a very good season

The new season is here! I am having way more fun than in the previous one. I went to Paris and Istanbul (a wine glass in the left hand, a cigarette in the right hand while standing and enjoying the view from the balcony overlooking Aya Sofia and the Blue Mosque) and it was fab! (wait! am I having more fun because I am out of Brussels?!?!).

The month of November is sponsored by the letter R that means reunions! Reunions with my friends living all over the world – I managed to meet Charles (my Chinese friend met in Morocco) and Noellie (ultra fabulous friend from Morocco) and bien sûr my habibi in Turkey.

Yesterday, we officially started les Oudayas reunion of some of my most precious flat mates from my last house in Rabat. The reunion commenced in the bar/restaurant Havana where Olga and I had a dinner and a drink last night. We got inside and were promptly asked for the password through which we had to prove that we were expats coming for the after work party for expats. Upon saying my name I was already recognized by the owner who remembered me from emails regarding reserving the table and handed me in my membership card (fab fab fab!). We had the great dinner and although party was pretty calm we had a blast eating, catching up and toasting to our great lives.

Today, new people are coming and another cool party to be attended.

More friends and more trips (Marseille, Amsterdam and Paris) in the next 2 months to come! Job is fine. Money is fine. Studies are fine. Tout va bien!

It’s a very good season.
