New house, the first cooking

 

I moved to a new house from the 1st of April!

 

I had been quite stressed out with moving house for the past few weeks but finally I am settle down!

Now I am living with an owner couple.

They are really really nice to me.

 

 

Renting a room is very expensive in Singapore so it is very very difficult for foreigners to rent a whole flat and live alone. So most of us either team up and rent a flat together as housemates or rent a bed room and live with its owners.

 

Ever since I moved to Singapore, housing has been a huge concern for me.

When I was a student in Melbourne, I could easily find housemates through my university friends. But I found it diffucult when I am working in Singapore. I don't know many people here and my colleagues are either locals or already have a place to live.  Even if I find a friend whom I want to move in together, it is diffucult becuase his or her contract ends at different times from yours.

 

 

But now, I am very happy with my new place!

I am happy that I have the owner couple living together with me.

Now I even think that it might be better than living alone because it is nicer to have someone to greet to when you come home! :)

 

 

So the photo is today's dinner.

Mabo tofu, ohitashi, honey cherry tomatoes and rice.

My first cooking in the new house!

 

 

Tomorrow is friday!

I shall explore around the new house over the weekend!

My colleagues said that there were lots of nice places to eat :)
