it is quite a change from the charming brownstone in manhatten or the little loft above the coffee show in terrace, but daniel & i really love our new house in cambodia.
.
.
we live above a cambodian family, who are very nice (as far as we can tell, as neither of us speak the same language) & have several children. & a lot of dogs. they run a little roadside shop (all the rage here), where they sell tasty snacks from thailand & cold soda pop in glass bottles.

but, the best thing about our house is the amazingly beautiful & breezy porch!
it has become a very welcome place of solace for us. in the evenings, after a day in the bustling chaos & busyness that is the city of phnom penh, we look forward to spending time reading & studying in the coolness of our porch.
for lovely inquiring minds, here are some pictures from the inside of our house....

what cool furniture your place has! it looks like you need to be creative with your cooking. when i lived in holland we only had a stove top as well. are you drinking instant coffee? (yes, i have eagle eyes)do you buy pop from your neighbours and then return the bottles?
WOW...its really great to see where you live. I can imagine your balcony being a place of solitude...it looks quite peaceful. Hope things are still going well and take care.
