    A-Z Places

    What foods do you eat repetitively every single day?

    If I am at home, every morning I make ellinikos kafes / türk kahvesi. If I am away from home I often have to resort to a doppio. The other thing I have every morning is greek yogurt. When I am travelling I will often seek out small containers of this from supermarkets, one for each morning.

    True or False

    There is a tawny frogmouth that sits on top of the kitchen window, especially when it rains, but it is not a pet bird. You are not comfortable with who you are, but wish you were.

    What I find helpful: Sit comfortably. Whatever works for you. Close your eyes. Breath. Focus on your breathing. Iiiinnnn. Hold. Ooouuuttt. Empty your mind of anything else. Repeat.

    Don't Be Shy To Introduce Yourself

    @Tiger, I have spent a couple of months or more in Scandinavia over the years. This was the area of my first, major overseas trip - way back in the 70’s. It still holds a special place in my heart, and I would love to visit yet again one day. Whereabouts, generally, are you from?
