The kindness of others

This is a bit of an 'ould mushy post so if you're sensitive to this stuff better not look down!

Up until Wednesday I had been suffering from notgettingpaid-itis something not even eating kilo-upon kilo of pasta for the last while could save me from, but I got a really nice little pick me up on Tuesday.

One of my neighbors was moving out and had a couple of things from the kitchen and other bits and bobs that she would be throwing out so instead offered them to me, she could have just as easily thrown them out without having to knock on my door and suffer me stutter in french. I can hear you all ready asking why bother my arse talking about such a small thing.

It highlighted something that I had been feeling for a while, the overall friendliness of the people here in Annecy. Almost everyday I find myself smiling about some small gesture that someone has done for me, whether it be telling me about a different spot to skate or just pointing me in the right direction while I was looking lost it all adds up!


 She knew I was new here so she included some event guides and I even get these green yokes for a while!
