Weekend in the nature





 Okay so now it’s getting clear that I’m not able to hit my goal of publishing my Sunday until Monday 11am. But I am trying my best here so please do excuse me.

So let’s start shall I? Yesterday we went hiking — it’s sorta a starting tradition for us. We were looking for a place which is close to Warsaw, but not as close asKampinos National Park where we and the whole Polish nation spent their last week Sunday. Somehow it is a bit difficult to find a good place to hike and I think the reason is because there are so many places you could go. Back at home it’s much easier, I believe it’s because we leave in the basin of a mountain/hill — depends on your standers haha — and if you wanna go hiking that’s the place you go the end. But here you travel 20mins to get outta the city and then you have to find a forest which is nice and which has parking lot as well. Parking is a huge concern for me because I don’t want to risk getting my car towed away or get it damaged by some angry farmers/rangers. So I downloaded OsmAndMaps where I found a promising green national landscape park with a parking lot so I decided that’s the way to go.

It took an hour to get to the place and boy it worth it. There were huge trees nice little gravel roads that were actually a road between two villages! Near one of the villages I found some bricks that been thrown out in the woods by some pricks and those bricks had letters on them! (Quick background story: I’m collecting bricks that has letters pressed on them. It’s a pretty awesome hobby I think) The only problem was the car was 4km away! So we had to carry the 3 nicest to the car in our hands! Oh my days it was a long trip! One of those suckers weight somewhere around 3-5kg and they were all wet that must have added some extra weight to them… And the best part is the green line trail what has lead to an electric fence and behind that were 10+ cows that were watching us closely. So we had to go cross country thru bushes creek and what have you. We even saw tow random deers on the way! 

This trip was epic and I am super happy I had to find new bricks to my collection!

Here are some photos for you

The actual first day at the University of Warsaw

  Soo, I know I already wrote a blog with this title, but that day (the day before yesterday?) I only had an online class which does not qualify as a normal in-person class! It simply does not. My first class was an online class, at 4pm – which is always fun – after it was my second class that was at the university! What a relief to have a class where I can see other people, and the lecturer doesn’t have terrible audio! What was not that good about it is it was freaking hard! I wasn’t expecting a Polish language class to be easy but wow! It is the next level of randomly placed letters in a word. And the fact that the class starts at 6.30pm does not help us. It seems like usually we are allowed to miss two classes, which is less – by one – than we can in Pécs, but here at the language course we have two classes per week and also two opportunities to miss class which honesty sucks… I do want to learn a Slavic language to be able to communicate in the Balkan, or catch some word whe...

Let's pretend this is day one(?)

  Today we just took the time to really concentrate on ourselves. In the morning we slept late, then I did my little yoga with Bohobeautiful, after that we started cooking lunch and dinner yada-yada-yada. We did participate in an online webinar about the library in Warsaw. To be completely honest I am not big of a fan of libraries. Not like I wouldn’t like to read, but somehow every time I went to the library back at home, I could tell based on people’s look that they knew I was studying sports and therefore I did not belong to a library. Of course, Sara was paying attention she studies at the faculty of Humanities, “her type’s” natural habitat is the library. While we were listening to the presentation, I had the time to think. And I realized a rather strange thing. Yesterday while we were talking with Ola, we were Americans ! I mean me and Sara… Okay, let me explain. So, every time I hear some English-speaking dude walking down the street talking on the phone or with someone...

Start of Our Evacuation

  So, yesterday was Sari’s last exam, which means the studying part of our Erasmus has came to an end, unfortunately not only the studying part is over, the whole Erasmus program is about to end! We even started packing yesterday… Sari’s exam was at noon, which is possibly the worst time to write a test, because you can’t even eat before the test which means your brain doesn’t necessarily have enough sugar to work. We were hungry and had no motivation to cook, and we were planning to go to IKEA anyways, so we decided to beat the traffic instead and have some good old IKEA vegetarian hotdogs. It was totally worth, we payed 14 zlotyi for a two meals. That simply doesn’t happen anywhere else. Then we walked around in IKEA God and Sari only knows what we were looking for, but we only found something I wanted for a long time. A doormat with ‘Dzien dobry’ sign on it.  mint isn’t it? When we got out of the store I hoped we were out of the woods, but then it turned out we still have t...
