Moving House

The universlty has moved all the foreign teachers to a newly refurbished building. I moved today. Well, I am still in my old flat using the internet since the new one doesn’t have ADSL yet.

The speed at which the moving company operated was blinding. They had 3 or 4 removal guys and also some students to help out. In around 3 minutes, everything was gone from my apartment! The thing that struck me most was the way they transported the fridge! One guy lifted it onto another guy’s back and he carried it down the stairs like a tortoise with a big shell on his back:



Maybe it wasn’t so bad when moving my fridge. just 1 flight of stairs from my old apartment to the ground floor and my new apartment is on the ground floor so no climbing. I do know that 2 teachers moved from the 6th floor in the old building to the 6th floor in the new one! They removal guy must have been wrecked!

Anyway, the new apartments are quite nice. There is also a restaurant on the ground floor, which looks quite good. It has tablecloths, which puts it above the places I usually eat in!
