Hangin' with the Housemates
Rollin' with the Homies
Chillin' with the Crew
Kickin' it with the Flatmates
the family photo
on our street (Rue du Vieux Cimetière)
a true "auberge español" set-up this year:we all represent different countries! (and, sort-of, different languages)
however you spin it,
there's no use denying it,
the people I live with are a big part of my life.
so this post is dedicated to my homies.
we've made a great group this year
sharing living space isn't always the easiest...
but we've made it through :)
and are actually friends, so that says a lot
the guys by our front door Who's in da House??
Meet the 2009-2010 residents of 9 Rue du Vieux Cimetière
Tina
Representing: Seattle, United States
Aliases: Teen Wolf, Wolfy, Percy Pig, "Grand-mère"
You'll find her either: Obsessively cleaning the kitchen, sitting on her windowsill, getting into cars with strangers, waking up Dani, at the beach, or dancing...somewhere, anywhere
such a little housewife. sometimes.
one time, we got "attacked" by a burnt cork. random times.Dani
Better known as: Dani Bear
Representing: Malaga, Spain
You'll find him either: Making fabulous Spanish tortillas, playing online (free) poker, taking a nap, teaching Tina to speak Spanish, riding the bus, or contemplating why the heck he's in France to study English language (in French)
Everybody's favorite Spaniard, sitting on my windowsill
Spanish "tortilla," a thing of beauty...basically a giant fried potato and egg delicious creation
on est où là? HYERES!
brighter flash than expected, apparently. hahaAustin
AKA: Au-steeeeeen!
Representing: London, England
You'll find him either: eating porridge, incorporating tea and/or butter into his day, scheming up a practical joke, dreaming about rugby, calling "safety", or being pensive in a tree
Showing off his mad dancing skills.
Austin dominated at our Spanish New Year party, where we made like the Spaniards and ate 12 grapes at our you-tube-re-created New Year clock-chiming. Our grapes were amazingly enormous, making it all just very hilarious.
Time for the beach, yeah?!
Emmanuelle
Or you can call her: Emma, Ma Petite-Fille
Representing: Marseille, France
You'll find her either: anything as long as it's not doing the dishes (haaahaaa), talking to her cherie, watching downloaded Japanese cartoons, or adding more sugar to her tea
on the dancefloor
at the Saturday market
We've had a good year together. A few hiccups along the way, as always comes with sharing housing, but nothing too major. And now, Austin's officially back to England and we're in another time of transition. With only 4 weeks left (for the remaining 3), we're livin' it up while we're still here! The 4 of us had a "family" beach trip, a Saturday market outing, one final dinner all together, and a send-off French-style breakfast for Austin.
Spanish New Year party way back in January
Classic.

Last weekend's "family outing" to the Saturday market
this is the restaurant right by our house, just walk up 30 seconds(straight then veer left, where the person is) and you're practically at our front door)
cork attack.What else can I say? With 4 people from 4 cultures all under one roof, speaking multiple languages, we've all shared and learned lots. awww. Sentimental moment.
