Great BBQ day in Spring




It's spring time here in Belgium, the sun starts to shine more often as well as people here getting out of their house more often then during the winter. Just like me and all of my friends, recently we had a great time in a friend house for a bbq. It was a lovely Sunday afternoon and luck was on our side as the sun shine thru out the day. We had great time together burning chacoal at the back of the house in a lovely garden with a glass of red wine in our hands. Everyone brought different kind of meat to cook on the bbq pit and share among friends. My wife seems to look happier as the season changes and the tempearture gets higher. She's getting used of living here in Belgium even though at first she was not too keen of the winter. She is more relaxed and making more friends then I do which makes me happy. I can't wait to take my wife around Belgium during the summer to explore the beautiful site of Belgium.

End of Summer and Autumn begins

Say goodbye to this year’s summer and welcome the cold autumn. Anyway this year’s summer was not that great, it was sunny but sometimes it was very cold. Autumn starts on the 21st of september here in Belgium, its when leaves dry and fall and most of the trees will go naked and everything will look dull and gray.

After living in asia for a couple of years I almost forgot whats the weather like here, in Belgium. It’s getting colder and cloudier each day. I had to put on thicker clothes everytime I leave the house to work and today its raining and I’m sure it will continue raining much longer as winter is just around the corner.

At least now my wife has something to shop for, to get herself ready for the winter. My wife didn’t complain about the rain yet, I bet she likes the rain more than I do, but once in a while she does complain about the temperature. It must be pretty cold for her now and she must be wondering what would it be like when the winter comes. She told me that she’s looking forward to the winter hopefully there would be some snow falling, it would be nice for her to see the snow and feel it for the first time in her life.

As for me, at least the weather reminds me where I came from and to be honest I’m glad to be home with my wife to show her the ground where I grew up and what my culture is all about.

Rain Is Falling

Still here in cold Belgium.

Six more days and we have our own appartment.
The first of September I also start working.
We hope to have everything sorted out by the end of next week.

We are still looking for good places to eat but soon we can prepare our own meals, looking forward to eat some spicy curry!

And while the weather takes a big turn here every 10 minutes and we experience the four seasons in one day, we here that it rains almost every day Singapore.

I almost start thinking that Singapore is crying for us.

No Maggi Noodles here in Belgium, so we might order a case to be send to us.

Miss you Singapore.

Cold Belgium

After more then three and a half years finally landed again in Belgium.

After such a long time it was a bit of a shock and freezing cold!

It is the first time for my wife and she quite excited.

It is a lot of adjusting but we will manage.

We wont be in Singapore for a while but we know that we will return next year.

For now I wish all the best to all the people we met in Singapore.

Greetings from Belgium.
