roommates

We’re in a 4-person dorm, and we’ve had really good luck with roommates so far, with the exception of last night’s ‘Evil Roommate.’ We’re not even sure what her name was, because she wouldn’t talk to us except to tell us that we didn’t have to worry about putting up with her for long, she’d be leaving at 8 am to find a new hostel (this was already her second room in this hostel…).

Today we got another new roommate, Lucy, a dentist from Wales. She’s traveling on an around-the-world ticket, and has been in Buenos Aires, Brazil, Ghana, Kenya, Tanzania and maybe some places in Asia since leaving last September.

We’re done with work for now! Bed-making for the past 2 days was actually a lot more fun – it’s a two-person job per bad, and usually 2 teams per room, so being around more people makes the time go faster, and you can actually see what you’ve accomplished.
