My Apartment

These are some pics of my apartment.  We are right by the main river in Florence, close to Ponte Vecchio, the Duomo, and a 5 minute walk to school.  Prime location.

This is the outside of my apartment.  We have the windows on the top with the green shutters all the way on the right.

This is the street that I live on.  

 This is the kitchen.  Everything is really small, the fridge is about the size of 2 mini fridges stacked.  We have a washer but no dryer...so it's clothes lines out the window and 4 hours to dry.  

 This is the main hallway walking in to the apartment.  We don't have an actual living room, just a couch in the hallway.  The kitchen is just off to the left.

 There are three bedrooms in our apartment.  Two single rooms and one room that is shared, so I share a room with Ehren, my roommate from LTU.

 This is my room.  My bed is to the right.

 This is my bed.  Complete with the retro orange sheets.

We have 2 bathrooms, which is convenient living with 4 people.  I hit my elbows every day in the shower, that's how small it is.  The window in the bathroom looks down into a small courtyard and our neighbors kitchen window looks right into our bathroom.  I'm sure they've encountered some unfortunate situations while making breakfast.

Our apartment is one of the few ones that actually has a bidet.  I had to take a picture of it because everyone here is fascinated by it.  The other day the girls from LTU and all of us roommates had a 20 minute discussion about what the proper way to use it is.  We ended up having to rely on Google/YouTube to tell us the answer.  It was quite the conversation.
