Having my own bathroom with a bath sold Juliet's place to me before I even came.
Juliet's place is modern, quiet, close to the beach, local shops and public transport (i.e. bus approx. 1 hour to the city).
I swam nearly every day.
I made friends with the local community straight away and ended up meeting up with them few Sunday mornings for a swim/coffee/lunch.
The easy going and relaxing beach lifestyle balanced my long hours at work schedule perfectly.
