Our new casa

We have finally moved into Chermside, the 4.5 star luxury apartments that Graham and Judi, our friends, have become managers of. Yesterday was a busy day bring their stuff over and unpacking everything. At night, while they went for the last carload, Neil and I arranged their furniture in the living room and lit candles. Their apartment is on the 7th floor, overlooking the mountains in the distance, so it was such a romantic view with the sun low, and the candles lighting the place up while light wind was blowing from the huge sliding doors. Needless to say they were pleasantly surprised.

We all sat down after a long days work in their lovely leather sofas and had a glass of wine. They said that they thought that they are helping us by giving us a place to live but really, they have realized that God put us in their path to help them. It was such a nice thing to say to us, considering that they are letting us stay there for free.

I could have never imagined that we'd be here almost 10 weeks and still no job because we are waiting for the Visa. But I know that this all fits in God's big plan and it's really awesome to see what kind of people he has blessed us with. Our life here would have a completely different story if not for them.
