Thanks to Tsvetan who made severals calls for me (thank you so much!), I will see two apartments in Sliven this Sunday. He was calling on my behalf not because I was afraid of a phone, but mainly because Bulgarian people, in addition to being rude very often, don’t speak English and unfortunately my Bulgarian skills are still low (maybe I should pay more attention to the teacher:).
So in the game are:
1) Flat which was offered me by a coordinator from the high school I’m going to teach in. It’s quite old with a „kitchen“, 2 in 1 room (living room with a bedroom) and a balcony. The most important thing about it is the price, it costs 150 euro per month, which is a bit expensive for Sliven area. I could get for this price much bigger or modern one. I told her that I would take this place some weeks ago but now people keep telling me how expensive it is, so I started to look for some other options.
2) And suddenly I saw it – shared flat for 30 euro per bed. Incredible! After Tsvetan’s call, it showed up that there’s only one room for students, in the others live „baba“ (meaning „grandma“ in Bulgarian). So I can share the flat with an old lady and pay for both beds and have my own room. I’m in fact introvert, I like to be on my own. My boyfriends says I’m asocial, which I don’t think it is true :) Anyway, living with baba can be either perfect or a nightmare.
She can be either the good and nice baba or saving money baba. Good and nice baba would talk to me in Bulgarian (so I would master in this shitty language), she would let me use her kitchen and other equipment (I’m bit worried about how old everything will be there), maybe she could bake a cake sometimes for me....If she’s going to be an oposite, she would try to save as much money as possible and make my life miserable. (Notebooks „eat“ a lot of energy).
3) The last one was found through a reality agent. It’s brand new with a washing machine I know how to use (in contrast to that one in flat no.1) :)) There hasn‘t been living anyone yet. Well, I think I will like this flat the best, since it’s new and I like modern and nice furniture. But it’s 125 euro per month and I would have to pay 60 euro to the agency. I would definitely spend some more money on accesories. So, the same price category as flat no.1.
Well, let’s what happen on Sunday :)
