Back when I was twenty eight years old I shared a place with some twenty seven year old roommate. We two knew each other before we moved in together. No we were not best friends, just friends of friends. And it was through those people we both knew that we landed in the same place. They hooked us up, so to say.
My future roommate was looking for a new person to share her flat with because she didn’t get along with her former roommate anymore. They were arguing all the time. The air just was out. And I was looking for new place to stay because of some similar reasons. I couldn’t stand the sight of my roommates anymore.
So what do you do when you look for a new place, or a new roommate so that you don’t loose your place? You tell your friends that you are looking, you ask them if they know someone, and so on, and so on. In the end a friend of mine gave me her number. Then I send her a message, we set up an appointment and I visited her place, my new home for the first time.
