Homeless in South Africa

Did we have a party? Did we come home to late? Did we refuse to feed the cat? Did we break something?
What did we do?

Absolutely NOTHING.
Mis-communication is a hell of a word.

So here's what happened...

*My roomates brother came over.
*We asked the landlord if he could sleep over
*He said yes
*The next day (Saturday evening) he said, this arrangement is not working out..
*Brrr, we say we will look for a place
*Sunday we went to work
*Monday morning before work, the landlord says he wants us out by that night
*We email, call people about prospective appartments. We see one, and take it one time
*We pack our stuff and stay the night by someone from our host organisation Sci-Bono
*We move into our new place the next day after work
A HECTIC STRESS FILLED WEEK.

I still believe we did nothing wrong.

Imagine finding out that you must leave a place within not even 24 but 12 hours..... Damnnn

We got a place, a little bit closer to work (so less money on transport). However its a little more expensive (World Cup here). It is also quite ideal for the two of us as it is fully furnished with everything we need and we do not have to share with a landlord. Its just the both of us and it works for us.

So to all of yall who started off worried. DON'T BE
