The adventure continues...

Hi everybody!  I just got back from a three hour church meeting, and I am absolutely famished.  My roommate and I moved into our host family's darling apartment last night, and we did not have a chance to buy groceries.  So, just for today, we are going to break our promise to not shop on Sundays.  We're going to Carrefour to get some food!

The 16th arrondisement is universally charming.  The streets are fairly narrow, and it is a comfortable residential area.  No tourists here!  And my bedroom is fantastic.  Check it out:

This is the window that overlooks a little courtyard.  The courtyard is more practical than pretty, but I don't mind.  The windows are tall and let in soft light.  You can also see my writing desk.  No homework will be done there!  It's reserved for artistic and recreational purposes.

Panning to the left... This is my sink!  Everyone should have a sink in their room.  It's divine.

Lastly, my bed.  Very comfortable.  Firm, the way I like it, and very inviting.  In fact, maybe I'll let myself take a Sunday nap today...

Well, that was the grand tour!  Sometime later, I'll post a video so that you can see the whole apartment.  I'll also share some photos of the fun flea market I went to yesterday-- Les Puces de Saint Ouen (pronounced 'poos du san twah').
