When we moved here I was excited to get a nice, fully furnished apartment! What better than a free home to live in? Maybe I got my hopes up a little too much.
We stayed in the hotel owned by the president of the team for nearly two weeks. It wasn't bad. It was a basic room with a king sized bed and all the other normal things a hotel has. However, it wasn't like a traditional room you'd find in a US hotel. It was more like something you'd find at a Bed & Breakfast. I didn't mind it so much though cause there was free breakfast in the mornings and a grocery literally across the street. But we were spending too much on eating out being that we couldn't cook any meals so we decided to ask to move out!

When they showed us the apartment available it left A LOT to be desired. My first issue was that it was a 20 minute walk to the nearest grocery store. My second issue was that it was literally one room with ONE full size bed for all three of us to share. It reminded me of a studio you'd find in NYC! No bueno :( We thought about it for a few days, and even though it was away from town, it was only 10 minutes from the gym vs 25 we'd travel from the hotel so we decided to take it.
The apartment is small. When you walk in you see the bathroom that only has a shower (no tub) a closet, then the entrance to the main room. From the main room is the kitchen. It looks like your everyday kitchen except everything is TINY! It is the perfect size for Jayden. His head goes up to the middle of the freezer! LOL, guess they don't shop at Sam's Club and don't require a lot of room to store food like we do back home :)

We live in a building that looks like it could be a house from the outside, however once inside you realize it houses 6 small apartments. They provide one washer and dryer for everyone to use so we have to sign up for times to wash laundry. But... the soap is free, so we can't complain! We live on a street that has a combination of apartments like ours as well as one family homes. The homes are actually fairly large and nice, although not my style!

I can't complain with what we have. It's warm, it's free, and although it is small it has everything that we need.
Everything you need, what cool way to put it. Post some photos of the family, the games, and jay boogs. No uncle!
ReplyDeleteYou got it!! I posted some of the games in my new post. I will do more of the family and Jayden after we find out who is joining us (boy or girl) on Tuesday!
