An introduction to my house, and Happy Birthday Cara!

This picture is for my wonderful, beautiful sister who just turned 23. I ride bus number 23... eerie coincidence or no?



This is Rosario and me on the roof of our house. Rosario is probably one of the most precious people in the whole world, and I happen to be lucky enough to have her as my host mother. She is an amazing cook, amazing host, and so sweet. She calles Meara and I her niñas, and every once in a while she will just give me a big hug and call me her muñeca (her doll).


¡Que Guapa! She is such a model.


I think this bathroom is one of the most wonderful bathrooms in the whole world. I love the tiles on the wall, the tiles on the floor, the great little fixtures (besides the shower head), and yes, I am standing in the shower.


We have a bidet! (In Spanish, bidet). Have yet to try it out.


Some appliance designer needs his/her license revoked. This shower head hangs at a 45 degree angle pointing itself towards the wall. Last Friday when I was showering, the shower head flew off the little holder (not uncommon, usually hits me in the back of the head) but on this particular day it took a kamikaze dive of death past the shower curtain and onto the floor, and the hose was writhing in delight as it gushed water all over the floor. Thank goodness it wasn't a carpeted bathroom.

I think I really need a carpeted bathroom. What a great story!
