Homestay

I live in an apartment with a mother and her daughter.  I have a roommate and we share a small, basic room.  It takes some getting used to.  We live about a 20 minute taxi/trolleybus ride away from the VENUSA school that we go to.  Here are some pictures of our place, the view from my bedroom window, our family, and of our school VENUSA.  Also the other day we exchanged with our home stay moms for Bolivar Fuertes (the currency here).  We exchanged $100 USD for 1500BF so we had some fat stacks on our hands.

In our school there are many hammocks so many students take naps or just chill in them.  Hammocks are very popular here in Venezuela.
