The Ole' Apt!


This is our bathroom/laundry room.


This is our intense front door with a triple dead bolt lock! We also have a huge storage closet in the entryway, and we are using those shelves as our bathroom storage. It has been very convenient so far. 


Here is our HUGE living room. We have a lot of seating room, and a very nice entertainment center with a great tv. Behind the ugly hotel curtains is our front porch.


Our kitchen just got a brand new "American" sized fridge, which is very exciting, and a brand new toaster oven that even has a stove on top! (our original oven was broken) We have plenty of counter space and cabinet space to use for dishes and as a pantry.


This is our dining room and desk area! The bench seat is pretty typical old Albanian style. 

Our bedroom is "under construction", we had to buy bunkbeds so we are waiting for those to come in. All the wall colors are mix-matched and bright, and none of the furniture matches, but we think its very comfortable and our main concern was having enough room to hang out in the living room-which we definitely do! We also have plenty of storage room, and with three girls that is very important. It is a big deal to sit outside in the late afternoon and drink coffee, tea, etc. in Albanian culture, so having a porch is very "luxurious", and we have two! We cannot wait to give some students American coffee from our french press and serve it outside. I will post more pictures soon of Suhareke and the amazing views all around us. (Sunrises and sunsets + all the beautiful mountains = AMAZING)
