Moving Again

I'm constantly learning new things about Peru. Today I discovered that hardware stores don't have paint chips that you can take home with you. I'm moving into a new apartment sometime next week and it is in need of a little makeover. With approval to get the apartment painted, I was quite excited to go pick out a bunch of colors to see how they looked in the apartment.

That's not how Peruvian's do it. From what we could tell, all of the paint on the shelf is white and you choose what color you mix and they mix it for you. Nothing was pre-colored on the shelf.

My friend (soon to be neighbor) Amber and I picked out a new color, and hopefully it will look good. It's hard to know how bright the creamy yellow shade that we picked will look. Pictures to come as the apartment gets painted and I get settled into my new home.
