James and I have neglected to take any photos of the house we have been living in since January. But since we both plan on spending the remainder of our time here in
Buenos Aires in this house, called "
Casazul," here are some images of our new home away from home.
This was James' room for the month of January. He has since moved to the roof, in the room seen below.
The roof with excellent view of the church across the street.
Our pool.
Some roommates on the roof kitchen (there are two kitchens total). In the center is the owner of the house, Fernando.
This is the living room connected to the kitchen on the roof. It's like a greenhouse, but inside is a kitchen and living room. This is, by far, the best room in the house.
These stairs are behind the roof kitchen. They lead to the bedrooms on the 460
Pasco side of the house. Let me explain. The layout is two, two-story houses connected by a roof. Both houses have courtyards open through both floors. On top of the roof are two other rooms, a large glass enclosure (the roof living room/kitchen) and two large patio areas. I live on the 454
Pasco side of the house, upstairs. James used to live on the 460
Pasco side, but now lives on the roof. Get it? It's bizarre. Below is me in my room. You can see behind me the open courtyard.
The stairs outside of my room that lead down to the door/
ground floor. The
ground floor of both sides of the house is not connected to the 2
nd floor or the roof. So, there are essentially 4 front d
oors, depending on where you live in the house. Each floor has about 4 or 5 rooms, so we have a ton of roommates.
Below is James looking out the window to his room. Note Mitre, the white cat to the left. There is also a black cat that lives on the bottom floor.
In our kitchen, below the roof, we have a lot more room to cook than we did at the
Lavalle apartment, which was more like a college dorm kitchen. Here are a couple of pictures from the night James led us in figuring out how to make our own
empanadas.
Also, in order to leave our mark at
Casazul, James and I
commandeered a large, blank canvas in the roof living room. We are currently painting a large piece to hang in the living room. The painting will heavily feature pandas, as you can see.
Coming soon! Videos from James!

That panda painting is going to be serious!
I am so jealous. Seriously. It's so awesome that you guys made such a huge move. I hope I have the balls to do something like that when I graduate. Do you have jobs yet? That's the only thing I'd be afraid of. But wow, awesome house.
