*The below is from my diary on 3 August 2018 in Poland

---

It's been very hot summer

Earlier, I was walking towards Warsaw city centre

On the way, I noticed a girl with a bright summer dress, walking ahead of me

Her hair was what caught my eye. Carefully arranged, shiny, short hair

At first I thought she was heading to a bus stop, but she passed

She seemed lack of that strong will for the destination. Just randomly walking around

---

"Are you from here?"

was my first sentence to her

Then we started a chat

.....Joanna,
20 years old,
Half Polish & French,
Living in Paris
Currently visiting her Polish boyfriend in Warsaw

Will go back to France soon & stay there for a while, then will come back again to Warsaw next month.....

---

We walked together to the city centre

Without any clear asking from both sides, we went to a cafe called Relax

Chatting for an hour

.....Left the cafe, and just before goodbye-hug, I said

"Let's meet up when you come back from France next month"

She replied "Let's meet up BEFORE I go back to France. Tomorrow night?"

---

An hour passed since we said bye bye

Slightly unsure what I should expect from her

Also, somehow I'm not so excited
Not as excited as I was expecting before I talked to her

Probably because.....I just moved to Poland 3 days ago and feels like this kind of things are going to happen more in coming days & months
