Inside of our villa


Wanted to share some inside pictures of our villa.


This is our combination dining room table/computer table. Since it is the only table in the villa it gets used for EVERYTHING.

All of the appliances in the villa were put in new before we moved in.


Master bedroom.

We affectionately call this our Prayer Rug. All the floors are tile which are cold and hard (but easy to keep clean). We have bought two rugs for the villa - one under the dining room table and one next to the bed. One of the fun things about living where we do is these carpets are plentiful and inexpensive.

Master bathroom. Notice -- all tile and all new fixtures.

One of the problems with all new appliances, is that I didn't have any choice in what was installed. The general manager ordered an Italian combination washer/dryer. Italians do food well, but not appliances. I affectionately called this my peanut butter cup washer. I never did figure out how to use it as a dryer and could only do a miniscule batch of laundry in it.

However, the day before I left to come back to the States, they replaced my peanut butter cup washer with this full-sized one - but the cord was not long enough to go to the outlet. Check out the splice in the cord! Now let's think this one through - we are talking about a possibility of water overflowing her. Yes, this is the Land of Almost.
