Anyhow, it is awesome. I only moved about 8 blocks from my old home but I'm now near everything: grocery store, Juan Valdez (Colombia Starbucks equivalent), salons, outdoor markets, bars, restaurants, and more. I also now get to live alone. I have my own space, I can use my kitchen whenever I want, I can have guests over without feeling bad, and I can sing and dance around in my underwear (if I so choose). Being on my own also means more responsibility and learning to live in Spanish in new ways: Calling to get my phone, TV, and Internet set up; paying bills; getting locks changed and new keys made... I love it!
Here are few photos of my new place...visitors welcome!:
Kate it's so pretty!!! It looks great! How fun to have your own apartment - I know you'll love it. I'll be in Houston the week you will be there, and I'm having dinner with Pears one night, so you should totally come!! Monday the 27th :-)
ReplyDeleteYou and Jules and your grown-up apartments! Mine is kinda grown-up, too, but I had nothing to do with it. Have fun in Houston and have a good margarita for me!!
ReplyDeleteWow. You dance around in your underwear!! (my mind is racing and I can't get it to stop)
