The world is quite small

Yes, small and there is a lot of coincidences...
Since I have been living down under, on the opposite side of a world a few funny
coincidences have happened to me or to my friends, whom I consider like my family now.

1. Mutual friend..?
That was during my first month in Sydney in language school.
With my classmate Monika from Denmark we were talking about
our family trees as once it was topic of that lesson. I was telling
her some facts about my family, like that we used to live in Prague
and later we moved behind...She replied - I have one friend in Prague!
Me: "Really, who is it?" (Considering fact that Prague has 1 milion inhabitants
I was more polite to keep the converstation than I was really intersted in).
"Markéta" she replied. As I knew that Monika was in Spain for erasmus
I just guessed - Markéta Chalupová, which was in Spain for erasmus too.
And Monika just confirmed my guess...Seriously, are you telling me that
both of us we could meet in Spain... (Monika and Marketa were in Cordoba
and I was in Seville, however I visited Cordoba twice and everytime
I did so I always saw Markete)...You from Denmark, me from Czech
we have a mutual friend from Spain and we meet in Australia...thats crazy :)

2.I won´t go to school untill some hansome guy pass by
 One afternoon we were loitering in front of some building in cbd, drinking coffee with
Eva and Ales. Eva was about to going back to school, but obviously she didnt want
so much. So she said: I wont go to school till some nice guy pass by, as we were
watching people passing and honestly, no lookers. Then I saw quite hot guy and told
Eva, hey, look at that bloke. And Eva "Are you kidding me...? Thats Sean!"
Me and Ales looked at each others with expression, "Who the hell is Sean?"
Sean was an australian guy who Eva had met in Prague in some bar like only
one month before our flight to Sydney, so they exchange contacts...They have never met
before, untill that day :)

3. School mate from grammar school
How often does it happen that in train you sit behind your exclass mate
on the second side of the world...? That happend to Eva as well....she has
know that he has been here for more than two years...and whats more funny.
Marek works at construction site in the same street where Eva lives..

4. Girl from summer camp
For our 6months anniversary we went to Tommys bar to grab delicious
czech food. And the waitress which served us was familiar to Tomas...
Also she remided me someone as well...But after Tom realized that he has known
her from summer camp where he used to be an instructor for the children
so that girl was one from many he took care about....

So, where else you can hide if you can meet people from Rudna and Tabor here...? Nowhere
maybe on Mars...

It´s about the little things

It is quite difficult to capture or describe that nice feeling of happiness...At least for me as I´m not a writer and even more difficult in foreign language...Anyway....what really did make my day today then I´ve felt good and/or happy?

At first I could prepare breakfast for Tom. I normally don´t prepare breakfast for him during labour week. And that satisfied expression at his face made me really happy.

Another nice moment was in 7/11 shop where I went to buy my one dolar coffee and one guy made me a compliment....Here in Australia I consider it quite unusual, not like in Spain where was normal that boys on the street were shouting and whistling to you "Hey guapa" (Ok,  more to my blond friend)...so by the time it has become more annoying than appreciating....But honestly here in Australia it has happened for the first time after 9 months to obtain compliment on the street.

And the third was really special...I was walking down the street and I noticed 2 girls in the second floor´s shopping window...They were waving and smiling...I thought that someone is walking behind me so I ignored them. But in a second I had turned my head and saw nobody there. So I waved and smile back...Then one of them made a gesture "thumbs up" and pointed her smile....They were literally handing out smiles to people.

I hate clichés but I have no choice than to close my feed with one - the best things are for free :)

Mikrovlnná trouba - vynález tisíciletí

Jak Španělé vaří...? Moc nevaří, chodí na všechny jídla, občas i snídaně, do restaurací a hostinců.
Když už, tak téměř všechno dělají na pánvi, (pokud to v tom olivovym oleji přímo neplave, je ho tam málo) a nebo, to mě dostalo nejvíc - v mikrovlnce!
Ze začátku jsem vůči tomu byla dost skeptická - vařit si vodu na čaj nebo kafe v mikrovlnce...No jo, jenže rychlovarný konvice tu nejsou moc v módě a čekat, než se mi voda uvaří na sporáku...
Ale co je super recept - brambory z mikrovlnky..během 20 minut se vám ze syrovejch brambor uvaří sami, záleží jen na vás, s čim si je dáte - cibule, ryby, zelenina...:-) Je na to potřeba skleněná zapejkací mísa s poklopem..
Už jsem vařila v mikrovlnce i těstoviny nebo noky, prej jde uvařit i rýže, ale to jsem zatím nezkoušela.
http://www.toprecepty.cz/kategorie/30-mikrovlnna-trouba/4/, tady můžete najít recepty jen do mikrovlnky, jedná se spíš o sladký věci, ale najdete tam i dobrý chuťovky...Jsem zvědavá na tu hovězí pečeni :-D

španělský pivo

Nejsem zas tak dobrej pivař, abych mohla soudit...ale tady v andalusii, na jihu, mi to jejich pivo moc nejede...
Slyšela jsem teorii, která vysvětluje, proč to jejich pivo je taková srajda, a docela jí chápu...V létě, když tu mají ty 40°vedra, tak by je český pivo asi skolilo...:-D...výše uvedené se týká hlavně piva Cruzcampo...mě třeba chutná Mahou, který se bohužel moc na jihu nečepuje...
Taky se mi moc nelíbí velikosti skleniček...Půl litry? neznají..maximálně jsem viděla 4ku v jednom oblíbenym řetězci rychlýho občerstvení - 100 montaditos...jinak dostanete spíš do 3,nebo ještě hůř, do dvojky :-D
Tady vidíte Verču a standartní velikost :-D
