A good day to start again....

In this world, there are more good people than not so good people. I experienced this today as I set out on a warm sunny day in Amsterdam.There was the landlord and the makelaar who ditched me badly at the last minute, totally destroying my ideas of moving into me dream apartment. And then there was a stranger who offered me water and brought me tissue paper to wipe off my sweat. There were friends who cheered me up with the thought that there were better apartments waiting for me, and then gave me detailed instructions on how to find another makelaar.There were saleswomen who believed (and made me believe) that I looked really sexy in the dress they were trying to sell to me. And there was this lebanese girl who whole-heartedly agreed when I said that I was not a great fan of the sun, by saying that she too preferred winter to the bright and sunny 30 degrees today!

Thats when I decided to re start my blog when I got back home....
Living in Amsterdam continues to offer me so many opportuntities to experience human behavior in all its colours, shapes and sizes, and I would be a fool if I did not use this medium to reflect on it!
So here goes......
