Kung - Fu Blues

Somewhere, in the Basement of a Building in "DOWNTOWN" Zurich, Switzerland, as they like to call the city itself, here.
Living amongst the Pipes, and somewhat "Industrial" Vibrations....

There lives a "Hidden Surprise".
We are invited to sit on a Dusty, Red Sofa, by the Front Door of a Place, which can sometimes help, Kick, and Punch, The often, Difficult, and Heavy Weight, out of, what is most frequently referred to as : THE EXPAT, OR RELOCATION BLUES.


KUNG FU SCHOOL, or KUNG FU SCHULE, a method, or mad-ness to try to MASTER...


....what I would refer to as : A Serious Roller Coaster of Confusion, Disorientation, Mixed Emotions, and MAJOR TRANSITION, which changes Direction, and Angle, Constantly, as...you, me, him, her, them, US....
Work at Settling into living in our new Environment.
Some things coming easily, quickly, whilst others continue to challenge and create....
All of which is "Apparently" "100 % Normal" to go through, when RELOCATING....

And so, not unlike, This ORCARA, Animation Technology, Doll...
who goes from being, HAPPY, and then to, SAD.
"Bobbing" Up and Down.
As this is, an EXPAT BLOG, this, here, Blogger, Dear Reader, is Living, and Travelling, and Exploring - RELOCATION SWITZERLAND - in often this very same "Identity".....?!


Here is a little more about the ORIENTAL COMPANY ORCARA :

What "Creatures of Habit", we are....?
"Travellers"....ADJUSTING TO THE DIFFERENT  :)  :(



"Seeking" to get, Under our Belts, or A Certain Level of Belt, as is the practise, in most MARTIAL ARTS, the "Qualifications", to Get By in our New Environments.

Well this particular SWISS KUNG FU SCHOOL has a Really, Positively, Helpful, and Wise... : "Creed to Live By", up on the Wall.
And, there is a Great One, for the Ole` Expat Blues...
wherever you came from, or are going to :

" Don`t undermine your worth,
by comparing yourself with others.
It is because we are different,
that each of us,
is Special. "



So whenever you, he, she, them, us, I get OVERWHELMED, it is time to :  Kick-in Kung-Fu Blues !
And, Smile, at The COURAGE it takes to Completely move Country, and "Roll-With-It" !



Until Next Time.  Thanks for Reading.
Yours, CFC x
