What do you do to adjust to these changes?
First time was horrible. I tried to adjust but it was really hard. What make it worse was I didn't know how to cook at that time. Later on I start to search for Asian market. Or ask someone to send some for me - which was seriously expensive. From time to time I reduce food I usually eat and change the habit into more European - I would say. By the time, you will be more European than what you're expected
Learning to cook is so important. But I completely understand. I have been so active on youtube lately, trying to find recipes for stuff that I never used in Nepal. Celery for instance would never have entered my kitchen. But now I have found a perfect balance. I try to cook Nepali food at least twice a week. But you are right, I am becoming accustomed to European food more than I would like to accept.
I hope you enjoy your time in Europe. Netherland is one of beautiful country, been there couple of time.. every part of the country is beautiful in its own way :)
I am falling in love with the Netherlands. Specially because I live in the southern side of the country, people are really nice and warm.
