She has a little loft for sleeping. We went up there to take a look. This really remind me of Paris where apartment are tiny but they cost a fortune to rent.
We decided to walk around her neighborhood. Across the street there is a Farmer open market so we are checking out...

|
Lots of fresh local produce
|
|
|
Organic vegetables on display!
We are just looking around to see what they have to offer..
