Le Cordon Bleu藍帶開學典禮，retoucherie

來歐洲混了三個星期，總算等到Le Cordon Bleu藍帶開學典禮。有著上次上起士課的經驗，這次輕鬆搭地鐵到學校，約莫花了三十分鐘，我想以我住的地方的距離，這應該是極限了吧。

到學校的時候陸陸續續已經有人來報到，來自世界各地的同學，從臉孔來看感覺年齡層分佈很廣，我這個中年大叔混在裡面好像還不算太老，領了資料，先是接待員帶我們到冬園休息，見到兩個學校廚師助手都是高個子華人樣貌的女生，其中一個還是台灣人，其實會給我有東方模特兒的感覺，害我不禁懷疑她們是不是來巴黎想發展模特兒生涯，因為不順遂就改來藍帶學習，當學校助手賺錢省學費。好我承認這應該真的是我想太多。

Croatia，雨天與晴天

關於克羅埃西亞，去之前沒有什麼特別認識，只在一季TAR裡看到這個國家的賽程，高學歷黑人兄妹因為誤買了商務艙機票，重買已經沒位置，被迫搭較晚的班機而遭淘汰。那一季也是TAR第一次到台灣。

因為這個國家停留時間不算在申根國內，於是一直被我放在候選名單，查到有台幣七千元的來回票之後就訂了票，渡假首選的Dubrovnik正是TAR造訪的地方。因為這趟行程我還是這次到巴黎以來頭一回進戴高樂機場，克羅埃西亞航空標誌採用國旗裡的紅白格紋，簡單好看。

你埋葬記憶的土耳其

巴黎、北京、島嶼、然後是土耳其，總算把「旅行的意義」歌裡唱到的地方都去過了。而這裡發生了一些事，好的壞的，的確有些記憶會被我埋葬。

Happy Chinese New Year 2013

    The vacation of Chinese New Year is over. This year my grandmother have to receive regular hemodialysis for her renal failure, so she could not join the New Year's Eve Dinner with us. We chose a restaurant not far from our place. The food was good, and we were lucky to win a lucky draw and get a free doll for my lovely nephew. 

  On the first day of the Chinese New Year, I went to three different temples to worship. I prayed for a good fortune, hoping to win the lottery and a smooth stay in Europe this year.

I'm a qualified family physician now.

   After 3 years training at the Family and Community Medicine Department of my hospital, passing the family medicine specialty examination, I finally received the certificate last week and have officially become a qualified family physician.
