my power. You deserve it all."

Alec shakes his head, disbelief carving a smile, though it seems mostly pointed towards Magnus. "I don't need anything extravagant, Mags, just - you. You're all my heart desires."

Not even nearly two years of being with Alec, is long enough to prepare Magnus for the heart-clenching effect of Alec's wholesome and honest words; he's never met anybody who disturbs the ground he stands on, the way Alec does, who turns everything he knows upside down, forcing him to see from a new perspective.

Much the same, Magnus has encouraged Alec to see the world past what he wants it to be, and rather for what it is - though Alec does take it a step forward, turning to a world he isn't fond of and pushing forth his desire to change it, into a world where everyone fits, happy and comfortable, not compromised in any manner.

The world is not at that place yet, nowhere near it, but Alec's determination is a force of nature that cannot be stopped, and Magnus truthfully sees the world changing before their very eyes in the time that Alec lives and breathes.

For as long as Alec's valiant heart is beating, he'll be striving for a world that does not shun, nor shy - a world that accepts those brought into it for who they are, not how they look, nor the factors around them that do not matter in the grander schemes of things.

"You're a man of wonders, Alexander, and all that I have ever needed." Magnus leans forward, until his forehead is pressed to Alec's, chests bumping for the lack of space between them. "All that came before you was nothing in comparison to the joy you bring into my life. Forever would not be long enough."

Alec hums, pressing a kiss to Magnus' cheek. "Perhaps not, but it would be something."

"I can't believe you rented out this entire resort."

Magnus glances at Alec, sprawled comfortably on his back, on a lounge chair beside an Olympic-size pool, which they'd already taken advantage of a few times. It hadn't been a terribly busy day; they'd portalled to Kota, taken a stroll around Taman Fatahillah, which, Magnus explained to Alec with a hesitant voice, had previously been known as the Batavia City Square. Magnus had illustrated stories with magic that only Alec could see, they'd walked together through market squares, elbows brushing together because holding hands would result in Magnus' arm being wrenched from his shoulder in Alec's hasty excitement.

It seemed that there would never be enough for Alec to see, to take in; he was always scattering from one place to another, gaze darting everywhere to soak in everything that he could, while he could, like this would be the only time that Alec would get to see Jakarta and all its wonders.

Magnus wouldn't mind bringing Alec back, this experience near-enough to cancel out the darker ones which had come before.

"Anything for you, Alexander." Magnus stretches out his legs, toes pointed towards the pool. "And a little, I must admit, for me. This vacation is something we both need."

Alec raises his champagne glass towards Magnus in a salute, grin cheeky and bright. Magnus lifts his own, tipping it towards Alec with care, though nothing could make him feel as light as Alec's palpable happiness.

"I'll drink to that," Alec declares, before leaning over and pecking a sneaky kiss to Magnus' lips, though it's little less than two bumping smiles.

"Such a shameless flirt, you are, Alexander." Magnus winks, abandoning his glass to the table between them. "How improper."

"Why?" Alec sips his own glass, before resting it next to Magnus'. "It's not as though there's anyone here who'll see. You paid the employees handsomely to leave us to our own devices for the night, although I did catch that contract they made you sign - is that normal?"

Magnus shakes his head, in charmed fondness, shifting his legs over until his feet are flat against the floor. "The owner is a warlock, younger than me but far older than you. She takes comfort in contracts, signed with a promise of magic until such time as we leave, so that any damages acquired are insured with a debt that must be paid henceforth."

Magnus waves his hand, casually. "There's hardly anything new about it, darling, it's a process that has been undertaken for centuries. Nothing to worry your pretty little mind about."

He adds the last part, upon noticing the creases forming between Alec's eyes. The sweet man truly cares more than his dear heart can hold, a curse as much as it is a blessing, for such is rare enough in people, let alone Shadowhunters.

Just another reason as to why Magnus never had any hope of barricading his heart at the warmth of Alec's - they were always meant to meet, to join, for their hearts to intertwine.

"I'm not, worried, I just-" Alec closes his eyes, temporarily, breathing in deeply. The hazel of his eyes shine like gems when they open. "I've never been, pampered like this. Nobody has gone to these kind of lengths for me, before, it's - it's still something I'm working on getting used to."

He laughs, soft and a little sheepish. "I'm not sure I ever could, actually."

"I'm more than happy to shower you in affection as long as it takes, and thereafter." Magnus promises, standing from his lounge chair to press a warm kiss to Alec's lips. Alec smiles into it, hands reaching out to grasp carefully at Magnus' hips, fingers brushing the dimples of his bare back.

"You'd really go to those lengths?" Alec asks, pulling back.

Magnus brushes Alec's damp curls back from his forehead, pressing a kiss to his temple, then one to the corner of his eye, the other eye, his nose, both cheeks, before finally brushing against Alec's own lips. "I would go to the ends of the earth, for your happiness, Alexander."

Alec reaches out, hands curling around Magnus' hips. "I have everything I need, right here." He tugs Magnus close, until they're both sprawled on the lounge chair, Magnus' knees trapping Alec's legs, perched carefully on his lap.

"Hi." Magnus whispers, dancing his fingers lightly up Alec's chest.

"Hey," Alec grins, sliding one hand up Magnus' back. "You know, we've seen some beautiful sights, some amazing places but - I think this might be my favourite view of all."

Magnus sighs, brushing his thumb against the curve of Alec's collarbone. Their travels have left him wonderfully tanned, but more than that, smiling brighter than Magnus thinks he's ever seen. Alec looks happy, and free, away from stress and the burden of responsibility that he takes upon his shoulders; he laughs more, makes jokes and actually lets himself enjoy the experience, and all it offers him.

Alec is letting himself have fun, and it's a wonder and a privilege to be present for it, to see Alec's blinding smiles and the lighter way he carries himself, the ease in which he faces each new day with excitement, the stretch of his long form each morning because they have nowhere to be other than in bed, if that is what they so desire.

"I've known artists, whose entire life career revolved around forming beautiful words, and yet you manage to wax poetic without even trying." Magnus sighs, thumb brushing the corner of Alec's smile. "How?"

Alec shrugs, tracing runes against Magnus' back. "I just say what I'm thinking, or feeling - you're the best part of my day. Any day. This vacation has been amazing, but it wouldn't be the same without you."

Magnus drops his head against Alec's shoulder, a low groan rumbling in his chest. "What are you doing to me, Alexander? Are you intentionally trying to kill me?"

"No." Alec kisses Magnus' temple, hands rubbing his back. "That would be rather counterproductive, for the fact that it's your presence that makes my life worth living."

"Alexander," Magnus sobs, hands grasping Alec's shoulders. "You're going to be the death of my immortal life."

Alec shakes his head, fondly, at Magnus' theatrics. "Again, Mags. Rather counterproductive."

He slides his fingers beneath Magnus' chin, lifting it up carefully until their gazes meet. Alec smiles, searching Magnus' face - Magnus isn't sure what he's looking for, but whatever it is seems to charm him enough to light up his entire face.

"You're adorable." Alec whispers, fingers curled around Magnus' cheek. "But I assure you, I am not trying to kill you. I love you, too much for that."

Magnus smiles, tender and sweet. "I love you, too, Alexander. So, very much."

It hurts, a little, the kind of underlying ache that settles into his bones when his thoughts stray too far, because he's never felt this strongly about anyone, and the idea that it could all be taken away from him is like the twist of a blade in his core.

Magnus pushes the intrusive thoughts away, in favour of pulling Alec closer, pressing their matching heartbeats together, just losing themselves in the moment, the warmth of each other and the joy provided by having nothing else to do.

It's a holiday. His thoughts can take a break, too.

Magnus is in the bathroom, humming something that sends warm reverberations through the wall and into Alec's skin, as he goes about his night routine.

They'd shared a shower, once they'd returned from the pool, Magnus murmuring something about conserving water as he pressed lingering kisses across Alec's shoulder - it had been nothing lewd, just a shared experience, soapy kisses and sweet smiles and the charming scent of sandalwood filling the steamed air around them.

Alec had dried himself off, succumbing to the towel Magnus wrapped around his neck and the tender kisses that had been peppered over his face. He'd managed to slip away after a while, promising Magnus that he'd set up champagne and strawberries and anything else they might need, while Magnus gets himself ready - he also put on a black tank, because there is something to be praised about decency.

Alec had already shaved that morning, enough to keep him from looking like a caveman, though a shadow of stubble remains, because Magnus has, in the past, commented on how handsome it makes Alec look - although you always look amazing, darling - and it's not much of a bother for Alec.

He'd do anything to make Magnus happy, absolutely anything.

Preferably for the rest of his life, and perhaps thereafter, if Alec's plans for the night work out the way he hopes.

Alec straightens the angled chairs, lining up the table off to the side - there's a ridiculous amount of space in their room, more than Alec truthfully knows how to face. Magnus had taken to booking entire suites for their holiday, and this suite is so enchantingly beautiful that Alec wouldn't have been surprised if Magnus had of decorated it himself; especially if the considerate amount of gold is any indication.

Of course, even having lived with Magnus for years, Alec isn't exactly used to such glamour; the pillow fort was, unsurprisingly, his idea, but he has a feeling - or perhaps a foolish hope - that Magnus will find it more endearing than anything else.

Besides, Alec wants this night to be special, and significant ... memorable, in more ways than one.

He sets the champagne on the table, next to two glasses, a chilled bottle of water, a bowl of strawberries and another with melted chocolate to dip. It's a little cliche, admittedly, but Alec doesn't see the problem in indulging in some romantic tropes every now and then.

"I was thinking, we could probably stop by New Zealand next week, there are some stunning landscapes there-" Magnus halts barely a step away from the bathroom, just as Alec fixes the oversized gold sheet hanging as the canopy of the fort.

"Alexander?"

Alec stands up, slowly, smiling cautious and giddy. "I thought it might be fun, and a little different. Iz and I used to do it a lot, as kids; it's one of the ways we helped Jace get comfortable when he first arrived at the Institute, and Max when he had a bad dream..."

"It's," Magnus shakes his head, slight and fond, an affectionate smile toying at the corner of his mouth. "One of the nicest, if strangest, things anybody has ever done for me. I'm not sure I've ever even made a, pillow fort - not, sober anyway."

Alec blinks. "You haven't?"

Magnus laughs softly, walking towards Alec with a grace amplified by his crimson silk robe, detailed with intricate flowers in black and gold. "It, apparently, surprises you, but I haven't done everything, Alexander."

He reaches out, thumb smoothing over Alec's cheek. "I'm honoured that I get to experience it first with you, though."

Alec leans into the touch, into the smile that's placed against his own, the joy that's exuding from Magnus and wrapping around him. He pulls back, after a moment, slipping his hand into Magnus', thumb brushing against the edge of Magnus' wrist.

"Care to step into my pillow fort?" Alec asks, unable to cease his grin. "I have the best champagne this side of the southern hemisphere, and strawberries perfectly shaped for dipping in chocolate."

Magnus squeezes Alec's hand. "Sounds fantastic - although, that could be because you're promised to be there, too. Lead the way."

Alec is too endeared to roll his eyes, not even when Magnus discreetly waves his hand, a myriad of actions occurring thereafter; the pillows on the floor multiply significantly, a mountain more than a mound, the overhead lights turning off in favour of floating globes that emit a warm light against the gold canopy, a clashing and colourful patchwork quilt spread against the floor.

"Wasn't that hanging over our couch, before we left?" Alec asks, tugging on Magnus' hand, until they're comfortably situated atop pillows that, to be quite frank, feel like clouds.

"Technicalities." Magnus declares, resting his head against Alec's shoulder.

"How am I supposed to move?" Alec asks, wrapping a hand around Magnus' back, curling fingers against the strap of his robe.

Magnus brushes a kiss against the underside of Alec's chin. "Obviously, you're not." He explains, as though Alec should have known that already. "You're never to leave me because I'm a terribly selfish man who can't stand being without you for even a second."

"How awful," Alec replies, tugging Magnus closer. "The idea of being without you for a second, of course - that is truly awful. I guess we'll just have to be selfish together, then, it's the only solution."

Magnus hums, pressing a kiss to Alec's collarbone. "Unfortunately, sacrifices must be made from time to time."

Alec sighs, thinking of all they've actually had to sacrifice - their relationship, at one point, their happiness another. There were far too many times where they almost lost their lives for the safety of others, for each other, against an enemy without weakness and an army without fear.

It felt like they lost years instead of months to a war that refused to end - until finally, finally, when it felt like all was lost, a flicker of hope returned. It wasn't a lot, a spark of flame from a lighter, barely enough to light the unforeseen path ahead but it was something, and that was better than nothing.

Now, they've made it out, stronger and more importantly, alive. Nobody emerged unscathed, not physically, nor emotionally or mentally, but they made it with their hearts beating and that is something to be grateful for.

It's also something that Alec doesn't want to take for granted.

"You know how-" Alec hopes the beating of his heart isn't audible through his chest. "We discussed, before everything went to hell in a handbasket - the hell part, literally - the things we'd do when we finally got a break?"

Magnus tangles his fingers with Alec's, pressed against Magnus' side. "Hm. We'd take a tour of the world, a year-long trip without a care or a worry about anything but ourselves."

Alec kisses the top of Magnus' head. "We've made some progress on that, I'd say."

Magnus squeezes Alec's hand. "That we have ... oh, you also mentioned something about getting a cat of our own, not just one of the many kittens who gather on the rooftop of the apartment."

Alec's heart stutters. "Because it would be good practice for, having kids. If we can look after a cat, it would teach us the basics, at least, for looking after a child."

"Or so the mundanes claim." Magnus shrugs, shuffling closer to Alec, not that there is much space between them as it is. "I've always wanted kids, but I've never felt comfortable in my own abilities."

"I don't think we need a cat, for that." Alec admits, lifting their joined hands to brush a kiss against the back of Magnus'. "I've seen you around children before - Madzie believes you personally hung the moon, the sun and the stars, and all of her friends want to be adopted by you."

Magnus pulls back, just slightly. "Us." He corrects. "I wouldn't adopt anyone without you."

Alec's gaze trips across Magnus' face, catching the flecks of gold in his unglamoured eyes, the lines at the corners etched from smiling so broadly, holding nothing back, the curve of his cupid's bow, pleasant and endeared.

"You said once that I'm-" Alec swallows past the lump in his throat. "A 'traditional' guy."

Magnus nods, shifting until he's facing Alec, legs folded beneath him. Alec crosses his own, hands wringing in his lap, thumb digging into his palm.

"You were, at the time, engaged to a woman because you didn't believe yourself to be worthy of true love-" Magnus reminds him, softly, reaching out to take Alec's hands in his. "A lot has changed since then. You've changed - we both have. A lot has happened to us."

Alec nods, feeling a ribbon knot itself around his heart. "You were right, though - I am a traditional guy, I've always ... I've always seen myself with a family of my own, one day, and that," He smiles, as Magnus' thumb brushes gently over the back of his hand, calm and reassuring. "That didn't change, when I met you down the altar. If anything, this image I had in my mind got clearer. I had a new, sharper focus, and there was no denying what I wanted."

Magnus' eyes are shining, a second away from spilling tears, but he blinks them back, his attention focused entirely on Alec - who hasn't even gotten to his pinnacle moment yet.

"I don't find myself looking to the future, for a family of my own - because, with you, I have that." Alec is surprised to find his own eyes dry, for the time being at least. "You are my family, and whilst I hope that one day we get to have a cat, or ten, and thirty-something kids if that's what we want, there's a few things that I need to do first. I may be a traditional guy, but it's you who deserves the tradition, the effort."

Alec inhales, deeply, determined to keep his composure until he's said all the words that are knocking against his ribs. "I know we're sitting, I'm not kneeling, and a pillow fort is probably not the place you imagined this happening but - if these past few months have taught me anything, it's that I don't want to take anything for granted."

Magnus parts his mouth, then shuts it again, almost sensing that Alec has more to say, or perhaps not really having anything eloquent himself - an admittedly rare occurrence but not an unforeseen one.

"This vacation has been amazing, and I know I don't have a frame of reference but-" Alec exhales, nipping gently at his bottom lip. "It feels like a honeymoon, to me, it's been one of the best experiences of my life and I just - I realised that I didn't want to wait, if I didn't have to. I want to marry you, Magnus, I want to call you my husband, and be called yours, and be a Bane-Lightwood, or a Lightwood-Bane ... if you want it too, of course."

Magnus pulls away one of his hands, wiping away the tears beneath his eyes that refuse to cease. He's smiling, though, wide and watery, and Alec finds his own smile weakening at the corners, his eyes pricking with unshed emotion.

"I would be honoured," Magnus whispers, caring not for the tears smudging his cheeks, the sticky residue nothing of importance - this is something he's been thinking of, even dreaming of from time to foolish time, but it's never something he's had the chance to experience.

Before Alec, he'd never found anybody who wanted to marry him. Yet, here was this incredible, wonderful and surprising Shadowhunter, huddled beneath a gold canopy - the significance not lost on Magnus - that's serving as a makeshift pillow fort, offering him marriage and a future Magnus never thought himself worthy of.

"I've never had this chance before, you know, but I don't regret it," Magnus isn't surprised, though his words are a realisation to himself. "You are the only one I've ever truly seen a future with - or, rather, the first person I can't see my future without."

"So, it's a yes?" Alec asks, hopeful despite his common sense.

"You haven't properly asked me yet." Magnus replies, aiming for coy but falling instead somewhere positively endeared. "I need a real proposal, Lightwood."

His words would probably have more of an effect if he was fighting back more tears.

Alec straightens, grasping Magnus' cheek with his free hand, fingers curling against the nape. "Magnus Bane," He whispers, heart-fuelled gaze locked with Magnus', corners of his mouth curving in a dizzying, charming smile. "Will you do me, Alexander Lightwood, the most wonderful honour possible, and marry me?"

Magnus leans into the touch, taking a moment to revel in the moment, in the fact that Alec wants a future with him - Alec isn't just different, or special in his own right, he's ... he's the love of Magnus' life.

Alec is offering Magnus a future he never thought he'd get, all with a trademark smile and a love so forceful it's a surprise Magnus is still sitting upright.

"I can't think of anything, in any world, that I would rather than having you as my husband." Magnus wraps his hand around Alec's wrist, thumb stroking the bridge between his pulse and his palm. "The chance to spend the rest of my life with you is a dream turned reality."

"The rest of-" Alec frowns, a tiny crease forming between his eyes.

"Yes, Alexander." Magnus shakes his head, the barest movement conveying a thousand sentiments. "The rest of my life. Our relative situations aside, I know that there will not be anybody after you. You are it for me, angel."

Alec's vision is blurring, cheeks strained with the force of his love-drunk grin, but none of it matters. "You've always been my only one."

They meet in the middle, distance barely a concept between them, lips brushing together, an oasis quenching a desert thirst - though it may feel to them both like a dream, nothing could be truer.

True love cannot be conjured or dreamt - it is something rare, something to be cherished and held close if found.

Despite the odds forced against them, they've found love, safety and home. Together. They don't need a ring to signify that, their hearts shine bright enough without .. but it wouldn't hurt, to have something tangible to celebrate their love.

Something they can look to, when days are long and hardly worth the effort - a reminder, that no matter what may happen, they will always have each other.

A home within a heart, all of their own.

Being an Erasmus Nomad #2: Mencari ‘Rumah’

Prolog: Hello world! Ternyata udah setahun ya berlalu dari tulisan pertamaku di seri “Being an Erasmus Nomad”. Padahal dulu berniat mau banyak sharing soal Erasmus+ supaya makin banyak yang aware dengan beasiswa ini, eh batal karena ke-moody-an ku. Maapkeun. Anyway, tahun ini Indonesia masuk Top 20 Countries dengan jumlah penerima beasiswa Erasmus+ terbanyak loh, HOORAY! Which btw motivates me to continue this #ErasmuStory, so enjoy...

 ---

Bukan, ini bukan ‘rumah’ dengan konotasi ala pujangga yang mengatakan hatimu adalah rumahku. Ini rumah beneran, tapi dikasih tanda kutip karena bentukannya bisa macem-macem. Bisa berupa kosan, dorm, atau apartemen. Why I decided to talk about this? Sebelumnya kan udah ngebahas soal visa, nah salah satu berkas yang wajib ada saat apply visa adalah bukti/kontrak tempat tinggal di negara yang kita tuju. Karena kedutaan ga mau dong kalo kita jadi gelandangan di negara mereka. Tapi, gimana ya nyari dan milih 'rumah’ yang akan ditempati selama beberapa bulan atau bahkan setahun? Padahal, kesana aja belom. Gimana kalo ga sreg? Lebih amit-amit lagi, gimana kalo ketipu?

Lagi-lagi, sebagai seorang Erasmus Nomad, proses mencari ‘rumah’ udah kualami lebih dari sekali. Yang mana, dapetnya emang gampang susah-susah (lah susahnya lebih banyak dong wkwk). Beberapa temenku kadang milih untuk nyari seadanya di awal, ntar pas udah sampai di negara tujuan, baru deh nyari yang beneran sreg di hati. Well, it could be one of your options. Tapi, aku personally kurang suka kalo harus sering pindah-pindah gitu (karena bawaannya segambreng coy!). Makanya dulu juga cuma pernah pacaran sekali, karena males pindah-pindah hati #eh.

Anyway, sebagaimana cerita Drama Visa sebelumnya, let me tell you the stories country by country.

Salzburg, Austria (1)

Kebetulan, waktu itu aku dapet admin program yang baik bangeeeet. Namanya Liesa. Doi yang dari awal bantuin aku dan temen-temenku nyari tempat tinggal di Salzburg. Doi nawarin kami untuk stay di studentenheim aka dorm khusus pelajar dan mahasiswa. Sepengetahuanku, dorm ini bukan milik kampus. Jadi, ada yayasan-yayasan yang nge-handle beberapa dorm yang tersebar di seantero Salzburg.

Dari beberapa pilihan, yang tampilannya oke (based on their website photos) dan harganya terjangkau adalah Europa Kolleg. Lokasinya sih agak ‘pinggiran’, tapi naik bus ke kampus cuma 10 menitan. Liesa pun akhirnya mengusahakan kami untuk dapet kamar di dorm tersebut.

Seharusnya, sebagai mahasiswa internasional, urusan per-dorm-an ini dilakukan via yayasan bernama OEAD. Tapi... di OEAD ini ada biaya registrasinya dan depositonya mahal! Sedangkan, lebih murah kalo kita ngurusnya via Salzburger Studentenwerk, yang sayangnya dikhususkan cuma untuk mahasiswa asli Austria. Untungnyaaaa, Liesa berhasil merayu Studentenwerk untuk bersedia nyediain kamar-kamar buat kami. Down side-nya, kami ga bisa dapet kamar yang private. Harus sharing, sekamar berdua. Terutama karena kami disana cuma sekitar 4 bulanan. Agak sedih sih awalnya, tapi ya udah deh ya terima aja. Mayan bisa lebih ngirit juga HAHAHAH.

Kurang lebih begini penampakan kamarnya (foto diambil dari https://studentenheim.at/)

Fasilitas: Kasur, lemari, meja belajar, rak buku, dapur+kamar mandi dalam.

Harga: Sekitar 270euro per bulan.

Nah, untuk urusan pencarian ‘rumah’ yang pertama ini no drama sih. Ya karena dibantuin banget sama Liesa. Bahkan, saking baiknya, doi juga ngebujuk koordinator program untuk nalangin dulu uang deposito kami! Duh, tau aja deh Liesa kalo kami ini para sobat misqueen lol. Ga hanya itu, doi juga yang ngebeliin segala perintilan semacam bantal, selimut, sprei, alat masak, dan alat bersih-bersih buat kami, luv Liesa <3

Europa Kolleg is one of the best dorm in Salzburg sih menurutku. Walopun lokasinya ga di tengah kota, tapi walking distance dari Hofer (salah satu supermarket termurah di Austria) dan McD! Cocok buat aku yang orangnya introvert merepet individualis, jadi kalo lagi males ngobrol sama roommate atau kepingin fokus belajar, tinggal melipir dah ke McD haha. Deket sama mall juga. Deket sama gym kampus. Pokoknya pas banget untuk mahasiswa. Denger-denger, dapetin kamar disini juga mayan susah. Soalnya pada mau kesitu semua haha.

Tapi... buat para calon pendaftar DCLead, jangan harap bakal semudah ini juga ya. Karena Liesa udah resign, jadi yang dibantuin sebegininya cuma angkatanku doang. Angkatan-angkatan bawah setelahku pada disuruh nyari sendiri semua wkwk.

Brussels, Belgium

Walopun di VUB (kampusku yang di Brussels) juga ada adminnya, tapi kami cuma dikasihin link beberapa opsi akomodasi yang bisa dicoba. Yang intinya, silahkan mencari sendiri (MANDIRI WOY!!! Lol). Salah satunya yang ditawarkan adalah dorm kampus bernama U-Residence. Lokasinya di lingkungan kampus, jadi bener-bener deket, ngesot udah bisa nyampek kelas hehe. Bangunannya juga modern karena waktu itu terhitung baru selesai dibangun. Tapi aku ga buru-buru memutuskan untuk ambil karena ada hal penting banget yang ga disediakan, yaitu KOMPOR. Di dalam kamar cuma ada kulkas dan microwave. Padahal, untuk bisa berhemat sekaligus makan makanan halal yang sesuai dengan lidah Indonesia, ya kudu banget untuk masak. Makanya ketika tahu kalo ga disedian kompor, aku langsung meragu. Ada sih yang nyaranin untuk beli kompor listrik aja, yang harganya juga terjangkau. Tapi, setelah nyari-nyari info, karena kamarnya ga didesain untuk kompor, alarm kebakarannya jadi sering bunyi. Yang akhirnya bikin pengurus gedung jadi marah-marah. Big no sih buatku, daripada ntar diusir ya kan, apalagi kalo lagi goreng terasi atau ikan asin hihi.

Mulai deh aku hunting opsi lainnya. Sampai niat banget bikin pro-cons list buat nentuin mau milih dorm yang mana. Sebenarnya bisa juga sharing flat sama temen. Namun, lagi-lagi, karena aku tipe introvert individualis, aku pingin nyari tempat tinggal yang fully private. Selain itu, aku prefer dorm karena pasti ada pengurusnya. Sehingga kalo ada apa-apa, misalnya ada yang rusak, bisa tinggal manggil, ga perlu rempong sendiri. Terus ada laundry room, jadi kalo mau nyuci baju ga perlu nyari tempat laundry di luar. Mau nyuci baju tengah malem atau dini hari? Bisa banget karena buka 24 jam, asalkan berani aja gelap-gelap sendirian di basement lol. Tarif bulanannya juga udah include semua, termasuk biaya air, listrik, dan internet. So yeah, those could be some of your considerations when choosing a place to stay when studying in Europe ;) 

Dengan berbagai pertimbangan, akhirnya waktu itu aku milih Village Patrimmonia (sekarang namanya ganti jadi 365, go check https://www.365rooms.be/). Dari segi harga, sebenernya pricey. Karena untuk kamar kecil seluas 12 meter persegi, per bulannya aku harus bayar 505 euro (udah setengah dari jatah uang bulanan Erasmus itu woy!!! *nangis). Tapi, menurutku worth it. Dengan rajin masak sendiri, remah-remah uang yang tersisa masih cukup buat menghidupiku kok, bahkan masih bisa traveling wkwk. Cerita perburuan dorm ga berhenti sampai disitu. Walopun udah mutusin milih dorm ini, tantangan selanjutnya adalah milih kamar. Jadi, dorm ini terdiri atas beberapa gedung, yang mana layout kamar masing-masing gedung tuh berbeda, meskipun luasnya sama. Alhasil, lama banget waktu itu milihnya. Berkali-kali ngasih list kamar preferensi ke manajer dormnya untuk minta real photo-nya. Endingnya, aku milih kamar di lantai 4. Di dorm yang tanpa lift. Tapi kuanggep aja kesempatan untuk olahraga tipis-tipis haha. Dan aku ngerasa, pilihanku udah perfect choice banget, karena temen-temenku yang tinggal di dorm yang sama pun akhirnya iri sama kamarku HAHAHAH. Pesan moralnya: Hard work indeed pays off #halah.

Brisbane, Australia

Tantangan pencarian rumah sebagai perantau nomaden terus berlanjut. Saat akan ke Aussie, tantangannya berupa durasi tinggalku yang sangat singkat, cuma 3 bulan. Padahal, student dorm di sana semuanya minta minimal stay-nya selama 6 bulan. Ketika lagi bingung nyari-nyari tempat tinggal, ada temenku yang nawarin buat sharing apartemen. Awalnya aku ragu, karena temenku ini cowok. Tapi aku juga ga punya pilihan lain, karena dari 4 mahasiswa programku yang milih buat ke Aussie, yang cewek emang cuma aku. Apalagi temenku ini non-Muslim, ada sedikit kekhawatiran kalo dia akan sering masak makanan non-Halal. But again, in desperate times, you don’t really have a choice haha. Kebetulan temenku ini emang salah satu temen deketku, kita udah sering travel bareng, dan aku udah cukup tau karakternya doi. Doi pun orangnya bersih banget (bahkan bisa mandi sampai 5x sehari lol!), jadi bakalan terhindar dari drama kzl dengan roommate yang jorok. Juga jarang minum alkohol, so no drunk or hangover drama HAHA. And yeah, at the end, I agree to share an apartment with him.

Nah, yang kemudian repot hunting apartment, ya temenku ini. Aku lebih banyak berleha-leha lol. Setelah berbagai pertimbangan, kita mutusin stay di salah satu apartment di kawasan Fortitude Valley, yang mana kita nyewanya via AirBnB!!! Banyak yang kaget tiap kita ceritain soal ini. Karena kan AirBnB identik dengan nyewa rumah buat liburan doang. Well, it turns out, you can rent for a longer period. Ada beberapa plus-minus sih manfaatin AirBnB untuk nyewa tempat tinggal saat studi. Plusnya, ga perlu bayar deposit yang mahal. Biasanya, kalo lewat jalur ‘normal’, dibutuhin deposit sekitar 1-2x lipat dari tarif bulanan. Di sisi lain, dengan nyewa via AirBnB, kondisi rumahnya saat kita pertama dateng juga ready-to-be-stayed banget. Ibarat hotel kan ya, pasti dirapiin banget sebelum kita dateng. Peralatan rumah tangganya juga lengkap. Sedangkan, kalo kita nyewa dorm/apartment pada umumnya, seringkali kosongan. Cuma ada kasur dan furnitur. Minusnya? Bayar mahal di depan karena harus langsung bayar buat 3 bulan. Bayangin kalo ternyata ga cocok dan pingin pindah, bakalan rugi bandar.

Untungnya, tempat yang kami pilih waktu itu bagussss bangeeet. Sama sekali ga ada niatan pindah. Apartemennya luas. Segala peralatan rumah, dari kebutuhan primer sampai tersier tersedia (ada kursi pijet dan table football segala!). Ownernya juga ramah banget. Pas kita ngelapor ada yang rusak, gercep banget buat benerin. Kebetulan juga, di deket apartemen itu ada toko daging halal dan asian market.

Seems like everything’s good huh? Well, tetep ada ‘tapi’-nya sih. Tiap kali aku cerita kalo stay di kawasan ini ke temen-temen sesama orang Indo yang di sana, pasti mereka bakalan heran. Kenapa? Karena Fortitude Valley itu semacam kawasan night-life nya di Brisbane lol. Di seberang apartemenku aja banyak bar. Tiap weekend, malem-malem pasti rame dengan musik buat joget-joget HAHA. But, I don’t consider this as a downside. Soalnya, aku ga pernah ngerasa terganggu. Justru terbantu ketika awal pertama kali sampai di Brisbane. Waktu itu, pesawatku landing tengah malem. Awalnya, aku berencana untuk stay beberapa jam di bandara dan baru ke apartemen di pagi hari. Tapi karena ternyata bandara Brisbane kecil dan tidak se-comfy Changi (oops), niat itu kubatalkan. Nekat aja jam 1 pagi naik bus ke apartemen, meskipun temenku ditelponin ga kunjung ngangkat (doi udah tidur wkwk). Untungnya, karena jadi pusat night life itu, tengah malem pun masih rame di sekitaran apartemen. Aku pun ga ngerasa takut/khawatir. Begitu nyampe, aku dan temenku malah late-dinner dengan makan McDonalds yang ada di deket apartemen. So, another moral story: Yes, AirBnB could be one of your choices when looking for a place to stay under 6 months (hopefully this platform could survive this pandemic :’)).

Salzburg, Austria (2)

Di postingan sebelumnya, udah kuceritain kalo aku balik lagi ke Austria di masa-masa terakhirku kuliah. Serupa dengan pencarian rumah di Australia, permasalahan yang dihadapi ialah singkatnya durasi tinggalku. Cuma 3 bulanan. Yang tentunya menjadikanku sulit mendapat dorm idaman. Yup, dari berbulan-bulan sebelumnya, aku udah berusaha berkomunikasi dengan Salzburger Studentenwerk demi bisa kembali dapet Europa Kolleg. But as I said earlier, dorm ini adalah incaran banyak mahasiswa, jadi susah banget buat dapet kamar di sana. Akibat masa tinggal yang singkat, aku pun akhirnya ga bisa mendapatkan kamar dengan status sebagai mahasiswa. Meski nyewa lewat yayasan yang sama, tapi kali itu aku baru bisa dapet kamar via layanan guest house mereka (https://guesthouse.at/en/). Jadi, hitungannya bukan per bulan, tapi per hari!!! Lebih mahal? Jelaslah!!! Tapi, setelah kuhitung-hitung, masih on budget. Another down side? Sama kayak nyewa via AirBnB, bayarnya di awal *langsung kuras tabungan.

Karena ga memungkinkan untuk dapet Europa Kolleg, aku pun ditawarin untuk stay di Franz von Salles Kolleg. Gedungnya sebelahan banget sama Europa Kolleg. Jadi secara lokasi, tentu ga ada masalah. Cuma memang gedungnya lebih tua gitu. As I have no better options, yaudah aku setuju untuk ditempatin di sana. Dari sisi estetika kamar, it’s certainly not as good as Europa. Astaga, isi kamarnya tabrak warna banget lol. Lantainya coklat kayu yang motifnya rame, gorden ijo, dapur merah, and worst of the worst, dinding kamar mandinya oren gonjreng dong woy!!!

But, of course, I don’t hate everything about this dorm. Ada beberapa perks yang aku suka juga. Salah satunya, karena aku nyewa sebagai ‘guest’ bukan mahasiswa, kamarku dibersihin setiap seminggu sekali. Seprei dan handuk rutin diganti dan tempat sampah dikosongin. Juga dapet peralatan dapur yang mayan lengkap. Selain itu, ukuran kasurnya juga lebih gede dari kasur single pada umumnya. Cocok buat aku yang kalo tidur ga bisa pose normal. Best of the best, view kamarnya dong!!!

Apalagi kalo pagi-pagi, berkabut gini...

Salah satu kegiatan favoritku semasa tinggal di kamar ini adalah duduk di dekat jendela sambil muterin musik selo yang syahdu. Di antaranya, lagu-lagu Adhitia Sofyan atau Fourtwnty. Terus ngelamun deh ngeliatin pemandangan. Yang kemudian bikin bersyukur, ah betapa indahnya bumi Allah~

So yeah, these were my experiences on looking for homes in Europe and Australia. It was not easy, but give it a lil bit of effort or you might regret it. It will be the place where you spend your time after an exhausting day in campus, so you need to make sure that you will enjoy it ;)
