Home is where...

Now that we are moving back to Cochin, this time when we went home, we set out on a home hunting venture. We took the help of my Mother's friend and her husband. I had no idea how to go about this hunting business. But uncle said that the best place to inquire are the local 'petti kada', ie. tiny temporary shops where they usually sell tea, betel leaves, cigarettes etc. At the very first shop where we started our hunting, the shop keeper turned our attention towards a relatively new flat complex. So we went there and presto, we found our Flat! Just like that! The power of betel shop owners! It is a 2BHK flat with Rs.7000/- rent which is very reasonable in Cochin. Personally, I preferred Villas or houses. But the rent is around the range Rs. 18000/- to 25000/-. Whoops! Cant afford that! Hehehe..... Hmmm. Someday...

Anyway, the flat is on the 5th Floor and is small and comfy. With TWO balconies!!! One in Kitchen! Yay! Yay! Yay!

I love, love, love..............

The kitchen is with lots of cupboards and woody tiles on the floor and faces west with a full balcony! That means, the room will be sunlit all day around! And the view is amazing! I am in love with this flat! The second balcony is in the drawing cum dining room. I want to put my dining table near the balcony, so that we can have dinner every night with a side dish of amazing scenery!




Aaaand this flat is only 1 Km away from my work place. That means I can sleep till 6.30 every morning and then rush to work at 6.45 AM!!! No more waking up at 4 O' cock for me!!!

Oh and did I mention that we are the very first tenants of this Unit? Lucky or what?   

A view from the top of the building. If u have 20/20 night vision and amazing ability to analyse and discern facts from crappy pics, you will see that you can catch a glimpse of refinary, fertilizer plant and my office in these pictures. But only if u know what to look for! Good Luck with that!



Cant wait to move into almost-my flat. If only my Bossman would relieve me from my post at the earliest. Sigh! Oh well. You know what they say.... Live in Hope and...
