Secretly Keeping: We Bought a House in The Netherlands

So this is something I am not yet open about. Probably after a month, I can finally post this. :)

We are living in The Netherlands for a couple of months now. Staying in a rented house with my inlaws (two families) is not such a bad thing. But of course, there is stuff that we want to do freely, like for example, having our private time together.

When I arrived end of last year, we already started looking for a house. We are not really very particular. We just want a shade above our heads. Apartment, house, we don't actually mind, as long as there's something we can call our own. We have been living as nomads for quite some time. Sadly, we did not find any success in the past months. The house market in The Netherlands went so crazy that even the locals keep on complaining about the bidding process and all this stuff. In the area where we really want to live (somewhere near Amsterdam) is so impossible to find something that suits our budget. And because it's only my husband who is working at the moment (well, even if I will work, the salary will not be included in the price that we can borrow from the bank because I only have a resident permit).
