Welcome to our home

This is our new apartment building. We are living on the ground floor near the back of the building. Security is very tight in most places. Most homes and apartment buildings have a fence. We have to unlock the gate when we come or go. Unlock the front door of the building and then unlock the two locks on our apartment door.












Above is a picture of our bedroom. Hungarian beds are quite different than American, but still comfortable. Notice the wardrobe to the right of the bed. There are no closets so this is how they store their clothes. There are two in this room. To the right is a picture of our bathroom. You will notice that most everything here is smaller. The box on the wall is the water heater. Right below that (the box on the floor in front of the toilet) is our washing machine. Not much leg room when you sit down either. There is no dryer, so clothes are dried on a rack that hangs above the tub. It is lifted up out of the way now.













This is our kitchen. Again, you will notice how small it is. There is barely enough room for Nancy and I to sit at the table let alone have anyone over for a meal. Entertainment will have to take place in the living room.

This is a typical Hungarian living room. Notice again the wardrobe and cupboards for storing. This apartment came furnished, which is a common practice here.

To the right (behind the chairs) is a large window and a door to our balcony. We noticed that there are grapevines just outside our window. In fact, several homes have grapevines in their yards. We cannot wait for spring and summer to get here so we can see what the grapes will look like.
















Finally, here we see Nancy working in the INSTE office. We are so glad God gave us such a nice place to live and work in. I'm sure that it won't be long before this room will be filled with books as we get groups started this fall.

Well, that's our home. Thanks for the visit and we sure do appreciate your prayers and support.

Blessings,
Mike & Nancy
