Welcome Home!

So, I've done some more recent decorating. There's still so much more that I would love to do, but I'm on a limited budget here. As much as I would love to, it makes no sense spending a ton of money to make an apartment adorable so that I can live in it for 5 more months.

Now, without further ado (sp?)- let me take you on a tour of my apartment in Toulouse

We walk into the foyer... aka the hallway.

















To the right, you will find the lovely and frequently busy kitchen.
 




Thanks to www.leboncoin.com, our kitchen is now complete with a fridge and a washing machine! No oven though.






One of the women in charge of the program let us borrow a table and chairs from her while we are here!








Our kitchen also comes stocked with a nice, roomy cabinet. That is now full of food.







To the left of the hallway, we have our living room!





We got the couches and table from leboncoin.com as well. Christophe let us borrow the fold out table and the TV is from the same women who lent us the kitchen table!





If you can believe it, this is the few from our balcony, which is right off of the living room. Not too shabby.




Down the hallway a little further to the right, we have our bathroom/shower. Unlike at home, our shower is separate from our toilet, which is at the end of the hallway.





And to the left at the end of the hallway, we have my room!

So, once again thanks to leboncoin, I was able to decorate my room! From this website, which is kind of like Craigslist, I got this awesome sofa bed thing that folds up like a futon. I also got a desk and chair that the woman was kind enough to deliver herself! I got the bedside table from Ikea and put it together myself. And the tapestry (along with the one in the living room) is mine from home.




      










Sorry it took so long for me to get those pictures up! It doesn't help that my camera is broken and my Droid got locked somehow, so it doesn't always let me use the camera.

I'm gonna go make some lunch and get to lesson planning! Tomorrow I'm teaching lessons about bullying, mythological creatures of the UK, and honey bees... wish me luck!
