The other day I mentioned what an important date February 17th seems to be in my life. So I reposted my return trip home blog. Today, I want to revisit a year ago when I got my job offer.! And yes, I’m still there π
I was never a huge fan of Walmart when I lived in the states. I have always been a bigger groupie of Target which I first discovered while living in L.A. in my early twenties. Or like a really, really, long time ago π Target got a hold of my loyalty first and kept me just happy enough that the hold never loosened.
However, when I moved to Mexico, there were no Targets. But, there were Walmarts. In fact, Playa del Carmen had three Walmarts.!! Go figure. So whenever I felt homesick, I went to Walmart. It was eerily familiar to the Walmarts in the states minus the signs in Spanish. And it comforted me in a way that going to the local businesses in playa did not. Oftentimes, I would meet my friend C., the beauty contest winner, and we would eat hot dogs at Walmart.!β¦

Yep. Walmart was definitely part of the scene in the neighborhoods of U.S. Totally feel you. π Happy weekend, Rose!

Lucky the coffee’s here is good. Though I still miss the comfy environment of Starbuck here! ππ
Ah yes, I’m sure you have delicious coffee everyday.!! But agreed, there’s something about a Starbucks. I’m still surprised they haven’t opened up a Starbucks in Croatia for sure, but even in Bosnia-Hercegovina, Mostar would be a good coffee scene. Soon….fingers crossed. Then you can get the best of all coffee worlds π
ππ ! Hard to have everything one like in one place. π
True.! But we can always hope π
Agree! Totally! ππ
