The last couple of weeks our expat life in The Small Town has really intensified. There has been some activity every evening, there has been beach-volleyball, horseback riding, kayaking, go-carting, bbq:s, cocktails-and-Sex-and-the-City-movie-night etc etc. ( I passed on that one. I do like the series and will see the film at some point, but it felt very wrong to see the film in The Small Town, it being sooo far from everything in the movie!) It is nice of course, but it is still a bit absurd. Especially as there are no other people out except us..
The Small Town tries to market itself as a summer town and in a way it is, thanks to the lake and the beaches etc. But on the other hand it has not really understood what it takes to be an attractive summer town. A couple of days ago a colleague and I wanted to go down to one of the places where we can hangout and wanted to have a bite and a beer. Just to find out that the kitchen is closed whole July!! “Welcome back in August!”
How can they just close the kitchen!! And this place is also a hotel!! What can they offer their hotel guest?! Micro heated pre-fab quiche and lasagne... Disgrace!!
