So without further ado, I wanted to share my new apartment with you. I LOVE it! I feel very spoiled and lucky to have it.
There are 6 stories but really I live on 7 because the first floor is a wide open area. I need to remember to ask about why there aren't apartments on that level. It's kinda like a lobby but it's completely open as you can see. 
My front door.
I also have a second door to which is for service people. So different than at home. Right now that's what everyone's using since my main door lock is broken. What's that saying about back door guests are best? Everyone's a back door guest at my place.
Check out the interesting shaped keys.
They're round.
My living room.
The view. To the right you can see one of Brasilia's sights...the TV Tower. In the center you can see the Banco Brasil and check out the treetops. There's a field on the other side of those so I have all this green space, clean air and beauty. Lucky! Alright, some of the sights are hard to make out for now, but they're there. I promise!
My dining room and another living room view.
The kitchen. I've got 2 sinks. One is for dishes, while the other is for??? My washer and dryer are at the end of the kitchen.
Hallway
Guest room. This could be yours! Taking reservations now. By the time any of you come, it'll be much fancier. Dates are booking fast!
My room. One of my favorite things to do is lie in bed and watch the sunrise or set. It happens here so quickly (about 30 minutes). It's a 6:30 sunrise and 6:30 sunset.
My closet. 
The bathroom. Love the 60s charm.

The bathroom. Love the 60s charm.It's feeling homier each day. I'm glad I brought a few things from home to make my new place feel like home. Pictures of family and friends, a few runners and table cloths make a HUGE difference. I love it because... it's charming and quaint. It's the perfect size. It came with a gecko who likes to visit at night for his dinner of uninvited guests. And has the best view. Everyday I see the sun rise over the treetops while the parakeets begin chatting. Can't ask for much more. Life is good.
Hey Megan! GREAT digs! I have added you to the list on my blog of blogs I follow! I wanted to ask - is your washer and dryer all in 1? I'm an HGTV whore, and a lot of times on House Hunters International I see 1 unit that serves as a washer and dryer. If so, how does it work?
ReplyDeleteYour apartment looks great, nothing like you one in the Dong. Geckos beat cockroaches anyday. You are making me want to go and look up airfares to Brasil. It looks like you are being well looked after and that you are settling in well. I love reading about your adventures.
ReplyDeleteHey Lizzie! I know, the place it great! That's funny that you think of HH International. That's one of my favorite shows! It's not an all-in-one deal. Two different units. Sorry no fun there for you. I actually haven't had to use the dryer because it's sooo dry here. The humidity levels today were about 12%. Clothes dry in a few hours at most. Crazy!
ReplyDeleteAnd Rach, you're welcome to come down and visit anytime. It would be wonderful to have you! If you're interested, keep your eyes peeled. I've heard there may be some discounts coming with the Brazilian govt changing their price requirements a bit. And congrats on your place too. We've definitely moved up since the Dong days. :)
