Being an expatriate...

I find it difficult to do something regularly. I find it difficult to write my ideas down. I find it difficult to talk about something else than food very often. Hopefully, starting a little piece of writing about food will help me with these difficulties. They are not the only weaknesses I have, but they seem to be easier to mend than any other issues. 

At present, I live in Bruxelles. I consider myself to be an always moving expatriate. I study in Spain and I am here on an internship. I have already been in a colocation with nine other very amusing interns, however recently, I moved into a tiny little room in an old building in the centre of Bruxelles. Room with a wardrobe, a bed, a lamp and a desk only. A room perfect for writing if one doesn't consider late night violin practice of their neighbor disturbing. 
I share a bathroom, kitchen and living room with a lovely woman from Argentina. I spend most of my time in my little room on the mezzanine, bur the light coming and the view from our kitchen is just amazing. I often find myself sitting in the window and sipping milk out of my mug while waiting for water to boil.  

With my limited budget I can truthfully say that I spend all money I have on food. I can't really afford to spend it on anything else, but I don't mind. Food is my one real weakness. I don't think of it as mere fuel. It can be an inspiration that lightens up one's day. 

I have not yet reached the stage when I would consider myself ready to share my ideas and recipes, but till then I can share photos of my creations and all the things that I experience in life. I know it might be a little boring, but I will try to improve :-)
