The great thing about working for an international company - I've said it before - is how I get to know so many different cultures, even when just mostly staying here in Amsterdam. This week, we have colleagues from South Korea, the US, France and England visiting and it was the Koreans that brought the presents in the picture above. It's funny (and similarly actually quite sad) how all chocolates and sweets in many Asian stores come individually wrapped. The amount of packaging material in anything that comes from Asia is truly staggering (sorry for generalising) but it must be said that the chocolates and other sweets were quite delicious! Funny how lemons are called 'citron' here. Google translate glitch, I wonder...
