Okay, okay, so it's not definite yet. But after MONTHS of searching, Bjorn finally found an available apartment in Veldhoven...in his sister's building!!
Okay, let me explain. This apartment is PERFECT. Obviously the same layout as Ester's, which is why I'm so happy. The building is new, and I think it's beautiful. Modern style, safe neighborhood, within walking distance of their parents' house, and I've visited Ester so often at her place that I naturally picture our future apartment like hers.
Little did I know it might actually BE like hers!
Two-bedroom, 1 bath (but 2 parts - shower and sink in one room and toilet in another - which is standard for Europe I think), spacious kitchen, living room, big, airy windows. It's right by two bus stops and a market I'm familiar with, and I can visit both Ester and their parents if Bjorn is ever gone away on a business trip and I'm lonely.
I just love it. And I had always wished we could live in the same building, but as it was new, most of the tenants had just recently moved in and there were no openings.
Until today!
We should hear back within 2 weeks whether Bjorn gets it or not, and if we do, he can move in as soon as July 1st. I'm so excited. It means more to me than I first realized to be really close (physically) to Ester, especially. I can pop right downstairs and have company.
So fingers (and toes) crossed!! :)
