Current location: London, England
Living conditions: Lamisi has lived in her ground floor, one-bedroom apartment since she first started residency. She’s well aware at this point she could probably upgrade a bit now that she’s managed to pay off some of her student loans - somewhere where the flooring above her isn’t constantly creeking, or her windows don’t leak everytime it rains - but it falls low on the priority list, and Lamisi hasn’t been bothered. She keeps her living space relatively tidy - her kitchen table tends to be the area of what she calls ‘organized chaos’, sprawled with various papers and her laptop charging. But she rarely leaves clothing lying about or dishes in the sink, finding it’s a bit depressing to come home to a messy apartment after a long shift.
