It took me 4 years of living here to start enjoying it!
Now I really like it, but have given up on a few basic life comforts that you get used to when you come from continental europe (I'm french-greek-italian), such as:
good fruits and vegs
good looking girls
girls who don't vomit
girls who don't scream drunkenly in mini-skirts in february
normal opening hours for restaurants' kitchens (up to 1am is the norm in europe)
normal opening hours for cafes and bars (2am minimum)
non-alcoholic seduction between boys and girls
good food in any basic restaurant (good food exists here but is harder to find)
