Home, sweet home, part 2

As some of you know, I moved to a new flat in June last year. And I just realised that I haven´t posted any photos of it as I promised you that I would. But better late than never, so...
This is the building where I live. I´m on the top floor, in the penthouse. Which is great, despite the fact that it comes with a lot of climbing as there´s no elevator. For those of you who know Phnom Penh, the street is starting at Sothearos Boulevard and runs westwards, parallell to and one block south of Sihanouk Boulevard.

One of the good things of being on the 5:th floor is of course that it comes with a great view;
The view from the terrace to the northwest, where you see Independence Monument and Wat Langka

This is street 294, seen from the terrace, going west to the neighbourhood Baeng Keng Kong 1...

...and east, towards the river.

When entering the flat (from the left in this picture), there´s a large open space with a combined kitchen- and livingroom area.
From the kitchen you reach the rear balcony, which has a beautiful view towards the north, in the direction of Hun Sen Park and the Royal Palace
And voilá; on the balcony there´s also a washing machine!A modernity that one can´t take for granted here in Cambodia, so I´m very happy for it. In my previous apartment, the clothes had to be washed by hand or taken to a laundry. For some reasons, most washing machines here are installed outside of the building. Don´t ask me why. Another strange thing is that it´s not possible to programme different temperatures on this model. And as it´s connected to a water tap with lukewarm water only; lukewarm washing it is... But it´s still a luxury!

The guest room, waiting for guests to accomodate :-)

From the livingroom, you open the door out to the lovely, spacious terrace...



In the apartment, there´s also a master bedroom, a master bathroom and a guest bathroom as well. But no pictures of those. Some things I need to keep to myself... ;-)
