So, my apartment is confirmed!!
It is, as I had hoped/expected, a LeoPalace. This means that it comes furnished and internet-ready. This particular one is 18 minutes walk from the train station and comes with high-security prison style locking gates (which I guarantee I will somehow find myself locked outside at some point). It is located in Naka-ku, the most densely populated district in Hamamatsu - the one with the castle!
I have been adjusting to the realisation that I will be living in Hamamatsu city, and have found a lot of beautiful links, which I thought I would share with you.

That is all for now. Very exciting - I fly a week tomorrow!!!!
Nice place. My girlfriend stays around that area. I can imagine we will all be walking in the same direction after a nights partying!
