postais postcards from lisbon, for avó

the room

· 1 min

You asked about where I live. I share a room with four other guys from the restaurant. 900 a month for the room, split five ways. It's the crisis.

Two of them snore. One talks in his sleep, in Portuguese and something else. The fourth is Nuno, who gets up at five and makes coffee for everyone without being asked.

Nuno's coffee is terrible. I drink it every morning anyway.
