But it's true that different places have vernacular peculiarities in constructions and style...<br /><br />Good luck!Marie-Èvehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00174894872050076618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8264158595683111355.post-28015307085005582412010-04-29T21:41:11.698-04:002010-04-29T21:41:11.698-04:00Aww, it sucks that you guys didn't get #4.

But I can imagine being in your situation and wanting to know where "home" was going to be asap!<br /><br />We had the sucky MB-out-of-country (well, city) right when we moved. In fact, he had to fly out the DAY we got the keys to the apartment, and didn't come home until a month after I had been living there alone. Definitely not ideal. But we're super happy now, as I'm sure you guys will be soon!!<br /><br />Sending positive home-finding thoughts your way. :)Kim L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02834503373303340119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8264158595683111355.post-1719938150120060632010-04-29T14:55:59.877-04:002010-04-29T14:55:59.877-04:00@Olivia- Thanks for the encouragement.

But perhaps I can focus on how efficient it is to have a bathroom so close-by to the table we usually work and eat at. :) But yeah, far from ideal, in my opinion...Adventures Along The Wayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11338336369653930101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8264158595683111355.post-75869157560886609762010-04-29T10:35:01.915-04:002010-04-29T10:35:01.915-04:00that's the yuckiest thing i've read in awh...that's the yuckiest thing i've read in awhile.<br /><br />at least you can toast a bagel while you poo?lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00379596904318935981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8264158595683111355.post-27741815809292985382010-04-29T00:46:03.304-04:002010-04-29T00:46:03.304-04:00You're not alone, I've definitely had the ...You're not alone, I've definitely had the washroom in the kitchen issue in Montreal. I did also live in several apartments without that issue, so have hope! <br /><br />I agree, most places aren't posted more than a month out, at least in Montreal. <br /><br />Good luck!Oliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18361291538358633691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8264158595683111355.post-8366957281596191212010-04-28T23:42:57.306-04:002010-04-28T23:42:57.306-04:00Oh, good.

At least there is still hope...<br /><br />And by the bathroom in the kitchen thing, I mean that the bathroom door entry is in the kitchen area. When I take 3 steps from our kitchen table, I am standing by the toilet. Our Montréal apartment is like this, S's mom's is the same, and most of the ones I have seen thus far in apartment searches are also like this. Maybe I fell through the Québec rabbit hole where bathrooms are in kitchens???Adventures Along The Wayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11338336369653930101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8264158595683111355.post-675756161549163532010-04-28T22:49:19.029-04:002010-04-28T22:49:19.029-04:00Oh man, I'm sorry you're having such a har...Oh man, I'm sorry you're having such a hard time finding a place, but I have to admit that I have NO idea what you are talking about re: bathrooms in the kitchen! Is this really a Quebec thing, because I'm not sure I've ever seen it? Our bathroom is right across the hall from our kitchen...<br /><br />In any case if Quebec City is anything like Montreal, you are MEGA-early in your apartment hunting--most places advertize with less than a month's notice. So stressed as I'm sure you are (apartment-hunting sucks at the best of times) you have PLENTY of time and likely the listings won't become plentiful until late May at the earliest. You'll find something!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
