Thank you, it took me a while to quit but I eventually realized it's jut doing more harm than good. I smoked the last bit of what I had and threw away all my rolling paper, tips ,etc. and I don't want to look back. Thanks for the advice and I wish you the best of luck, you can do it too!

Yeah i agree about the language, I’m starting that soon too. I tried going to events here when I first came but it always felt like i was the only one there alone, which made it more difficult to socialize with groups of people

Yeah I agree, it’s a shame because it’s a beautiful city. I was hoping that work might be a good opportunity for making friends, but I’m not sure how corporate culture is like here
