you shipping stuff over? A colleague recently got her african statue thingie smashed by customs since they thought it was a buddha (you can't bring religious items i think? not sure) so be careful if you're bringing any statues :)

There are ok grocery stores but I cannot find everything in any one of them so I visit different ones for different things - if I knew better, I wouldve packed some ingredients that i use the most (non-perishable, of course) which are not so easy to find here.

Um... do NOT bring any pork :)

I'll think some more and email ya
