I have to smile regarding what is going on right now in the apartment. I recall posts being made about Leora not have any friends visit her, or have anyone to talk to. She now has a friend visiting ( although with the addition of her name, as an occupant ), suggests it may be a longer stay. The same posts commented that she had no one to talk to.
It is obvious Leora has missed her, in person, conversations. Albeit, a bit one sided.
This apartment, regardless of what changes evolve with the additional person, will not suit everyone, as the changes made as a result of Leora's move to Prague has not.
It is an individuals preference if they enjoy what has/is happening. There are options, we the viewer have.
