Oh what a Night!
Well, its been 2 months since the last post. High time to scribble a bit. 3 brilliant weeks in India, a week in Shanghai, 4 weeks in Italy, a weekend in Brussels and back to Shanghai.
After 4 weeks in Northern Italy, i had the pleasure of spending the the last weekend in Brussels (3 great nights) with Bhattu, Hanna, Dimi, Volodi, Goncalo & Andreia, Adriana was special. All the ingredients of a fine weekend were thrown in.
- Good friends
- Shit loads of fantastic beer (Leffe Blanche, Hoegarden, Delirium Tremens (the killer), Chimay)
- Mussels in Cream sauce (was the first time eating em)
- 3 Euro rum and cokes at Cabra Liego
- L'Express Falafels
- A Fika courtesy Hanna
- Brunch at Le Pain Quotidien
- A surpise when you are walking down a street heading to a bar, and you hear someone shout aloud from a cab "SATHE". It was none other than ex flat mate and friend Malaka Mazarakis
- Fucked up Belgian Capucino with cream (especially after 4 weeks in Italy)
- Casino Royale (Oh what a movie)

Finally returned to Shanghai on Wednesday. After a Boyz Night on Thursday (Indian food, Monte Cristos/Cohibas, Scotch) the Shanghai crew bid farewell to Digs yesterday. Cheap beer, shots, great music (which we had the liberty to pick), at chilled out bar (Eager Beaver). A link to the pictures to come soon.

Just today was thinking to myself....in the last 1 year how many days have i spent in Shanghai? Well dont have the exact number but it doesnt seem to be more than 5 months. Surreal! It all feels a bit wierd! Cant even call it home away from home. Just while you think you are settling down, hanging out with friends its time to head back out! In another 3 weeks i will probably be back in Europe not knowing the return date...could be 1/2/3/4/5...weeks. Rather not dwell too much into this.
For now just looking forward to the trip to Kuinming, Lijiang over new Years with the Shanghai Boyz and Kathleen.
Anyways, its time to get back to World's 10 Flattners.
