Our house

I never really explained where I lived.
Meribeth and I live in a suburb called Wolloongabba or something like that. It is just outside the actual city of Brisbane. Walking distance actually.
We live in an old yellow house that is up on wooden stilts. There are a case of stairs in the front yard to get into the house. Once you walk up the stairs there is a covered patio with a outdoor table and chairs. It is nice because you can sit out there when it rains and watch the rain.
When you walk into the front door you walk into the living area, or as they call it, the lounge. On the right is the room of our German roommate Chris. He is here from Germany studying Business Management. He is 24 and actually knows English very well. He is a nice guy and we enjoy talking to him. Meribeth has a hard time understanding his accent but I am getting better at it.
Right next to his room is Meribeth's It is a small square room with cabinets made to be a closet.
The living area is just a couch (that is kind of smelly) and a t.v. and it is connected to the dining area where there is a kitchen table.
My room is on the side and it used to be a veranda outside. For some reason I just have a thing for outside rooms. It is made into a room with walls and everything but it used to be outside It's a large enough room though so it is okay.
The kitchen is old and rusty but it works. There are tons of dishes and food space for us so that is nice.
The backyard is huge and goes far back, but there are lots of trees and grass which can only mean more bugs, so we don't venture out there. Under the house is where our washer is and we hang our clothe s up under there.
So that is our house and we enjoy it and we have one more month left in it.
