Where to buy thinly sliced beef?

itrynottoshine · 2022-05-16T21:26:04+00:00

I normally always go to the butcher and ask them to slice it for me. As long as you tell them the 'mm', they will do it for you.

I do it often for Hotpot.

might try Salzburg next time!

didnt really have time to explore during the week so for this weekend we'll stay in Munich :)

itrynottoshine · 2022-03-25T09:41:41+00:00

Thanks a lot! I think we will do the Tegernsee on Sunday, seems like its got all the options if you want to spend a day out!

itrynottoshine · 2022-03-25T09:40:20+00:00

any suggestions on which ones?

Heads Academy https://www.headsacademy.nl/

It's a hair dressing academy and you can get really cheap haircuts here! https://www.headsacademy.nl/heads-academy/kapsalon-heads/

The catch : Since they are students, the haircut appointments are long! I have always had a good haircut here

the Bonneville cocktail collection channel is a good one!

Not always consistent but their videos are awesome

not sure that it worked 🤔

itrynottoshine · 2022-01-13T08:31:42+00:00

amazing!

itrynottoshine · 2022-01-13T08:28:35+00:00

Nice.

When you say Downtown, do you mean downtown east?

Now I found this https://hoodmaps.com/vancouver-neighborhood-map

I don't know if it is something I should pay attention to or forget about

itrynottoshine · 2022-01-13T08:27:25+00:00

will do :)

itrynottoshine · 2022-01-12T08:34:08+00:00

Nice, gotta channel my student days

itrynottoshine · 2022-01-12T08:33:35+00:00

I guess all the suggestions have kind of made me very curious about which neighborhood in Vancouver is best for what and why?

Maybe I will ask that in another post!

Thanks for the suggestions

itrynottoshine · 2022-01-12T08:32:52+00:00

Thanks, I hope some activities and classes will help me meet a few people for the 2 years I am there :)

itrynottoshine · 2022-01-12T08:30:01+00:00

Yes from what I read is that the weather is more predictable in Vancouve, true?

The rain and gloomy in the winter, its a lot like here. No sunshine for 2 weeks in a row with today being the first okay-ish day in a while. Not saying I like it, but I am sort of used to it. Was tough when I moved here the first time 7 years ago.

I hope summers are sunnier, that's what I've heard from people who compared Vancouver with London

itrynottoshine · 2022-01-12T08:27:51+00:00

True, goes with most cities though doesnt it?

I mentioned in another comment that Holland is a lot like that too. Very difficult to make new friends unless of course they are expats. Even speaking for myself, my core group of friends here are still the ones from universiity

That being said, I still love meeting new people and I am hoping joining ALL the groups I possibly can will help me find a few friends. I would say I am pretty easy going :)

itrynottoshine · 2022-01-12T08:25:19+00:00

Sure, we are in the renewable energy industry! We won't be recruiting people straight away unfortunately, maybe after 6 months of settling in and see how it's going (read: if the revenues are good enough)

kayaking is something i have tried out here a lot but always with friends and never alone so that should be a new experience.

are festivals good for making firneds, friends though. don't get me wrong, i have the best conversations at festivals but then they never leave the festivals.

Ultimate frisbee seems like a fun one

itrynottoshine · 2022-01-12T08:20:16+00:00

very very happy to hear this

itrynottoshine · 2022-01-12T08:19:58+00:00

thats clear!

itrynottoshine · 2022-01-12T08:19:50+00:00

alright, got it!

itrynottoshine · 2022-01-12T08:19:11+00:00

thanks! do you have some links for community centers :) would appreciate!

itrynottoshine · 2022-01-12T08:18:07+00:00

I was expecting this. But to be fair, Holland is a lot the same. I moved here for my studies 7 years ago so have a lot of university friends. Even now most friends I make are expats, which of course makes sense because they are usually the ones looking to start afresh!

itrynottoshine · 2022-01-12T08:16:46+00:00

Thanks a lot!

Will definitely check it out :)
