In response to requests from some of my readers (doesn’t that sound fancy), friends and family, for your enjoyment, I present …pictures of my apartment!


I’m not going to elaborate – I think these are pretty self-explanatory. Entryway. Kitchen. Living room. Bathroom. And …bce (“that’s all”).



















I am working in the Peace Corps, Luxury Division. I have reliable running water, central heating, electricity, my own water heater, and my own indoor, flushing toilet. Plus a refrigerator. (I also have a kitten on my lap.)

Most importantly, I don’t have enough stuff to make the apartment too cluttered, so it is usually fairly neat and my things are semi-organized. Gasp!

Oh, and I have the best key-ring ever . Sarah Lawrence lanyard, little boy dragon with a beer from Qingdao, and AWESOME keys – to my apartment, my classroom and my PO Box:
