A long time and alot of changes, but looking forward to the future;)

So this little blogger has been awol for a while. Mainly due to laziness, and also the fact i cant really thin of anything to blog about. The last year has been crazy, and i've had many changes in my life, some big, and some small...lets not go into details, those who know me, will know the changes. Instead of writing about my life and crap, my first article in a while will be about what i think of Poland, moreover Kraków now. I think that i have been here long enough to base a few opinions. First of all i'm gonna start with the food. I take great offense when someone has a go at British food, imagining that its all fish and chip, bacon and eggs ect. 
But come on, from a nation that is proud of Bigos, which is basically a tin of cabbage and sausage, preserved in yucky vinegar! It really does taste li
ke taking your socks off after playing a game of football, and sucking the liquid sweat out of them. Most Polish food i like, i just have an exception with this, and Polish cheese. Isn't cheese meant to be a taste of the local land (a bit like good whisky?). Why does it all taste the same? No matter what i order, its bloody gouda, and by gouda i mean, plastic immatation cheese. For a country which prides itself on not using any preservatives, this is fucked up.

So if you are thinking i'm bitching about this country, then think again, i love it here! Maybe ask me why i haven't been home to see my family in Scotland for many a year, then you might get to know the truth. 
This weekend has been Juwenalia, when the students of the city get the keys of the city. Basically to do what they want, without getting arrested. I had 2 big parties, on Thursday with my mate and his very likable friends, and Friday at a huge bash with thousands of people lighting BBQ's and drinking vast amounts of vodka listen to an open air concert. This is really what i come to love about here, the fact that new people you meet will become friends when you share fun together, and that i can hold a drink with the hardest of Poles, and that is a tough thing to do, i guess i've had good training :D

So now a new week begins, head down and look forward to where i will be next, maybe your place? maybe somewhere else, we shall see what the future brings, but the futures bright, don't you forget it;)

And no, i can't be assed correcting whatever in this article :)
