While we're not the Apartment Prepper blog, we have somewhat recently moved into a studio flat here in the UK, giving us a lot more insight into the world of prepping from an apartment. Going from prepping in a 5 bedroom house in Canada to prepping in a small studio flat was a choice we made to avoid having to have a mortgage. The transition from being in such a large space to being in a small one ...
Douk-Douk Traditional Slip Joint Pocket Knife Review

We’re Mortgage Free – The Ultimate Prepper Investment
When Thomas and I moved to the U.K. roughly 6 months back, our utmost priority was buying our own place. There are many things about renting that bother me - from not being able to make permanent alterations to the space you're living, to feeling like you'd be wasting money if you improved what's around you, and finally, the sense that your rent is a bit of a waste of money in the first place ...
