So, I think I may have found a place to live. I am not entirely ready to stop looking just yet, but I saw a place Thursday that I really like. It is about a 30 minute train ride from work (but that means that I am also 30 minutes closer to London). It's in a cute, residential area that is situated between two major towns - so I am never too far from interesting things, but still feel safe walking home at night. The woman that lives there now is really cool. She is a healthcare worker, here for two years from Finland. I think we could really get along.
I am trying to convince myself that, even with everything that is going on (work permit extension, qualifying teacher status, moving, etc), I should try and travel on my half-term break. There's a six day backpackers tour of Scotland (same company I used when I went to Wales) and I'd really like to go! I am torn between getting settled here and seeing more of the countryside... Of course, I have a feeling I know what I will choose in the end... Isn't TRAVEL the reason I came to this country?!?
