Home, At Last

Finally i'm back in the blogosphere after a few days of hiatus. Our flight last sunday was a smooth one. We don't encounter any problem with our luggage though we do have stopover in Kuwait and Bangkok. My children picked us up at the airport. We were also able to meet one of the contractor for our house the next day.

The first days of our stay here in my nativeland were spent stuffing the house with our kitchen and other personal needs. Our rented house now looks nicer and Dirk was able to complete our office needs.

Below and above is our rented house which is now 95% furnished, four days going from one malls to another to buy stuff for the house.

Since Dirk was not yet familiar with the way of driving here, we hire a driver to be familiar with streets and metro traffic. Now, Dirk can drive on his own and getting used to traffic situation.

Lunch and dinner the past days were at the shopping mall and restaurants. The other day, my visiting brother in law from the US also invited us to have lunch with them. He proudly showed us his big christmas tree imported from US which already reach the ceiling of their house.


Indeed, our fews days here were all actions and our body slowly recovering from jetlag and time difference. Today, is the first time that i cooked for Dirk, he liked very much the fried tilapia and lapu lapu. I enjoyed very much buying and bargaining in the market which i was not able to do for a long time. Theres really no place like home.

Just ignore the size, when easts meets west, size doesnt matter and what is important is the happiness that we have.
