New Home

I moved! Here are some pictures of my new home. I am renting this place (Michelle, too) from a Bolivian woman for a few months. It is in a central location here in Cochabamba, which is nice as I am still figuring out where I want to work, live more permanently, etc., and it isn't too much of a commute to get anywhere so far. The sequence is: my front door & wall, inner door, gardens, living room, office space, kitchen, dining area, the hallway that runs the length of the house, the bedrooms and bathroom, the laundry areapatio area and the patio area. The set up is, I believe, a 'railcar' style - you have to walk through one of the bedrooms to have access to the other bedroom and bathroom. At least it was originally. Improvements have been made so that you can access the 2nd bedroom and bathroom from an outside door. Which is lucky since I have the bedroom at the end of the hall and I like to get up earlier than my housemate. We had our housewarming party this past weekend. It was great fun and now we have plants to make our place look more 'homey'.
