La Casa
Well, I think up to now I have not really put any pictures of our splendid Palace here online. Let's start with the majestic palace walls. Their top is equipped with broken glass to force intruders to climb the neighboring roof and then walk across. The big gate is reinforced with metal plates so nobody can see through. The small gate only has the wire netting that is needed to keep small dogs outside. On the side you can see the place where the trash is collected to be picked up by the garbage collection.
If you enter through the small gate and turn left you can see Martin's hammock which provides for a comforting reading experience in the shade of the tree. A bit further towards the wall the barbecue is waiting for the next party. The concrete plates lead towards the second part of the residence. A big hall comforts up to two students with a bathroom of their own and one shelf.
If you enter the main building through the front door you find the dining room with a table and the comforting sofas of the living room. Information sheets above the little table ease the correct use of the Spanish verb forms. And a colorful garland reminds of the festivities related to the Dia de Muertos.
In the kitchen the meals are prepared. Up to three people can work here at the same time... : ) Food storage in the cupboard or hanging from the walls provides some security against the mouse living below the fridge.
Well and then there is the high room which is 5cm above normal ground level and thus does not get flooded by the summer rain. Here I spend my nights (and only the nights). The bed is specifically tailored for the needs of Mexicans. No need to make it longer than 1.9m...
