Home Sweet Home













Finally, with two contracts signed, we could begin looking for an apartment that would be convenient for both of us. We did some looking on the internet and made some phone calls... but nothing was really happening there... Then, we followed up a lead from Jacqui's coworker. We met an insane woman named Miss Lee, who could speak English quite well... although obviously crazy... she would end up being our landlord....yikes. She showed us a beautiful 3rd floor apartment (3 balconies, kitchen, 2 huge bedrooms, 1 big office, 2 bathrooms, rooftop hangout, free gym, underground parking, 24 hour surveillance, internet, fully furnished, utilities included, department store right around the corner, right in the middle of the city)... this was the first real apartment that we had seen... but we we're still living in a hotel.... and sometimes you can just tell a good deal when you see it. We signed the contract and moved in the very next day. Almost forgot, all inclusive rent = less than 500 CDN per month.

Gotta love that Taiwan!

Nice Pad, Guys. What an awesome adventure you must be having. Nice to see some of that old wanderlust that this family used to have is alive and well. Congrats on the jobs and the new pad.
