This week it feels like the pace of time has really accelerated! I will soon have a Russian conversation partner, we had a mixer that was rather like speed dating and I met two really great Russian girls who I hope will be my conversation partners, and I am also hoping to start interning at the Hermitage museum next week. Just have to fill out a form and get myself organized. Classes are still going very well, plenty to read this weekend in between hopefully going to Peterhof tomorrow and checking out a couple of dance clubs. I’m feeling a little under the weather so I might have to back off on the intense planning but we’ll see how it goes!
In other news, I’m planning my travel week for mid-November and I think I have decided to go to Berlin. I’d be there November 8th – 15th, bonus points to whoever can figure out why that would be a particularly great time to be in Berlin!) A couple of people are thinking of coming with me, but I would be just as ok going by myself, just two easy flights and then I’m sure I’d meet people in the hostels and would love to have the freedom to explore. I’m still taking suggestions on where I should go, though I’d like to buy my plane tickets and reserve my hostels next Monday or Tuesday. So let me know if you have any brilliant ideas! We’re also hoping to go to Helsinki for a weekend and in about a month we are going to Estonia as a group. So plenty of traveling, and I have all spring to figure out where else I definitely want to go!
Thanks again for reading, and comment away ☺ All the best from the land of the increasingly-cold mornings!

ReplyDeleteWhile I think that at some point you should follow the Cadet's advice, no way should you miss the 20th anniversary of the decree that led to the tearing down of the Berlin Wall. Oh what a celebration that should be. Cannot wait for your blog posts on that.
ReplyDeleteLove all of your posts. Please keep writing. More detail required. This will become a book at the end of the experience. Trust me on that one.
