    This is where we are living now, one week down two to go! We work 25 hours a week for a dorm bed and breakfast, but on weekends We need to change to the big dorm as the hostel is usually full. This weekend there was a large group in the room, they were awful. 30 year old dutch men, who partied half the night, came back to continue the party in the room, light on, taking loudly. And when they did eventually go to bed they farted all night and still talked really loud. Also we got bed bugs!! So no sleep this weekend! ! Kind of cruel putting us in this massive dorm and poor Joel had to work at 7 this morning.

    The work is not too bad, mostly cleaning, but they are really pedantic. They always check that you are doing a good job and want everything really clean, really quick, which is not really possible. I'm also working as a nanny 25 hours a week so this week I will be working 50 hours! And probably changing rooms three times and I won't get to see Joely much since we never work together. I'm a bit stressed as I also have two more potential babysitting jobs which would be perfect and I have no time to find somewhere to live. I'm going to ask the hostel today if I can work less and pay for a long stay room. I think it will all be too much, and I really don't want to turn down paid work.

    In general the hostel is quite good. The other work stayers are really nice, Rodrigo from Brazil and lnma from Spain. There are guitars and a pool table so Joel is happy :) it's close to the beach, which is nice to look at ;) one night the owner was is in a really good mood and we actually got free beers! And he paid for us to go out to a club near by called the crazy piano. It was a lot of fun! Work the next day wasn't.
