Temporary Apartment

Just after Travis returned from Esmeraldas we moved into this apartment on the second floor of this building. We were asked by the owners of our old house to move as their son was getting married and they were giving him and his fiance the house as their gift. So we were desperate to find somewhere to live and that was near the kids new school. After talking with Bolo and Jenny, they remembered a friend who owned an apartment one block from the kids school. We were hoping to buy a home here and only needed something temporary while we waited for the paperwork to go through and this friend was willing to rent out the apartment for two months. It was a great apartment, a bit outdated and had a few water problems but otherwise a great temporary place while we waited for our house to go through. Unfortunately, we were unable to buy the house and needed to look for something else after the two months we lived in this temporary apartment. But as something temporary we were very lucky that Bolo and Jenny had some connections for us and the friend was willing to rent for such a short time.
