Left side as you walk through the door (where the light is coming from). The door you see here is to the other side of the house, where my landlords live. I'm currently storing my clothing like this but I hired a local carpenter to build a big shelving unit for me which should be done tomorrow!
My living room area. I'm so happy that my landlords let me use these two couches!
My kitchen area. That's a propane stove. I can find apples at the village markets on Mondays and Thursdays! I'm going to be moving a lot of the stuff underneath the table to my shelving unit when I get it tomorrow.
Entryway to my bedroom. I take baths inside in that metal tub.
Desk in my bedroom. The previous volunteer left my a lot of program guides and other materials for camps, etc. That wheel-like thing is where I hang my socks and underwear to dry ( it's considered impolite to hang underwear on the clotheslines outside).
My bed with mosquito netting. When I crawl in there at night it feels like a fort I would make as a child. It's cozy. However, since I've arrived in country I've had ongoing issues with some fleas/bed bugs in beds that is difficult to resolve (washing sheets, hanging them out in the sun, etc, has not worked terribly well for me). Many other PCVs have this same issue and many of our ankles have several flea bites.
My bed. It's bigger than it appears here. About full size.
View from my bedroom window. That's the false banana leaf that people use for eating and for many other purposes.
Neighbors!
