Even Flow..

Yesterday, it was the first time I went out in Utrecht since smoking is prohibited in clubs, restaurants and bars. Things were different; some places have separate smoking areas, others are completely empty, because everybody stays outside to smoke. Next to that, going out smells differently. Normally, the smell of going out was a combination of smoke and beer smell. Now, the beer smell is still there, but the smoke is replaced by all sorts of body odours. Since smoke smells like smoke, normally you aren't surprised by other smells, but since body odours come in all sorts and sizes and are different for all people, yesterday evening was an interesting, but stinky experience for my nose. Sweat, bad breath, farts and sometimes very bad perfumes could now be easily distinguished. Sanne, with whom I was going out, also noticed and told me that she noticed that people smelled very bad. Although it's healthier to go out without people smoking, I really have to get used to stinky people.
