Food brings us together!

Food is our common ground, a universal experience.
-James Beard

Our social life here is similar to life back in the U.S. Most social gatherings are coordinated around food from around the globe! Here are a few photos from some small gatherings here in Tampere...Ali baked Brazilian bread, which just melted in your mouth.



Then, Preet hosted a French crepe party (even though she is Indian, her boyfriend is French and he wouldn't date her until she learned to make crepes...just kidding!), with all of the fixin's: Grand Marnier, nutella, bananas, jam, fruit, whip creme. Preet even lit a crepe on fire, it was delicious!

Flambéed Crêpes...yummy!
