Life with Margaret

I am sitting in my room on 31 Pound St in Lismore. I have Internet and cell reception, and I then there's Margaret. Homestay is going to be one of the best and most well-timed/ necessary parts of this program! I won't write too much, I just wanted to post some pictures of the house that I took earlier this afternoon. Margaret is an ex-pat who has lived in Australia 22 years now. Her son is at Sydney uni now, so it's just the two of us these next 2 weeks! My friend Michelle from the program is staying over the next 2 nights, because her homestay people are out of town this weekend. So the future looks very bright, and here are some pictures of my new, short-term life:
