Tiled bathroom, what to do at the window?
I have started building the bathroom walls. I am using tongue-and-groove leka blocks, 600x300x86mm, which are hollow for water or electrical pipes. Against the outer wall, the material sequence is as follows:
Tile - waterproof layer - leka - 30mm air gap - building plastic - studs and insulation - exterior panel.
Problems arise at the window; I don't know how to proceed. The wall must somehow connect with the window if I am to tile the reveals. Should I buy some other type of leka or brick and build around the window, or how should it be done? Does anyone know?

Fiber cement might be something
Gypsum doesn't feel relevant since it would be between double moisture barriers in that case. (Even if it's ventilated) THANK YOU for the tip 
How do I attach that board? I'm using Maxit sanerings fix to mortar, is it suitable for fiber cement as well? And maybe some sealant against the window frame?
