Since
the university didn't offer a place to stay for Tucker when we first
arrived, he arranged alternative accommodation with his friends in
town. Tucker stayed with Taziff and his family for a couple of nights
and then moved to Alie's as soon as I arrived, Taziff's place being
too cramped already.

Alie's
house, still under construction, is in the Texaco junction area, a
long ways east of downtown. We're just behind the buzzing Central
lorry park (bus terminal to most destinations throughout the
country), but one would never guess so: with views to the open sea,
surrounded by trees, unpaved paths (can't really call them streets),
birds singing, sea breeze, the sound of the tide moving in and out...
can't ask for a better place to stay in such a big city.

We
don't have running water or electricity, except for the occasional
generator time we use to charge up our laptops.
