Well this was a nice get to know you chat. I’m 3 hrs ahead and it’s 11:49 here and I get up at 6am. We can continue tomorrow if you’d like.

Mm I don’t like those. They’re to artificial tasting.

Val Zaza @zyla32.bsky.social · 9h

Yes!!!! Oh my God I love Greek food. Moussaka is one of my favs. One of the things I loved about living in Europe was all the fresh produce with no sprays or additives. You went to market every other day and everything was fresh. When I came back home, it took me almost a year to readjust.

Val Zaza @zyla32.bsky.social · 9h

Definitely not. That’s absolutely scary.

Santorini is the most beautiful place in Greece. The water is turquoise. It’s breathtaking.

I watch YouTube as well. I also follow a lot of Substacks.

Val Zaza @zyla32.bsky.social · 9h

Yep you’re right.

Spain is so beautiful and the people are very nice. Just talking about it brings back so many memories. You know I went to a a bull fight in Madrid. I must admit I spent most of my time with my eyes shut.

I know he has dementia. All the signs are there, and I am well aware of that as my mother had dementia and I looked after her. He does look like he had a mini stroke. You could be right.

No that’s the United Kingdom.

I don’t watch mainstream media anymore. It’s absolutely biased. I rely on independent media sources. Trump cut all funding to PBS. That man is beyond cruel, childlike and immature.

Driving in Italy was beyond trippy.

Val Zaza @zyla32.bsky.social · 9h

Never learned very much German as I did not like the language. I knew enough to get by and function when I was out in stores and restaurants and such. Took French and speak a little. Spanish is a beautiful language and Spain is a breathtakingly beautiful country. I loved Italy, France, and Greece.

All the time. Germans are the best drivers in the world in my opinion and I am a well travelled woman.

Val Zaza @zyla32.bsky.social · 10h

Certainly more astute, and aware of what is going on. At times it’s consuming, but I feel that it is necessary to remain informed. Especially since what is happening affects this country as well. The fact that we have family in the United States it is imperative that we stay informed.

That’s interesting. I’ve never heard that before. My father was a deacon at our church.

Val Zaza @zyla32.bsky.social · 10h

Yes that she does.

Val Zaza @zyla32.bsky.social · 10h

My God we are somewhat alike. 😂

Val Zaza @zyla32.bsky.social · 10h

Probably not you’re just a bit of a clean freak and that’s all right I am too.

Val Zaza @zyla32.bsky.social · 10h

Well cleanliness is everything to me. I’m a candle person as well. I like nice scents in my home. Right now I’m burning an autumn Apple candle and it smells beautiful. Very fall.

Val Zaza @zyla32.bsky.social · 10h

Oh Mayham that is very factual. That’s how it begins with animal cruelty.

Val Zaza @zyla32.bsky.social · 10h

I remember. I worked there and must say I very much enjoyed my time living in Europe. Made many friends there.

Val Zaza @zyla32.bsky.social · 10h

That is true.

Val Zaza @zyla32.bsky.social · 10h

Oh and your good friend follows me and reposted many of my posts. Thank you.
