Nothing at all but it seems he's doing all the work and she's reaping all the benefits.

So.....?

While the couple was being transferred from Serbia to Belgium due to the husband's job, I did not get the feeling the wife did not intend to work. Wasn't she the one who worked all over the world?

I would have taken (in a heart beat) that quirky, center city apartment before I chose life in the suburbs.

Lila, Leuven is a little further away from Bruges than Brussels is. Not super far - a little over an hour, but not nearby. :-)

You're right, it's a bit farther from Brussels. My intent got lost in the translation ! : )

Point taken. :-) And I agree with you on living in the heart of it all.

As I remember they weren't married and she made no mention of looking for a job. Had that been the case she would have mentioned that when they discussed which apartment to rent.

I saw her as a user and didn't get the impression she was that fond of him.

Lana McCoy has always dreamed of living abroad. Her husband Chris wanted the American Dream. After a fateful test trip to Africa, Chris saw the light and took a job with an international company to make his wife's dream come true. But about a year into living in Serbia, Chris's company wants him to move to Belgium. Lana's leaping at the chance to explore, but Chris has reservations about starting over - again. He wants a rustic home close to work, and she wants modern living in the heart of Bruges. Now, they'll have to find a middle ground when House Hunters International seeks a sweet spot in Bruges, Belgium.

You are entitled to your opinion just as I am entitled to mine.

It appears I remembered incorrectly. I still I found her unlikeable.
