Paradise or Hell......

Till the 15th of this month when the International student house will be remodelled we have been transferred to a catholic monastery, run by a seventy year old Jezuit priest, Father Joe, who looks like he hasn't washed for those last seventy years. We're in a room sharing with 8 people, no airconditioning (it's 32 degrees here), one bathroom, one toilet japanese styl (i.e. hole in the ground) and with a curfew. Doors close at 10.30 pm, lights out and no talking after 11.00 pm. I think thatI'm a little too old for this......

Needless to say everybody is very dissatisfied....

Did have a nice dinner last night together with Yoshi, a Japanese guy we picked up on a streetcar, whoo has studied in Delft for a couple of years. Ate jellyfish for the first time and it was delicious...!! Beers are a little expensive here (550 yen = 4 euro per glass).

Here is the gang on Dejima wharf enjoying the scenery and a beer.

Will let you know more soon..will I have moved to a hotel for 14 days or stay in Paradise?

I miss my good life in Amsterdam.....
