Introduction

My name is Gabriel Folklore. It is clearly NOT my real name! I just made it up thinking it would be better to pick something not related to who I am or what I do. That's the price one has to pay for being honest. Honesty is a difficult path after all and I would not like my job that I love so much to have an impact of who I am in my personal life. So, that fake identity!

This blog is to tell the truth and NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH about being being me. I am Indian, was born in a village in India, now I am an English teacher. I'm gay and out to my family AND in love with a wonderful Turkish-Belgian guy. 

I am posting this first post from the home of my partner. Who I am visiting just for two days, he is out buying grocery shopping and I am home. I will return home to Istanbul tomorrow and I am not aware of what the future of this relationship would be.

 Brussels is beautiful and so is the love we share...
