Hi all!

This feels a bit silly to introduce myself on a T-forum, when I don't even have my own beauty yet.
But anyway, I fell in love with tarantulas few years ago, but since I wasn't sure what I'm going to do later, I decided to postpone the purchasing. Also, my mom hates Ts, so it was better to not buy one when I wasn't sure if I'm going to live at my parents for a while after finishing my Bachelors - My decision was a good one, because now I'm doing my MSc degree abroad and my landlords don't allow any pets.

I decided to register on the forum to be able to watch pictures and videos, and read important information and advice from active hobbyists. I'm sure that this will help me in summer / autumn 2017, when I finally should be able to get my very own 8-legged friend. :)

Welcome. and a tarantula is the perfect pet to have somewhere they dont "allow" pets. u can just stick their enclosure in a closet or something if u need to put it outta sight and they take up hardly any room at all....just sayin. :)

@Enn49 - Thanks :) I've read through quite many topics already, and keep stressing and being giddy about molts.
@Entity - Haha, well that's true. But this room is rather cold, and I'd also need to send the T to Finland after graduating here. So in the end it's just easier to wait :p
