Fireplace!
The kitchen is my favorite room in the house!

Our front door!

I found an amazing apartment.

There is just no other way to say it.

After days and days of looking/searching, calling landlords and agencies that may or may not speak english, and traipsing through the blazing Medditeranean sun, my partner in crime, Lindsey (of CSU Monterey Bay) and I viewed an apartment that we both fell in love with on the spot.

It is literally right across from school, it has a view of two little cafes in the square it overlooks, and it is in a beautiful and very safe neighborhood. The wooden doors to enter our building look like a castle archway, and there are buzzers with a little microphone thingie so when people come they have to be buzzed up!

It is one huge bedroom with two twin beds, a large living room/dining room with seating for 6, and a great kitchen. It has a washer /dryer, dishwasher, range stove, spacious oven, and of course, it's totally furnished.

The bathroom has a large tub (those of you who know me know I LOVE a tub!), a sink with counter, and get this, a bidet! ( For those of you who don't know, the french have a little toilet looking things that you "flush" and water and soap come up and rinse off your tushie.)

There are huge open windows in all the rooms.. and the large windows in the bedroom and living room have gorgeous shutters!

Linds and I are signing our lease Monday, we want to have our program director read it over, because it is all in French, and we want to make sure we get it right.

Our move in day is September 1st, and we are really ready to be in it!
