Bertilla

Our little criada came yesterday, for the first time since I moved. Her name is Bertilla, although my roommates say her name like you would in english. Whatever works I suppose. I've decided that I'm a big fan of the maid service. In addition to vacuuming my room and making my bed, she even straightened and neatly stacked the boxes of stuff that I haven't finished unpacking.

This new place is pretty great. I have a little balcony, and I leave the door open at night so that I can lay in bed and listen to the ocean. Although, in the SD training we were told to never leave balcony doors open at night, especially if there is anyway for someone to climb onto the balcony, like the tree that grows right up next to mine I suppose. Oh well...
