The apartment is fully furnished, right down to the dishes, meaning that we don't have to bring any of that stuff with us. This is EXCELLENT. More car space for my clothes! No, just kidding. I will probably be leaving a good chunk of my clothes up north, too. One of the things I'm really looking forward to is the fact that we'll be able shed a lot of our belongings--even if it is only temporary.
Another excellent thing will be our view. The Zoochi House is right at the top of the hill that overlooks the valley where the cows are pastured and where some of the settlement buildings are. We saw it only once, when it was snowy-ish, but I am imagining that it is also beautiful in the spring, summer, and fall!
The only disappointing thing is that we can't take Amelie with us--Henderson Settlement doesn't allow pets in the volunteer housing. I don't blame them at all, but it would've been nice to be able to have our cat back! We'll just have to look extra hard for cat-friendly housing when we return. Or....is anyone out there looking for a feline friend?
