We fly today to the next stop on Pat's Teaching Tour --- Zhengzhou. The apartment provided by the university has been a funky home but will now be vacant. Neither the building nor this unit are owned by the u, so if it's not occupied it's For Rent. I haven't written an ad for a while, but it might go like this....
FURNISHED ONE BEDROOM APARTMENT. Approx. 550 sq. ft. Three-piece bathroom about 5 feet by 5 feet. Galley-style kitchen with fridge, bottled water, microwave, water kettle, hot plate. Washing machine. Lots of cabinet space. Sitting room has office table and leather couch, 22"flatscreen TV with cable. Bedroom has slab mattress Queen size, European-style heavy wood bureau, dresser, shelves.

Full Disclosure: 5th floor walkup, NO elevator. Hot water in shower ONLY. Internet subject to Chinese blocks and censors. Dim light. No recycling facilities. Dense smog obliterates view most days Cable TV has 1 English channel of 35.Spotlights from construction cranes glare in evenings. 220 volt electricity, if you touch a live wire you die. Only 1 chair, no dining table.Pets allowed but if they stray they may get eaten by the old guy on the 3rd.
In my old Toronto Beach neighbourhood, this place would go for $1200-$1500 a month! How much in your town?
