This is my living room/extra bedroom. The first room in my house.
I only have ONE window. That is it. I also have doors that open up in the back bedroom.
Chico's favorite spot is on my front room bed. He likes to look out the window.
This is the arch from my front room to my kitchen.
This is my kitchen. Yes, After eight years and three different places, I FINALLY have a kitchen.
My back bedroom and patio.
My patio.
I am going to put more flowers in my little garden.
Not to forget. These are my curtains that I bought at the second hand store and hemmed up.
So this is my place. I live in a Mexican neighborhood, surrounded by others and some of them are very loud. But my rent is only 2500 pesos a month. Whenever I get irritated at the noise, I think of the cheap rent. I hope all of you have a Happy New Year..... I am going to a friend's house to get away from the parties in this neighborhood.
Lovely home.
ReplyDeleteThank you Kathie. P
DeleteLooks very comfortable. I don't know how much 2500 pesos is in dollars. I am very noise sensitive. How much is a quiet place? Have been enjoying your blog. Happy peaceful new year.
ReplyDeleteThank you Donna. It is about 145 dollars. There is no always quiet place in Mexico...... Happy New year to you. P

Hi Cathy, Olive likes to hide. Thanks for writing. P
DeleteNoise aside, as long as you are comfortable, safe and secure you've found a great place to live.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you get a good amount of light from the front window. And now with a kitchen you could also grow a few pots of herbs on the patio to flavor your home cooked meals.
Wishing you a Happy 2016!
Hi Scott, thanks for writing. Yes, i have started an herb garden. Happy 2016 to you too. P

Hello from Costa Rica!
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to send you a message to wish you a Happy New Year. Also, I love the pictures of the place and can really appreciate what a bargain $2,500 mxn is! We have been looking for three months and the lowest I have found is about $400 US!
Finally, I wanted to let you know we will be in Ajijic on January 15th for 10 days and hopefully we can get together for coffee or lunch.
Sincerely,
Gracie's Dad
