chez moi


this is it, my new home for the next two years,
bigger than my home in new york!



outside might not be painted but
the inside is a wonderful shade of baby blue?



my living room

the overstuffed brown seating area and coffee table were kindly provided by my landlord.
the previous volunteers' photos are still on the wall,
hopefully soon I'll be able to add my own.



my kitchen

on the right is a gas stove top , the gas bottle underneath
the blue contraption behind it is my water filter
to the left is the fruit basket given to me by my host family as a parting gift



my sink

two bidons filled with water from the forage
a bamboo stool
2 buckets
one black for washing
one rust for rinsing



my bedroom

a mosquito net hanging over the bed
a pange curtain



my guest room

for any visitors (hint hint!)



my outhouse

there's another building in the back of my house that was never fully finished
I think it was meant for cooking
to the left is where my 'bathroom' is



side of the outhouse



yes, this is it, don't be jealous
