guess its about ime to update things here! again, i do apologise for not answering comments, i'm just, well, i'm ok just missing excitement.
but you know, since the last blog, i haven't really written the rest of my european adventures!
after latvia, i was in poland for just one week, only warsaw and wroclaw for this trip. but i plan to go back next year and see the rest with a friend i grew up with, who's parents are polish:))
wroclaw had a gorgeous old town, and i even met a polish gal who, cos i'm aussie, invited me out for dinner and drinks since i couldn't afford it!! she was so super cool, and i absolutely am in love with polish food!
after poland, it was off to austria to catch up with some friends there (i actually added this dude on myspace a few years back, and after 2 years of chatting we got to meet, and i think him and his gf are two of the most awesome people i have ever met!). but the most bizarre thing happened on the trip..when i was in katowice waiting for a connecting train to vienna, (and dear god, the trains in eastern europe are just shite!), i met a girl who had just returned from tampere, finland, and even knew the guyi stayed with there!! ha! such a small world! she was such a friendly person, and it sure did help the nine hour train journey go faster! she also gave me a list of northern metal bands to look up, her being a dj in a metal club, she was very helpful on the subject^^
so, vienna was great! i kinda lazed around a bit, and my friends made me dinner which was super sweet, since they'd already eaten. the next few days we just spent wandering aimlessly, eating ice cream and talking your generalcrazy talk:)) konst is really quite obsessed with my mods, and is always trying to analyse my reasoning, which really just makes me laugh- and him exasperated!
i left vienna very low on cash, and so decided to hitch hike,,, which was no walk in the park! i was to go to münchen, and it took me so long since people kept dropping me off at very small towns on the way, but i got there eventually!
münchen was lots of fun, and i got to see the city by bicycle, see nude sun bathers by the river, people surfing on the same river- and drink beer out of huuge ass beer mugs that were an effort just to lift up!
next on my travels was nürnberg, and i must say, this was one of the most prettiest german cities i've visited! the old town was surrounded by two walls, and between both walls was beautiful parkland, the air fragrant from the cherry blossoms.
from here, it was to mannheim! where i caught up with bodymod members carmetta and progi. these two are two cool cats, and i never realised how close carmetta was from when i was living in frankfurt!! it really was a great way to end my travels in europe though, and it was nice to chill by the river in mannheim in the sunshine and cook some nice food^^ the two are really nice company!
from here it was back to frankfurt, and i had a great evening spending it with the family i worked for, the mother even cooked me my favourite risotto, and i spent a great deal of the eveving out in the spring evening playing with the boys:))
then, it was back to oz!!
and well, the highlight was meeting bodymod member ayay, and eating great dumpling together^^ i totally owe her a beer, too, since i went skint on dinner and owe her some monies:P
and the last three weeks, well, that for another blog!!
hope all is well in the land of modders! (:P)
hopefully next photo update will be me with my new hair- since i bought some clippers the other day to shave some off hahah. it will probably fail:P
