a new start

Wow,

Well, this sure is a new start for me. I am hoping to get back into writing. For many reasons, but mostly at this point, to keep me busy and sane while looking for a job, adjusting to a new culture, language, and relationship.

I have moved to Paris. Just like that.

It is a little overwhelming, but I know I can do it.

I have been sussing out restaurants, shops etc, but my most interesting experience so far has been trying to match my daily routines in Canada with certain vitamins, supplements, bath routines and essential oils, with my life here. The rules and regulations here are so incredibly insanely strict that it continues to blow my mind. Just when I think I have understood it, I go looking for something else and find out you can't get it here. Simple example, Epsom Salts. Salts for a bath. SALTS for a BATH! I cannot find them here. This list could get very long, but at the moment I have made a rule with myself that by 11am I will preparing to head out for a walk to explore a new part of the city, before I find myself looking at the clock at 2pm, or should I say 14:00 and realizing I still havent exited my pjs.

So, I will write more later.
I am off to explore, and probably eat some bread and macarrons.

I thought I lost my blog, and am very happy to be back here, and find comfort in writing.

Oh, I also hope to find a job in my exploring. This place aint cheap.
