Inside Chez moi Aug 10 2009 at 2:18pm EDT The inside of my house featured a main room, kitchen, two bedrooms and a closet. I dug a two-inch hole through the closet at the base of the exterieur wall where water could evacuate, thus transforming the space into an interieur wash room. The house's floors were cement, and the walls were white washed. Bars were fitted in the windows to keep intruders and larger animals out. I added my own decorating touches by sewing curtains out of local fabric, hanging batik artwork I bought in the market, and commissioning furniture from neighborhood artisans -- most of which I painted black. It was a really cool place!
