New Apartment in Dunchon-dong

Last Thursday we moved into a new apartment...and it is wonderful! It feels so great to have more space. We have already made it feel like home a bit and have finally unpacked one of our suitcases which held our belongings for the last three months. I think it is good we first lived in the small apartment because it really makes us appreciate this one so much more. Here are a couple of photos of our place. The picture of the street is taken from our balcony...I love it that we have a balcony!
The area that we are now in is about a 45 minute commute from Connexus which isn't ideal but worth it when we see the apartment. We have enjoyed exploring our new neighborhood and it is nice to see children on the streets and people biking. I hadn't noticed until now that I never saw kids around at our last place, only men in business suits and women in high heals.

You'll notice in the last picture how the showers are a bit different here. We just stand right in front of the sink and hold the shower head. The entire bathroom gets pretty wet but it sure saves on space. This is why I am wearing the lovely green flip flops. Most bathrooms (in homes) have sandals sitting outside of them so that if the floor is wet people don't get their feet wet. Pretty smart I guess.
