I don’t know whether to tick this off or not because it’s now october and I can write very well now but I don’t get as much practice in speaking therefore it’s lagging. What did I mean by ok anyway? Silly undefined goal. I’ll tick it off cos I guess I’m where I was hoping I’d be.

How I did it: I cooked fetticine pasta with a basil and brie sauce. The recipe is hereMy bf and his mum really liked it xD Read how I did it…

How I did it: I recently moved to somewhere near amsterdam and so of course in the red light district there are sex shops a plenty. My friend had never been in a sex shop and i'd only been in the bookshop part of a sex shop and ann summers (if that counts) so we've been in loads in the past 2 months. I went to a festival here and they even had a stall selling dildos! Only in holland, ey! Read how I did it…

Been to:
France
Netherlands – living here now
Italy
Austria
Spain

Germany
It would make sense to go to Belgium next since it’s only a train ride away but I don’t have that much interest in the country and I’m dreaming of the Scandinavian countries.
I’ve moved to a 6 or 7/10 on the calmness scale. it’s only occasional anxiety and related to specific events rather than chronic and existential cos now i’m making changes!
