I'm alive!

Whoa! I have survived the first week in Cork, Ireland. Feeling overwhelmed with mostly everything. Or how the saying goes down here: I'm doing grand! And I have to say it out loud: the Irish hospitality is fantastic.

Some small facts

• If you wonder about the battle between Guinness and Murphy's - Murphy's is the winner! Damn that beer is delicious. 
• It does rain a lot here. Sometimes the rain stops for 10 minutes. My shoes are never dry. 
• The department store Brown Thomas sells Acne and YSL. HALLELUJAH! 
• Irish kitchen is not only about fish and chips. You can also get fresh fish, salads, soups and dark bread. Finally normal food to eat.
• I have gone through hell finding a place to live. Yet, I'm kind a hobo, but not for long.
• One apartment can literally be 3 floors. If you're claustrophobic and moving to Cork. Get help before relocating.
• My colleague told me that I'm already pronouncing some words with an Irish accent. Hey, I'm a fast learner. 
• The weather is the main thing to talk about :)!
• So far so good and I'm loving it! No regrets what so ever.
• And the best for last: Apple, Apple & Apple! 

More update coming up. Keep tight.

PS. Heidi and the Aussie lads - Thank you all for the great weekend. Without you my first expression of Cork wouldn't have been this wonderful. X
