A FLAT!

Well, it looks like we found a flat, for real this time! The location is absolutely perfect: two minutes walk south and you're at the sea, and two minutes north you're in the centre of one of the funkier shopping/eating districts, the North Laines. So great. Also, the rent is only £500, bills included. We're going to pay twice as much for a bedroom in Brighton than our three bedroom flat in Taipei, but it will be well worth it. In addition, the guy who owns the flat is a gay; could be a problem, I heard that gays are shit roommates. Check out the video of the flat he kindly shot for us. Our bedroom will be the big one, thankfully.

Yes, the flat is in need of a major decoration overhaul. I'm prepared to put in some hard labour to get the rooms up to a suitable living condition as long as he's ready to buy supplies. And gin!

Ed. note: We've removed the video due to privacy concerns. Anyone wishing to view the video may request so via email. Thanks!

Sweet! The place looks really great with plenty of potential. He might be a pretty cool roommate given he made that nice little video for you and that he's totally willing to give up his room...

Cody! This looks just like the flat my wonderful friend friend lived in when I lived in England. except she had just a bed sit, thats right, just that front bedroom was all she had and a joint bathroom with some smelly man. At least you get the whole front to back! cute little "patio" out the back there. Please get on the redecorating. It looks like the walls are infested with mold!
