I Live in an Abandoned School

I LIVE IN AN ABANDONED SCHOOL WITH VID AND PIX BY SHANNON PICKETT This musician has revealed how she lives in an abandoned school, giving all the details from how it works to a full room tour! The 28-year-old from Sheffield, UK, has stunned social media after sharing pictures and videos showing that there are still full-on classrooms in her house. Zayla Ren gave followers a full 'classroom tour,' showing how she has transformed a disused classroom into a cozy and unconventional home. She said: “This is the corner of my room. Everything’s not that tidy, so bear with me, but it’s still like being decorated and stuff.” Zayla showed off her uniquely personal setup, complete with soft toys, musical instruments, and a 'Hannah Montana wardrobe' for her clothes. The former classroom now doubles as her bedroom, dressing area, and studio. She even has her own private bathroom and a small kitchen setup. Zayla explained that her home is part of a guardianship which is a legal arrangement where people live in unused buildings to keep them secure and maintained. Zayla’s school is far from empty. The creative community around her includes other guardians, many of them musicians and artists who have also made the old classrooms their own. She said: "It's a massive room, like massive room just for me. It’s great. “I have my little teddies, my little table, my guitar. This is like my get-ready space. “I’ve got my fridge, my kitchen and stuff. It’s normally a little bit tidier than this, but it’s been one of those weeks. “Basically, they’re big buildings in the UK, like hospitals, schools, warehouses that aren’t being used anymore. “They need people to look after them, so they don’t get trespassers and stuff. “A few of my friends lived here for a very long time, loads of musicians and stuff, which is pretty cool. “I needed somewhere to live, and space became available here. "I got offered it, and I moved in because it was perfect for me at the time.” ENDS
