I really shouldn't allow myself to succumb to HGTV.
ETA: the only pass I've given so far is to the Jamaican-born guy who lived in DC and was transferring to Amsterdam. He literally couldn't fit comfortably in the bathroom at one place.

Oh my goodness, yes! My significant other and I always watch this show and get SO MAD at the people who look for a place that's just like home. My favorite ones are when people move to a country like China, they want to live in the middle of a major city like Hong Kong, they have very little money and are then surprised that they're basically living in a small box. And then there are the complaints about how there's no oven! Ugh. Do you really think people in China need an oven? Look at their food!
I would be happy living in a box if it meant I could be in an amazing place halfway around the world. Who needs a perfect apartment when you can go out and explore a foreign country?!
Oh, and don't even get me started on the people who are in warm, tropical places with great outdoor spaces who complain about the size of the bedrooms…
