Flat Sharing

It is now over one year ago that we had an apartment. Right now we spend most of the time in Stephan´s apartment - Michaela´s brother. From time to time he gives us a shelter for over a year now. By now it is almost a flat sharing community. It is pretty cozy in this 60 square meter 2 bedroom apartment (1 bedroom, 1 living room, 1 kitchen, 1 bathroom). So he better watches out if we are ever leaving again as we kind of like it. Well, he might need to change the couch in the living room - the one we sleep on since a couple of weeks and we fear we are getting severe back injuries after a while.

And of course there are downsides in community when you want to change it to a normal life. Take this for example, Michaela and I going out till late and even if we try hard not to make much noise, we usually wake up Stephan. This poor guy...

And even I have to suffer from time to time. It can happen that both `Baeren` (Stephan & Michaela) turn on Abba music early in the morning and try to sing loudly along. And that is not even all. Last time I was sitting at the kitchen table, accepted the fact that it was Abba-time when I realized that there was someone dancing in checked PJs in the kitchen. It was Stephan who wanted to take revenge for the late night breach of his peace with this strange performance.

Well, after dining together, playing games or watching DVD everything is fine.

Those joyful moments we will take with us when we are going to leave at one point - the couch? - No way! And of course thanks a million to Stephan our fantastic host!
