Move in is the next few weeks. I've lived on my "own" (roommate I never interacted with) for a couple months my last semester of college, but that was a temporary setup whereas I'm hopefully moving out for good this time.

Bear in mind that the place has window/wall A/C and electric heating.

Things I'm already considering:

  • Drain guard
  • Bidet
  • Cold brew coffee maker
  • Rice cooker
  • Space heater? I'd like to keep the temp largely down during the winter to save money while warming up the part of the place I'm in
  • Key for washer/dryer

Things I already have:

  • Most furniture
  • Air fryer
  • Seltzer water thingy
  • Meal prep containers

General advice is also welcome!

Depends on the work you want to put and how much you travel. Jade plants, aloe and other succulents take almost nothing. Water 'em like once a month. I'm a big fan of ferns, pretty low effort and they can grow to what ever size you let them.

Really most plants are pretty easy if you have them in the right soil and pots. Most only need watered weekly, if that, and will stay healthy with no maintenance.
