Apartment Pics

Here are a few pics of our apartment.

This is the living room. We are very fortunate that our apartment is on the corner of the building so we have tons of windows.


And here is the kitchen (notice there is not an oven, the refrigerator only stands to my chest and the stove is a two-burner hotplate) :)

This is our bedroom. Once you add about 4 inches of foam to the mattress it's not bad to sleep on. Asians like hard beds.

And here is little Chloe's room. The mat on the floor is the Thai alphabet. We are able to hire a lady to watch Chloe one day/week and she is teaching Chloe how to speak Thai (she is also teaching me Thai, how to shop at the market and get a good price and how to live like a Thai- we are very glad to have her)

We are also fortunate to have a wonderful balcony on which is a washer and dryer. This is also where I hang out our clothes to dry because the electricity for the dryer is too expensive to use much.

Great pictures...gives us a little clearer idea if the apartment. Web-cam was a little hard to see clearly. Looks nice and sunny. I like it.

Thanks for posting pictures -- of your apartment, and a new one of little Chloe. She is really developing a personality, isn't she? What a sweetheart.

So glad you all have lots of windows/ good view of mountains, etc. your living room looks really nice.

Your apartment looks really nice. That's great that you have someone helping you learn how to be "Tai". Chloe looks so big!! She always seems very happy.
