Food and sex: common grounds…

Think about food… all the experiences, feeling and emotions related to it...

It is known fact that human can survive about a month without eating anything at all. However, already on the second day of fasting he/she will have a strong appetite.

Let think of the reasons for starvation. Some people starve for the sake of so-called "spiritual development".. Others are forced to go hungry all the time due to their bad financial situation. Sometimes it happens that people have an appetite and money, but they just can not eat - this is commonly known disease

Also, there are two types of food: homemade (literally made at home) and everything else. Homemade, of course, is the favourite one, but sometimes it becomes annoying. We want to try something new, even taking into account that the new is likely to be worse than the taste of our so familiar and delicious homemade dish.

Now a bit about restaurants… There are different types of restaurants. Ones offer delicious food, excellent service and are very expensive. Others… if you eat there once you can spend a week in a hospital with poisoning and forswear that was the last time you dined there.

Our eating habits…. All people eat differently. Some like to take their time, others prefer to eat very quickly. Some need at least an hour for their repast. Others manage to satisfy their appetite in two minutes and when those two types are sharing a meal it can cause resentment and hurt “slow eaters”...

21st century

Nowadays we have so many different devices to make our dining experience more comfortable and enjoyable… more then 20 types of forks and spoons, chopsticks, china and etc. We have got the variety of medicines and vitamins which increase appetite and improve digestion. And, yes, whatever century we live in, an invariable attribute of hygiene are still white paper napkins...!

Clever one Anna! ;)
There is one more to add up: Although some people know what food is healthy for their wellbeing and soul, they go for junk food, or bitter taste which give them pain in long term!

Whats common with sex?
Cannot agree with you that one. For me sex is much more complicated issue. You sound like this old joke "10 reasons why beer better then women" ...you know... "Your beer will wait you in the car while you buy more beer" and "Beer has a fixed price". IMHO its oversimplification. But its good to know that you are like homemade food but like to go to restaraunts:P

Viva Brazil

The Christmas and New Year Eve were truly remarkable for me this year as I spent it in fantastic and mesmerising Brazil. My friend Caio was my guide there and as a native he could show me the best of Brazil: not only the touristic parts but also the whole beauty of small towns and suburbs, everyday life, traditions and culture. Considering that not many people speak English there I am so grateful to Caio for making this trip so amazing and stress free for me. Multifaceted and colourful Brazil is known for its nature, culture and rich history. In Brazil you can experience everything from architectural monuments of the colonial era, lively carnivals to  simply   a delicate aroma of coffee floating in the air. Among of all beautiful places Rio De Janeiro surely holds is pr imary position for me. Noisy, picturesque and ever bubbling Rio attracts by its excellent sandy beaches, luxurious hotels, unique sights and state-of-the-art architecture. To visit the city of all B...

The hero MUST die at the end…

R emember the famous Tolstoy’s quote “all happy families are the same”? The similar could also apply to the most of the movies with the happy endings. I don’t know whether it’s just me being weird, but in my opinion, Hollywood happy endings ruin some movies. You watch a film and all you remember afterwards is just the cliché at the end– main characters are happily in love, bad guys in prison, everything ideal…just as it’s meant to be. Isn’t it boring?! Many would disagree with me saying that there are enough negative things happening in our lives and films with happy endings make us forget about daily problems, deepen our believe in love and good triumphs over evil. So what is better – to be a spectator of a narrative history we love it closes where the bad are punished and that ultimately the conflict is resolved or... to watch a film which make you think about things or bring to you the most unexpected? What would stay in your memory and what the difference between a good fi...

Жизнь по- английски

Итак, моя первая статья на русском, впервые за последние 5 лет. Хммм, слова путаются в голове... Пытаюсь сформулировать мысль, но всё как-то машинально происходит на английском. Странно… вдруг понимаю, что не говорю в совершенстве ни на одном языке. Как говорят - "ни к селу ни к городу!" Итак, первая статейка… О чем она? Конечно же о самом важном, о личном опыте, о самой жизни - моей жизни в Британии. Наверное самой большой трудностью с которой я сталкнулась, приехав в Лондон, был "культурный шок", динамичность всего проиcшодящего вокруг, ну и, конечно же, какое-то странное чувство одиночества и ненужности. Но ко всему постепенно привыкаешь, приспосабливаешься. Такое доказательство теории Дарвина на собственной шкуре! Ну обо всём по порядку... Как я уже сказала, к такому культурному шоку я была не готова... И дело не только в бешеном ритме мегаполиса, куче достоприомечательностей мирового уровня, английского завтрака по утрам и " fish and chi...
