Leaving Texas

Didn't manage to write anything more... but there's not much to tell. Texas. Training, being busy all the time... eating, shopping. Eating, shoping. It's a shopping para... no, shopping hell. You don't need anything, but you come in, just not to stand outside alone for an hour... and then you buy. And buy. And buy. Because it's cheaper, because it IS. Damn! 

And then you go eat... any cuisine you want... a bit in American way, but who cares? It's huge, it's good, and here in Texas it's damn far from being healthy... was hard to be vegeterian here. Not that surrounding smell of steaks was making me hungry... it simply was hard to get anything without meat.

So I've just made last minute shopping I didn't need at all, packed my stuff... going to sleep... and tomorrow the REAL thing starts. I'm SO excited. Still, even thou I know already how my job will look like... and it won't be so easy going.

The new adventure. The new life...

So it happened to me that I founf myself in Grapevine, TX, US. How come? I got a job, the company sends me for a year to Accra, Ghana. And on the way I have a training in Texas. And that's the whole story. Amen.

Don't ask what I do. They pay me enough.  And it's GHANA. Who would ever go to Ghana? You see? Couldn't choose better.

The story started yesterday, when before 8 am. I took a seat  in LO flight to LHR. Spent there few hours, and travelled to Atlanta. Saw there a piece of airport - terminal E and B. And eventually got to Dallas. Which in the fact is a small town near the airport, not the city itself. Grapevine. Anything that comes to your mind about Grapevine? Oh yeah, grapes. Wines. Didn't try them. Yet. But I will, no worries.

What is Grapevine? Imagine a wild west town... like from western movies... then add highways, shopping malls and seven eleven. Yes. here I am. Grapevine.

So they've got a historical site here, museum, a few wineries, used cowboy shoes store. And the smell of grilled steaks surrounds you from 10 am. And you can take a ride with an old fashioned train here! So COOL! :D

I was always fighting with stereotypical views but here... it is exactly like in the movies. And we went for dinner to Italian restaurant -  the food was ok, but the restaurant? Looked like TGI Fridays!!! And the amounts of food... I should take it all to Ghana... they will make better use of all that food  we were not able to eat...

More info tomorrow, now I have to get rid of the rest of jet lag...
