Sofia, a long way from home

Getting settled in my apartment for the next almost two months in Sofia, Bulgaria. I'm here through a State Department Embassy Science Fellows Exchange Program. But more about that later.

This evening I ventured out for the first time to go to the grocery store (it's just down the street, so I really didn't have to go far). Picked up a few staples - a mix of familiar products and some local things. The photo below shows the creature comforts I found. One of those items (with the grey lid) thank goodness was Original Amerikanische Erdnusscreme - now it's official, I can stay for a little while...
