I realised that I was living alone when...

When there's no food in the fridge, there is no food in the fridge and no matter how many times I open and close that fridge door a beautiful cheesecake will not appear on the shelf that has only a half empty container of dip.

Unless someone walks with the pace of urgency at all times they deserve a stern 'look'

The never ending circle of wanting a pet but realising how cruel it would be to have it live in the confines of your teeny tiny living space

Food shopping becomes a sport in its own right, carrying the wight, the handles cutting into your fingers in the cold, promising yourself I will order online next time

I only need to iron something if it looks it needs an iron, and then I'll probably choose to wear something else

If I must iron, the carpet is a perfectly adequate as an ironing board
 
Sometimes, you do just find yourself having to walk home alone at night and praying that you won't be preyed upon

My clothes fresh from the wash don't smell like meadows or flower fields, but instead feel crunchy, like cardboard

There's more and more and many more moments of realisation I had that I was living alone, by myself in a city - not all bad!
Then I look at pictures like this one and feel so gushy that I get to live in this city

Evening walks and Handmade burgers

I went for an afternoon of walking around the city, but the afternoons get dark so quick here it feels like evening any time after 3pm.

I thought the city looked so pretty at night, there were water fountains with glowing blue lights that were so amazing, my camera couldn't catch a nice piture and all it shows is a blue blur- so you'll have to imagine...

and pretty statues infront of museum-looking houses

maybe the most magical part was dinner...

We went to the Handmade Burger Co who basically sell burgers (obviously) in every kind of variety imaginable, and they taste so good, and to be completely honest they're only a few £ more than a KFC or Mc Donalds meal and the quality is better, they fill you up for longer too (It has been 6 hours since I ate this burger and I still feel completely stuffed)

I had the:

Jimmy's beef cheese and bacon, which had mature cheddar, bacon, caramelised onion relish, mayo and salad.

It was like a mini monster, I never usually go for the meals with different types of meats and big bulky burgers, usually I have the Beef Milano which has pesto in it, mozzarella, mayo and rocket and then I ask for a flat mushroom to be put in too.

Next time I am dying to try their Lamb and mint burger, I love lamb, I love mint what's not to love!

If you are a vegetarian you are probably squirming at the thought of this menu, but they have gret veggie options too, like the falafel burger..mm..I love falafels!
