Apartment tour

Got the pictures working as you can see. So I thought I would take you on a quick tour of my apartment.

First - the front door. There's two apartments on this floor in the building, and the door must have 4 or 5 different locks that go into solid stone or rock walls. Looks like a door you'd see in a New York apartment.

At one end of the apartment there are two single bedrooms. Only one guy is living in one of them right now, a fellow from Latvia. His name is Nicolai and he's in the fifth level here - I'm in the second.

Next you're looking down the other end of the apartment, where the double bedroom, bathroom and kitchen are. That hallway 'door' you can see is abot 6 feet high. For some peculiar reason, every opening is about 6 feet in this place, some shorter. But it makes no sense. My bedroom must have 14 foot ceilings, the kitchen 12 and the bathroom 8. There's no method to this madness.

This is our splendid bathroom, I'll complain about the shower later. But like everything else, it's not designed for someone 6'5" despite the tall ceilings. It's decent, clean, and it works. It seems every apartment here in Perugia has a beday too, but I have yet to see a urinal anywhere.

Here is our kitchen. A gas stove, fridge, freezer, sink, the usual stuff. There's a seperate hot water tank for the taps versus the shower. Kinda nice. But this time of year all you want is cold water. There's also a small clothes washer in the kitchen. You can't see the next building, but it's about 6 feet away. I really really wanted to hang my clothes between buildings, I thought that's what happenend. but apparently not here, haven't seen it yet.

I've got more pictures of my bedroom, but I'll put them up later. I need to go meet some friends. We might goto the coast this weekend for another concert of the most famous Italian Rock singer. I still don't know who it is, but it's on the beach and bound to be interesting. Arrivaderci.
