apartment searchin'

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Sydney, 2000.03.10

We may have found an apartment. I wandered over to a neighbourhood on the 'lower north shore' called Kirribilli, and talked to DJ at James Milson Real Estate. She showed us a couple of places, and we've applied.

We've seen so many terrible places that cost an arm and a leg that it's nice to find something livable. By "terrible places" I'll try to paint a picture in as few words as possible: cramped, unclean, poorly laid out, and .. cockroaches. Several apartments had more cockroaches than I'd ever seen in 28 years in Canada.
