 I’m sure we all have similar experiences where you meet with a group of strangers and in the beginning you’re thinking; who are these people and they really do not seem to be nice… Then after a couple of days, you realize that they are not as bad as you thought they were and then...

I love to meet new people and yes I am always amazed at the bonds we develope with people, sometimes complete strangers. Yhis outdoor cooing class is just classic! [Reply]

Frits is such a beautiful cat! I don’t think I would like to travel with a large group, because I like to be free to do what I want when I’m on holiday. However, I think I would enjoy cooking with people. I’m actually taking an art class right now (for the first time in my life). At first, I would come home really depressed, because I was intimidated by the group, and by the fact that we had to show our sketches to everyone, and have the class comment them. I am not the kind of person who is comfortable in those situations! But now, after only two weeks, we’re all laughing together, and it’s really fun. I think that with cooking (in which I’m a little more confident than sketching), I’d have an even greater time. Anyway, I’m glad you enjyed the group cooking experience! [Reply]

I am exactly like that Simone! Always whining about new people only to discover that they are actually quite nice! Frits looks really smug… [Reply]

I tend to make friends like that, too. Like minded people tend to do the same kinds of things, and then – not so coincidentally, enjoy one another’s company! Thought provoking… now – more about the cooking class, please!!! Great photos! [Reply]

Hi Simone! It’s been a long time since the last time I came to visit, but you never disappoint. Your posts are as entertaining, your pictures as beautiful and the food as delicious as always. I promise I’ll be visiting more often, now that I finally seem to be settling down… Have a great week! [Reply]

This sounds like so much fun! I’d love to do a travel/cooking combo kind of group trip. [Reply]

I think there’s always bonding (and fun) in group activities, especially cooking. Perhaps the initial discomfort has to do with the fact that everyone is a stranger and has the same hesitancy about making friends. [Reply]

A great way of meeting new people! That gazpacho looks delicious and I love that beautiful ginger kitty! Cheers, Rosa [Reply]

Simone, food blogging has shown me how people can become friends, very good friends, over a common activity. I totally understand where you are coming from! I also think that food and cooking are so passionate and so creative that only certain types of people really are involved in things like food blogging or cooking classes and that is what you discover after being with them for such a short time. I’d love to go away for a long cooking class like this! Frits is wonderful! [Reply]

 Yesterday we visited the market in Bourganeuf, which – thankfully – had a little more produce then the previous two markets. We had quite a large group so making decisions is always a little bit harder when there are 8 people with opinions… lol… But Jan-Willem was to be the chef of the day, so...

Simone, this is so much fun. You got to enjoy the sight into the local markets. Love that kind of adventure. I myself put market visit as no.1 list on every trip out of the city. And of course, enjoy your coverage about each day activity so much Sawadee from bangkok, [Reply]
