As you know, this semester, I am
studying abroad in Athens, Greece. This post includes a few pictures of our apartment, in case anyone is really curious about our living situation. We are staying in a lovely little neighborhood (kind of like a suburb--think maybe the Brooklyn to NYC's Manhattan... minus the bridge). Though we are about five minute's walk from our university, there is a big green fence around campus and the nearest entrance is a few blocks up the hill.
Our building is basically a dormitory with laundry facilities in the basement, a living room area downstairs, and apartments above. All of the study abroad students are staying in this building. There are people from all over the
USA, Brazil, and Egypt. I have had wonderful conversations today that I can't wait to tell you about in my next blogs. Our roommates are two girls that also came from a school together and are very sweet.
Welcome to our home! >>>
This is our kitchen. It is stocked with every cooking item we could ever ever need. At our college, there is a cafeteria (and Starbucks!) where we can pay for meals and drinks and such, but there is no meal plan. Which is excellent--I love cooking and can't wait to
learn how to cook some classy Greek food! Now, we'll continue the tour through the open door...

| Keep going--don't be shy! |

| Pretty homey, right?! |
We had the option of buying sheets from the university, but opted to bring our own kinda crappy ones instead. We figure we can always leave them behind for more luggage space! (You know, so we can bring back y'all some cool stuff?) I am on the right and Anna is on the left. My boyfriend, Bobby, is on the picture on the wall. :) But wait, there's more!

Looks like you have a swanky set up. :)
