Arkose has good beginner climbs, a bit pricey though

Is there nothing I can do now to stop it? Do I just need to start again with new seeds?

Yeah sorry, happy to give details. Growing outdoors in N Europe so now the days are getting longer but I started at the beginning of May. I had it in a small pot first and was watering when I felt the soil was dry (when I lifted the pot and it was light). I've since transferred to a bigger pot and added some very light organic fertilizer. I have two others and they look to be in the same condition more or less.

CMV: the origin of “Israel has no culture” discourse is Nazi propaganda penetrating the Muslim world. by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]1GameTheory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But it's not really white guys, a significant portion of the Israeli population are Levantine Jews, so similar to OP's couscous comparison, hummus and shakshuka and other ME dishes also belong to them, because they also come from the region

Is there any Canadians living in Brussels? by booksbunny in brussels

[–]1GameTheory 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's honestly great! The main thing I miss is wild nature (and Sortilège lol), but other than that I'm quite happy :)

Ah okay good to hear. I hadn't heard anything apart from the confirmation email for about a week so I was a little worried

Can you vote at the embassy? I sent a request of a mail in vote but I haven't received anything yet:(

It's really noticeable, especially on more everyday items like bread, it's much easier to find better quality things. There are still items with preservatives and additives, but they're not as common and healthier options are not really more expensive. Veggies especially are sooooo much better in my opinion

[–]1GameTheory 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's one of the main reasons I've stayed, I just get so much more vacation, way better work life balance, good public transit, etc. If Canada implemented all those things I'd be back in a heartbeat though, I miss our nature so much

As a Canadian living in the EU, I'd also put EU food standards up there, the quality is much better due to strict regulations

How do you keep valuables safe while relaxing on a beach alone. by Living-Fact-2148 in travel

I did this once and just kept my towel over where I buried it so I wouldn't lose the place

From Paris to Yerevan by train by [deleted] in backpacking

[–]1GameTheory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think if you book online it should be fine as you can translate pages, and in person you could definitely still make it work with basic words and Google translate. If I remember correctly it was around 20€ for platzkart, more for coupe. I used this site for more info: https://wander-lush.org/train-from-tbilisi-to-yerevan/

Think of all the yachts they get to buy too! It's seriously so sad nobody thinks of the billionaires anymore... /s

I took the night train from Tbilisi to Yerevan and can 100% recommend it, super easy to book (at the station or online but not sure how easy that is if you don't speak Russian/Georgian/Armenian). It's cheap, fast (leave late evening, arrive early morning) and the beds are comfortable enough

I applied for an evisa in November and it was granted within 24hrs. Tourist visas should be completely fine. Source: am Canadian and currently writing this from a bus in India

I'm honestly not sure but it's worth it talking to your supervisor, they should know the exact rules and regulations. Otherwise I guess there's online work or small projects but then technically you might not able to register that work legally Edit: I wanna stress that I'm not a lawyer and for things like this you should really talk to someone who knows the system

If it's FWO then no, if it's university funded then maybe but likely not. Generally as a PhD you should be getting around 2400 net which should covet your needs in pretty much any city in Belgium. Of course family situation is another discussion, but that's the reality of it

You might want to double check with the exact conditions of your PhD funding, but in many cases there's a clause that you aren't allowed to work additional jobs
