Where Kali and I live!

Here are some pictures of the apartment that Kali and I share in Trastavere, a neighborhood on the west side of the Tiber. Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
That's the bed that we share. There's only one double bed in the apartment! We don't mind though. It leads to lots of funny stories too, especially since Kali and I are both sleep-talkers.

This is the other side of our main room, where our bed, messy desk, dresser and little couch fit together in a both cozy and spacious way. We're pretty happy with our little apartment.

Here's our hallway. Our apartment is set up so that you enter into a long hallway with doors on the left that lead to our bathroom, kitchen and closet, with the main room at the end of the hall.

Our closet! It's actually a perfect fit for all our stuff since we also have a dresser on the other side of the hall (which you can see in the previous picture).

Our kitchen. It's pretty small, we have very little cabinet space and a tiny little fridge. No microwave either, but we just make our instant oatmeal that Kali brought from home with water boiled on the stove.

This is our bathroom. Like the rest of the apartment, it's a skinny hallway, but for two people it works just fine. Our shower could use a bigger water heater though - it starts getting cold after only 10 minutes or so of shower time.

Here's our tiny little washer! It's in the corner of our bathroom. Almost no one has dryers here. Utilities are really expensive so most people use clothes lines (which we have outside our windows!)

There's me and Kali at the train station. I look a little cheesy but I think she'll like it better than the picture I took of her last night when we were getting ready for bed.

More pictures of outside in Trastavere later!
