EVS?
whenever i experience something big i remember this song from cher that said "do you believe in life after love" ehehe. well, the sad thing is: my EVS is on it's final lap. it went so fast i cannot believe it. but i will not speak as if it's finished already because i still have three great weeks ahead! so, as this blog is supposed to be a testimonial of the life of the EVS, i have decided to keep it until i find a job in portugal. although i enjoy writing here, i really hope i can soon stop. let us see :) we went to maribor for a 72h international meeting and, behold, it was in slovenia that i saw the first snow of the winter! oh so beautiful! and right now it is snowing as well in bratislava!
the cooks: yuliya and jarka the food: borsch (east-slavic soup) and proja (serbian corn bread with cheese). the main dish was my beloved mussaka! and cheesecake was the first success of the oven!
yesterday was a national holiday so i went finally to devin castle with jarka and yuliya! one can easily get there with bus 28 or 29, and it's only 20 minutes away from the centre of bratislava. it is closed from november on but yesterday was specially open, and we were almost the only ones there, it was a great morning! the whole morning was very misty and it gave a particular ambiance to the visit we visited the church and then we made alittle walk to dubravka great great, we should have more mornings like this one!
anthony was the last survivor of joana's hostel during the weekend. to celebrate this great accomplishment, he invited us for a delicious gnocchi! with potatoes, flour, salt and bryndza cheese, we made a strong and really good meal that i still remember now! i wonder where will i find bryndza in portugal. i think i'll need a secret exporter!
the day after the event was as well very fun. because most of the EVS came from different cities, they decided to stay a few more days to get to know bratislava a bit better. so we went to the castle where we met with everyone took a group photo! and then went to slavin, a memorial building for the soviet soldiers of wwII high up on bratislava. and while some waited for a train, we danced in the train station!
johfra and juraj knew i collect mugs, so they offered me the perfect one for my birthday!
you can write on it!! we took an analog camera for our holidays. it was a minox 35 ML lented by a friend of ours. fortunately, it was a bit dirty and it made this great effect on all pictures! no doubt that analog is much funnier luis for starosta the band of the bridge cutchi cutchi and these pics come from the supersampler i've had during summer and only now developped them (with 50% discount!) from the 72s competitions in the festivals from a sunny day in koliba from a serbian dinner from a trip to brno from a sightseeing day in bratislava from the blue church from a burning petrzalka
