Our New Home

After almost a week of living in the dorms, we have finally moved into our house. We saw many apartments before deciding on this one, but we are very happy with our decision. We almost chose a different one, and were all set to close the deal, until the landlord told the agent that she did not want kids in the place. Whatever!

We have a three bed, three bath house. It has four levels and is very nice. The community that we are in is nestled in the foothills just north of Kaohsiung. It is remote enough to be out of the city, but close enough so that all of the excitement is within a twenty minute drive. Several teachers live in the community, two even walk to work. All of the floors are either wood or marble tile. There is no oven in the kitchen, but there are two gas burners. I have to hand wash the dishes but we are lucky to have a dish drier. Here are some pics. The complete album can be seen at http://picasaweb.google.com/schmmems/Taiwan2#slideshow/
