I was born in London but i have lived in asia since the age of 3 (so 10 years)and I currently live in Brunei, where monkeys happen to be the huge rubbish pests as regularly as racoons.We had to put a lock on our rubbish bin and they were still able to break it open and eat some cardboard:p
I study in JIS, one of two major schools in Brunei,and I spend my time cooking and desperately looking for simple recipes.I am so glad I stumbled upon`zaar, it's great.When Im not on the computer or in the kitchen, I am reading books.We have 8 bookcases in my house, and we need a new one.I'm often reading cookbooks and I imagine making the food.It's never ever as easy as i picture it!
