on the pre-movie-shooting stage

I have been in Brussels for more than a week. I started a new life. How is it going? Not as exciting as I thought. The city is nice but not exciting. No thrilling social life yet. The job is going fine but is a bit stressful from time to time (or I'm too stressed because I probably exaggerate). Driving my car in Brussels was hell during my first few days. Now, it's much better. I had a short but strong crisis somewhere in the middle of the week. It's much better now. I will go out tonight (third night in a row) although none of these gatherings was as great as some in Morocco. I guess it's just the matter of time and meeting new cool people.

I compared my feelings with the feelings that I had when I finished my first week in Morocco - It’s more than one week that I’m in Morocco and still I cannot believe that I’m here. Everything is just so amazing and different (...) Generally speaking, I like Morocco very much and enjoy every minute here. I didn’t have any breakdown, homesickness or depression. Today, after coming back from trip to Fes (exciting and exhausting), when I entered my flat I just felt like at home. It’s my new home for now. I cannot write it here. I was more happier then than now. Maybe, because that was my first international experience. Maybe, because the country was so different. Maybe, because I didn't have a serious 9 to 5 job there and life was so stressless. Or maybe because I didn't have so many high expectations as I have right now. Probably, a bit of all. But I know I need to change my expectations. Or maybe not the expectations themselves but I should definitely give them some time in order to be accomplished. Because they will be eventually. 

No question about it.
