I love that feeling of having arrived in a new city, a new county. Not as a visitor but to stay. For me, it changes everything, the knowledge of not being a visitor anymore. Walking around, taking possession. Mapping the place. There's a barber I think I'll frequent. A place where to get decent tea. A baker, a greengrocer, a fishmonger (ok, so I love cooking). I still remember the cold, rainy February morning when I first arrived in London. Two bags and rucksack. Breakfast with a friend, Cafe Grove on the Portobello Road. The windows steamed up, huge cappuccinos in chipped china mugs. There's nothing quite like the magic of these first few weeks. Enjoy. Nice one mate.
