New Apartment

So I moved into this pretty nice, brand new, studio apartment!! It's like a very large hotel room, with plenty of storage, and a nice balcony that faces the mountains. It is funny because this is the first time in my adult life that I've had my own space, and it is so cheap, about $90 a month. I am outside of the city just a little bit, so that is both excellent, and has its draw backs at the same time. The first night was a little rough though! It is not furnished and I couldn't figure out how to make the hot water work, so I took a quick cold shower and got to sleep on my towel. The next day, I picked up a few things, and the manager in his very broken English showed me how to use the hot water... there is an adjustment for the water pressure and less water pressure equals hotter water! Yay!!
So I'll be here for just a month and then its off to a monastary for 26 days of silence, meditation, bring it on, I'm actually really looking forward to it!! After that I am planning on doing a massage course in a hill-tribe village, and then start working!
