Villa/ flat sharing in AD?
 
Hi,

I was wondering if there are any websites where I can see adverts on accomodation sharing in AD. I am planning to share for a while, the prices seem to go down and there is no point in rushing to get a villa / apartment right now and pay top prices.

Any suggestions?

BR,

Paul

supermarkets noticeboards, www.dubizzle.com, be careful though technically sharing is illegal :)

Actually, it is not necessarily illegal. Unless you are of different genders, of course.

I was thinking of you yesterday, when I was in Spinneys (Khalidya). There were quite a few flat shares offered on their notice board.

The notice board is changed every Monday, so if you don't get anything before then, go on Monday early.

Oh, good to know :)

I am learning all the tricks step by step, taxis are driving me mad at the moment, the bloody drivers don't know anything, they expect me to pay and also show them the route to the destination... :thumbdown:
