I live in a small maisonette. The people directly opposite of me in the next apartment are Indian.
Now I love all cultures and im a massive foodie, but their cooking smells are so constant and pungent that it’s starting to leak into my apartment and my life.
I can’t bring people round because as soon as they walk through the shared front door before my front door, it’s like slapping them in the face with garlic or onions.
They leave their own front door open to vent when they cook rather than using an extractor fan or their windows, it seems.
I’ve spoken to their landlord and my landlord and the most they can come up with is to see if their extractor fan is broken. I’ve also tried kindly talking to them and they were very apologetic but a week later it’s back to the same thing again.
Also I’m the only one here who has purchased this apartment everyone else is renting. So I can’t exactly move out easily.
