So today marks two months in Brussels for me. I have learned very little French, slightly more Dutch and quite a bit about myself. Moving to a foreign country is like nothing I have ever experienced before. I have lived away from family for the past 12 years but none of my cross country moves gave me everything I needed to prepare for this adventure. I would say each move gave me a little piece that I would need but none gave me all of them.
I am going to sound like a twelve step program for a moment but they have the right idea when they say, "one day at a time".
The biggest lesson I have learned during this two months is to appreciate the little things. Each day I try to take a moment to appreciate something, someone, anything. Here is a short list of of some of my "little things":
 |
| Finding a craft store 5 minutes from my house |
 |
| Making mochi and tasting Hawaii for a week. |
 |
| New yoga pants (bonus: came form a package from my mama) |
|
|
|
|
 |
| Crazy cheap (good) beer |
 |
| Fall Colors |
 |
| Kinder Eggs! |
