I was gonna write up a post about our house search on Sunday, and about the clash of cultures between Jodi and myself. But then I decided it's not a topic for this weblog, so let's just say that at one point she joked with the real estate agent that I 享受贫穷, "relish destitution".

In the end we settled on a nice two-bedroom apartment in just south Zhongshan Park itself: nice neighborhood, convenient to public transportation, and close to friends. It was a little pricier than we expected, but that is OK.
