My Home

I probably should have posted this a while ago. This is where I live:

the street: Elms Avenue

the neighborhood: Muswell Hill

the borough: Haringey

the city: London

When asked where you live in London, you never reply with the borough, you reply with the neighborhood (apparently it's embarrassing to say the borough). But anyway, the pictures.

The washer and gravity dryer. It really doesn't dry the clothes very well, but gets all the excess water out so you can hang it up to dry.

The upstairs kitchen. The washer and dryer are just off to the right. This is more in the location of the attic in the scheme of the house.

The shower room. No toilet, just shower and bath. The bath is on the right and the shower is behind the bath. Kinda like Keith's bathroom.

The back of the house from the backyard. The upstairs kitchen is the room with the window open, my bedroom is directly below on the left, the dining room is on the bottom right behind the tree, the kitchen is the small window in the middle, and the guest bedroom is on the right above the tree. And yes, my house is attached to a house on both sides.

This is the downstairs toilet. Yes, it's outside and of course this is toilet that flushes every time as opposed to the toilet inside upstairs that does not.

The view from the front door. There is a little basement-kitchen that is at the end of the hall on the right, the stairs just before, the living and dining rooms on the left respectively, and the entrance room directly on the right.

The upstairs toilet that works some days.

The backyard from the upstairs kitchen.

My bedroom. Simple.
