House Hunters International Season 40 Episode 9 Marked for Maastricht

In this episode of House Hunters International, titled "Marked for Maastricht," viewers are introduced to expat couple Michael and Celine. Michael is a self-employed consultant in the tech industry, and Celine is a homemaker. The couple, originally from France, is relocating to Maastricht in the Netherlands for Michael's work.

As the episode begins, Michael and Celine discuss their budget and their must-haves for their new home. They are looking for a two-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment with a budget of around 1,500 euros per month. Their top priority is a location close to Michael's office in the city center.

Their first viewing is a modern, spacious apartment in a brand new building. The apartment is fully furnished and has two bedrooms and one bathroom, as well as a large living area and a balcony. The apartment is located in the city's popular Wyck neighborhood, which is close to Michael's office. The couple loves the apartment's modern design and its convenient location, but they are hesitant about the price, which is at the upper end of their budget.

The second apartment they view is located in the city center, near the historic Vrijthof square. This apartment is also fully furnished, with two bedrooms, one bathroom, and a large living area. The apartment is located in a historic building, which gives it a lot of character. Michael and Celine love the apartment's location and its charm, but they are concerned about its size, as it is a bit smaller than they were hoping for.

Their third viewing takes them to an apartment complex located on the outskirts of the city center. This apartment is also two bedrooms and one bathroom, but it is unfurnished. The complex has a gym and other amenities, which appeals to both Michael and Celine. However, they worry that the location is too far from Michael's office, and they are hesitant to have to furnish the apartment themselves.

Overall, Michael and Celine have a difficult decision to make, as each of the apartments they viewed has its own unique advantages and disadvantages. Will they choose a modern apartment in a convenient location, a charming historic apartment in the heart of the city, or a spacious, unfurnished apartment with amenities?
