Our Jungle Home / Office

What a wonderful place we have to live and work in, particularly given that it's pretty much in the middle of the jungle. Sure, there are the minor drawbacks such as the occasional deadly snake and the pack of stray dogs that hang out at the front gate, but in the bigger scheme of things, our home away from home is a pretty nice place.

After six plus years of dealing with the traffic in and around DC, I have to tell you that I absolutely love my commute here. It's a total of about 100 or so feet from the front door of my apartment to the office downstairs, making my daily commute about 45 seconds. And, as if that weren't already the "crème de la crème," we even have a washer and dryer in our office! Whoa! I finally feel as though I've arrived; that all those people working from home that I used to envy have nothing on me now -- even if it did require that a move to West Africa to get there.

So here's the view from the front...






And here's the back yard....





And here's the road in front...

And the inactive volcano a bit further to the south (as seen from our third floor)...
