our first place

this weekend, we moved out of our first apartment- we only had it for two months, just a little stint in the city before our whirlwind summer began. it was a tiny, tiny studio- and yet obnoxiously cute. and it delivered the kind of lifestyle that we will, in coming years, look back upon fondly as we tell people about "our first place": how our dining table was a folding breakfast tray; how we could wash our hands in the kitchen and dry them in the bathroom without actually having to move very far; how the hallway exuded a strange funk for which we felt the need to apologize profusely to all guests...

it's been a great two months- this month in brazil has a lot to live up to! (stay tuned for lots of posts in the coming months! i promise to write.)
