      Ahh, the ol’ “we don’t have proper heating while living in the north” treatment. Bonus points if all you have is a single radiator and you dry your wet hats and gloves right on top of it.

      Such nostalgia.

    This reminds me of a place I rented in rural FL for a year. 350 square feet. However, I had the Sense to install a curtain so you couldn’t see the person inside of the shower.

    This is actually a pretty nice little space compared to some of what I’ve seen in New York City. At least there’s a door to the toilet.

    The wonky shelving is what really sells it for me. Also, you can wash your vegetables while you wash yourself, so, that’s a winner all around.

      When I lived in Japan, I made friends with a bunch of fellow immigrants who were from China. They all thought it was completely normal to save water by rinsing their vegetables in the toilet.

      I love Chinese food, and they can be some great people, but never again will I eat inside the home of a person who learned to home cook in China.

    Man, looking through that user’s other properties, it’s just depressing.
    Nice looking family rooms and homes, reduced to bedsits and studios.

    The rent on that is more than my mortgage on a 4 bedroom Victorian terrace with 2 bathrooms and a garden.

    I kept going back in confusion. There’s the microwave and sink - no stove or flat-top or anything. There’s the shower. What’s behind the door nº 2? The depth of that space is maybe 70 cm, the standard depth of the kitchen furniture is 60 cm and the shower is a bit deeper, it seems. The width seems about the same. If that’s a toilet, you wouldn’t be able to close the door after yourself. There’s no wardrobe in that room, only that small dresser. If there’s a cupboard, what’s the pooping situation? Waffle stomp day and night? Is that a toilet with a rod for coat hangers above?

    Washing machine available? What does that mean? The choice between mini fridge or washing machine? Preserve food or wear clean clothes, make your choice!

      I’m assuming the cupboard next to the shower contains the khazi, with the throne facing the shower. You’d be able to sit, at a suitable straining angle but unless you’re short standing for a piss is going to be a problem. I guess the washing machine is in a communal area somewhere in the building.
