It is a very surreal head space that I am in right now..after being in this magical little town twice as a visitor, I am about to experience it for the first time as " A Local".. Karen has already taken me to tea in one of her favourite food kitchens.. Where "the good thing about this place is" according to Karen, is that after a long busy day, you don't have to decide what to choose from the menu as the food just gets brought out to you, and you just Start Eating,...and don't stop til you're full!!! So we did. And then I asked Karen if I could pay.....without having any idea what anything cost...and the bill (including 2 cokes) came to $5.20.
I've only been in town for a few hrs and already I've met so many team members, looked thru a room for rent, been invited to a family dinner tomorrow night. And an expat night on Friday night, made plans to go with Karen and Phuong to get a massage from blind people (apparently Amazing) 1 hr for $2.50 on Sunday afternoon. And then been taken out for 15 cent beers after the shop closed tonight at 9pm...
Not bad for a first day.....(half day).......Life could be worse......Miss you All xx hugs mumma bear
