I’ve been living nearly a year, now. When I left New York and Korea to come here, I didn’t really plan anything and even it was kind of last minute decision. The whole reason of coming here was to find out what is all about real French cuisine. I want to have a base of French cuisine. Yes, I want to create my own cuisine on top of concreted French cuisine knowledge.
When I look back my past days of living and working at Paris, even though I had many struggles and rough days, I truly believe it was the good choice that I made for my life. I become more confidence and creative of my job. I’ve never thought about developing my own creation to Parisians and people from all around world. A small and casual wine bistro “Le Verre Volé” was the first main stage out of Korea for me. It’s been my shows there. I’ve been growing inside and outside. I became eager to do my job. In other words, I might be aggressive sometimes at the kitchen yet, that is because I love my job so much and I want to do my job right and taste good.
End of next month I have to leave the restaurant due to visa. I don’t have any regrets of leaving but, the experience gave me strong desire of having my own stage to create my own cuisine. What is my next step?? I am going to travel around world to discover the all the cuisine that I want to know more and the cuisines of great chefs to absolve into my cuisine. It will take me 1 year to do and I probably need a lot of money to travel. I don’t think there is no problem to keep on my plan. Though, I wish I own a car because I can travel easy and carry my stuffs in the car. Although I don’t have much savings to have any luxuries, I believe I could do some works for cash, such as cooking for money or a bed. I also can take photos for any special occasions. Currently, I’ve been practice guitar so, I could be a street musician. This blog might help me to continue my plan. Anyway, I can do anything for money and learn cuisines without earning.
I’ve been sending emails to arrange to do learning experiences. My master plan is getting clear and clear. I will spend more time in South France to find out real French cuisine until End of May. Belgium will be next a month. There is a restaurant I want to be and I am getting an answer to be there. My summer will be at England, working at some different restaurants and attending at a music festival. I hope that I would get to a restaurant in Denmark which is considering as world number one restaurant. Otherwise, I will probably stop by other cities in Europe to meet my friends who can show me the local cuisine and experience local life there. Whether I get to Denmark or not, I will visit my friends in Europe and Asia.
I am still searching for the option of going to Asia without getting on air plane since I am not in rush to go anywhere I want to go. My first plan was to go Moscow to get on 7 days train trip to cross the Russia and then ferry to Japan and Korea. Another hand, I want to go Turkey, Israel, India, Thai and, Singapore as well so, I should get on the train to get threw all these countries. If there is anyone can give me any information about it, I would be appreciate for it.
I am going to keep writing about my journey and I hope everyone enjoy with my stories
