I arrived on 29th September, 3 weeks ago, and I checked into The Clan House. A nice place with nice people but unfortunately above a Goth disco that blasts out music until the early hours. Still, I will forget the disco before I forget the friendliness ... Read more >

Three weeks now and after spending them in decent but cramped hotels I am about to move into an apartment for 3 months. A luxurious apartment. I'm happy here and I hope to be happier
