I have been looking at some apartments today. In fact I looked at 7 apartments which is all of the time that I will have before I go to Frankfurt tomorrow. There are 2 apartments I really want, 2 apartments that were okay if the first 2 were not available, and the remaining 3 were uninspiring to the point where I would rather rent longer than pay for those apartments.

I love my apartment that I have now, but I want to own and not rent. And it is unfair to my existing landlord to continue to ask for 2 months extensions. He needs some assurance of continued income.

But at any rate, I suspect that one way or another, my housing situation will resolve successfully by the end of the month. This will be my first apartment and first major purchase. I am excited. 🙂
