Home sweet home!

We love our little house.  It is very clean, close to our school, and in a great location in a quiet part of the city.  We have two bedrooms, a bathroom, a tiny kitchen, and a little dining room/Carrie's makeup and hairdrying room :)  One of the funniest things about the apartment is the shower.  Instead of a shower stall, many of the bathrooms in Korea (at least in ours and in all of the hotels we have stayed in) just have a shower head attached to the sink faucet.  When you want to wash your hands, you twist a nozel on the sink to make the water come out of the faucet.  When you you want to take a shower, you flip the nozel to make it come out of the shower head.  At first I thought this would be annoying, but it actually makes for a very large shower! :)  Our apartment also has some very interesting wall paper, but we don't mind it!  We have a washing machine, but no dryer, so we hang our clothes on this cool little contraption on that hangs from the kitchen ceiling.  We have a stove but no oven, so we may be investing in a toaster oven in order to bake.  We also do not have a dishwasher, but it is so cheap to eat out that we don't have dishes to wash very often.  The apartment is the perfect size for us, and we couldn't have asked for a better place.  Perhaps best of all, we don't have to pay any rent!! :)
