Home Sweet Home

Our House. We're on the ground floor. That's our gate to the left.
We get to buzz people in and everything!

Front patio with little garden.

View from the front door.

to the left- 3rd bedroom, small bath and kitchen
to the right-living room, full bath and master bedroom (our room)
straight ahead-exit to back patio, roommate's bedroom

Living room. Notice the couch, loveseat, and 3 armchairs.
You need lots of seating because strict Muslims will sit only by their spouse or by themselves.
I caught my roommate, Brooke, reading.

This is a pretty regular thing here to have a shower head coming out from the wall. All the floors have drains. Luckily, this is our second bath so we never use this shower.

Our kitchen. We have fruits and veggies scattered everywhere drying. It's a process to have everything washed the right way so we can can eat it.

* we have these blinds in all our rooms. They are FANTASTIC, when you roll them all the way down they block out all light. I wonder where I can find them back home?


Full bathroom. Notice the Sponge Bob Square Pants bathmat? It's the most decent one we could find.

Our room. Just off the full bath. "Pretty dang exciting, hu?"

Not bad, not bad. I expected a lot worse. It looks very liveable.

For some reason, these photos make me crave an Andes Mint. Or a mojito. Or a tic tac.....

looks pretty darn decent! the outside's really cute. sponge bob was really the best you could do? as opposed to what? looney tunes? in that case, you made the right choice! And who wouldn't want to shower off whilst taking a dump
