Where Am I?

My Expat-terns

89. No matter where you are or where you all come from, talk to your roommates/suite-mates/partners about what bothers you. Do not let any situation between you all get out of hand.
117. The sprinkles are a must try in Sweden. It’s the little things in life.
40. Do not harass Canadians. Don’t make fun of their stereotypical polite image. The majority are just fabulous, friendly people. You should be so lucky to be Canadian.
16. You don’t need to “dress to impress”, but make an effort to blend into the culture. Wear a scarf, shave, and/or loss the sneakers when appropriate.
93. Make friends with the food truck workers. They are saints.
48. Sometimes life will lead you into a drum circle. Just accept it at this point.
51. You can find the brightest light even in the sheerest darkness. I promise.
104. Vancouver has a bed bug problem. Trust me.
109. It is common in Rwandan culture to have one or two personal talents. What are your talents?
110. Tel Aviv is literally the gayest place ever. Ever. As in, there are so many gay people.

@zarakvancouver is a lovely experience with Afghan @zarakvancouver is a lovely experience with Afghan cuisine 🇦🇫 (افغان پخلی/آشپزی افغانی)

Try mantou, kebab, palaw, and saffron tea, portions perfect for sharing!

Service is impeccable and kind, with a perhaps overly organized reservation system xoxo
