“She lives rent-free at the South Pole…” 🧊 While New Yorkers pay $1,400 for a shoebox, this TikTok user transformed a windowless dorm room in Antarctica into a cozy haven — fairy lights, mirror, art, and all 💡💖 But wait until you hear why there are no windows — full story in the article below 👇
A TikTok user named Antwuhnet works at the South Pole, helping scientists with their research in extreme conditions. She lives in a small room in a dorm-style building, but her cozy setup quickly caught the attention of her followers.
Even though her space is small, she managed to make it feel like home. Inside her room, she fit a bed, a desk, a chair, and a closet. What really made it special, though, were the little touches: a large wall mirror, some drawings, and soft fairy lights strung up on the walls. These details turned a plain room into a warm and inviting space.
There are no windows in her room, and that’s for a reason. At the South Pole, temperatures can drop below -70 degrees Celsius, so large windows just wouldn’t work.
The room is provided by her workplace, so she doesn’t have to pay rent. This fact made some TikTok users a little jealous. “In New York, a room like that would cost $1,400 a month,” one person joked in the comments.
Others got creative with their humor. One person said, “This has to be Santa’s secret assistant,” and another teased, “Blink twice if you’re being forced to make toys.”
Even though she lives in one of the coldest places on Earth, Antwuhnet found a way to stay comfortable and happy—and that inspired many viewers.
