My apartment

A lot of people have been asking about my apartment. Not having seen a lot of other people's places, I have been told that mine is rather large for one person. It should be for as much as I am paying for it (thanks weak dollar!). Here are some pictures of my flat. It is rather on the bright side with a ton of furniture from Indonesia and other countries around the world. My landlady and her husband travel a lot for his job. There are definitely a lot of places to sit. And there is extra sleeping space for three if anyone makes it over here.

I'm not sure how long I will be in this place. It is great and I love the location, but I can't see spending the money when I could be saving around $200 more a month with a smaller place. That's all for now. I am trapped in my lovely apartment this weekend correcting essays and working on a power point presentation.

Take care,
Jaime

Hi Jaime,
Happy Birthday! Hopefully you'll get a chance to celebrate. The blog looks good. Are you picking up any of the language? Did you have a chance to venture outside of Belgrade?

Hey Scotty,

The language is easy to read but rather difficult to learn. It has some twisted grammar, and everyone here tries to teach me the grammar before I learn the words. I have stopped going to my classes because I felt the teaching wasn't helping me. I also have no time to study. I wish I knew more. Maybe if I lived in a smaller town. I have been to some neighboring cities, but that was to give a workshop, not to relax and site see. Hopefully sometime in the near future.
We will celebrate real soon!
