Sarah requested some photos of my apartment. So here it is. I live within a stone throw away from work, which is awesome! The rent is very expensive in local currency (feels like a $2000 apartment to them), but the real cost in USD is about $650. It's a pretty small brand new apartment complex, almost like a hotel. My room is just a bit larger than a hotel room. Anything bigger is more suitable for families. This place kind of reminds me of an apartment I rented in Amsterdam two years ago. It's on the 11th floor, very quiet facing an inner courtyard. When I'm in the apartment, I forget that I'm living right in the middle of Beijing.

| Apartment comes with the furniture and even a TV. Not too shabby, eh? |

| Kitchen with a washing machine. Much nicer than my Somerville apartment |

I feel like I'm in an IKEA showroom, all brand new furniture.
So... who wants to come and visit me?
I'll come visit!
