I have been living here since 7th of May. It is a self contained apartment with one bedroom, kitchen/sitting room and toilet. It has got most of the things one would need to use for living, except a proper kettle for hot water and coffee. Apart from that, everything else is fine and very lovely for a homeless.
It's a lovely Saturday today, I am sitting at the widow side listening to the music from my iPhone. Sunlight is so precious in Ireland and I am grateful for that at the moment.
I have to sincerely thank Eric, this Hong Kong guy who rent this apartment to me and so the backpacker has a shelter. Eric, who owns this restaurant downstairs has been living in Ireland for more than 20 years. He has married an Irish women and they have 4 children if I didn't receive the wrong information. I saw him saying hello to me in the street when I just come down to this town a few days later. I haven't seen him for awhile as I busy at work and visiting places nearby. It was until about one and a half month ago when I get bored and started visiting his restaurant during my day off, we become more familiar to each other then.
Eric is as nice as Carmen describes. When I rang him and asked him about the apartment he said its not a problem straight away without any consideration. It is a huge gratitude for a homeless if who is given a place to stay. I gave him 100 euro but I knew I owe him more than that.
I will be here until 22nd of May. I should enjoy the rest of my days here as this is almost the ideal living environment which I have been looking for.
