We've been at site for over 4mths and are just now posting pics of our house. Oh, well... here they are!
The front porch, complete with a little moat. It comes in handy during the rainy season, believe it or not.
The back.... our landlords love yellow. All of the wood on the first floor is used for our fogon (below)
Our fogon... and the other half of the kitchen below. The fabric for the curtains was given to me by our host mom.
Dining area (Jacob's recent birthday present in the foreground)
Guest bedroom
Our bedroom. Jacob bought the bedspread for me at the local Lencan market. The woman who sold it to him said these types of quilts are traditional Lencan wedding gifts. Love it!
The view from our back porch
Our neighbor. I started feeding him our old bread, and now he comes up to the fence every time he sees me outside expecting to be fed. I have created a monster. The USA canisters can be found all over our backyard and around town. They housed food donations several years back, and now mine hold sage!
And, last but not least, an updated photo of our local waterfall. It will continue to grow in size until about mid-November when the rainy season lets up.
