This post will be short and boring. It is a little bit sad that I am here less than 3 weeks and already run out of things “what’s wrong with Portugese people”. No surprises this week. No strange habits, unusual eating combination or shortages of basic hygienic stuff. Maybe one. But it is a fact I consider as a difference no a weirdness. The size of beers. Poland is boring. All beers 0,5l. Maybe Desperados breaks the rule. But besides that one, all beers in cans, bottles, bars, the same size. No more, no less. Here we have diversity. And actually I haven’t seen any beer which is 0,5l. The most common is 0,33l but it is easy to meet 0,25 and 1l as well. And wine is much cheaper than in Poland. That’s it, end of the alcohols comparison.
No surprises and amazements probably means that I already got used to Portugal, Rato, Laranjeiro, Miratejo, apartment and so on. And from now only boredom and routine. Work, apartment, cooking dinners and cleaning. Haha ok, maybe not sooo bad.
I truly did not want to write like where I went and what I did during last few days. But because of the lack of the inspiration, I do not have an option, I guess.
So, I was in the beach, finally got some tan, saw how fishermen fished fish (that part of the sentence is quite funny) in the ocean. I did a short cycling tour (thank you Andre for fixing our bikes!), cooked million pierogi (for international need I do not inflect that word) and have been on jazz night in great café/pub? I do not know how to name it. Not so bad week I would say.
Maybe I will come back to fish. Huge net, two tractors, thousands of seagulls and a ray. Interesting view.
Finally, I have an idea for a topic! Communicating in English. Even if you speak English perfectly there are some words that no normal person ever knows. I mean it is always very funny when we want to go somewhere and talk about it, we need phrases like on the bay, basin, peninsula or backflow (yes I checked the words for the use of the blog, writing is so developing) and the way we explain that kind of things should be recorder. Seriously.” You know the island which is not an island and have water in the three sides, how it is, you know, don’t you?” And everyone is doing “aaaaaa”. And the worst part: when everyone understood and only you are stupid and have no idea what are they talking about. Brilliant.
So, what I want to say is if you know all the words I write up and did not have to check any of them, you should know that something is wrong with you. Really, go for a beer or something and better consider your life.
Funny, funny.
I promised that this post won’t be long so let’s finish with this barrel of laughs.
I will try harder to make up more interesting subjects next time.
See you!
