Hello all the good people !
The ones who were coming back to check upon this blog, should’ve noticed by now, that I haven’t been updating it for such a long while. To be honest with you, I am not continuing to do this series of blogs and I have some good reasons for that. Or at least I think I do. lol. First of all, the idea of making this blog was part of the personal project...

So after friday spent in the kitchen, finally we approached the weekend. It was lazy one. I spent all day in the bed and then in the room playing with my mac and doing nothing. Sunday, today was more fun, we went by the sea. I had a little bit of training and Marcus with Angelika was brave enough to jump in the water for the second :D ..
Then we were a bit cold and had to wait for the bus, but...

Pim pom pam,
Been a while know, but realised that this is not working for me the right way. Not everyday I find the moment to write about how it is going or put a picture. So from now on whenever I have time I will write more and this way I believe, that stories going to be more interesting :) …
So rest of the week of the last post went really quick, since we had a lot of activities....

Yo !
Another productive day in here, freaking enjoying it more and more. Studying french, reading news, working on the video. Everything seems to have meaning little by little. Finally, found what was missing - a bit more time on my one while doing meaning stuff :) Not a long time and I will crack on the music. I really want to.
DREAMS DO COME TRUE.

Started the week kind of productive, by cleaning the third floor with Hang and later in the evening cleaning the really messed up table (for studies) and putting mattresses on the floor. Mattresses were of course for training. And oh boy, I did train. Backflips, done a lot of them and felt improved. However, in the volleyball later on I was barely able to jump. Oh well :D
but still. 8 points...

It is so easy to put those numbers together. One day, two days, three days. day number 62 and so on. Not as easy is to do something meaningful during these days. This time I am not talking about the manual work. Work in the church. Hm ok.. In the house, could be better. In the garden, don’t mind. But the price of the free time? Thats a bit different. Self realisation, self development....

Salut,
Mondays are not the best days of the week. Thats a fact. Yet, the one yesterday was quite alright. Me and Julian stayed at home to work in garden and after day of work saw the fruits of our hard work - almost finished wall. Was really nice. In the evening me and my team had a volleyball match and after the long fight, we won !
First time ! Well, it was second game, but still...

Sometimes I have to take breaks. Short or long. This time break was 4 days long. But I needed it. Do I feel rested ? I don’t know, but feel somehow better in a way. It must be because of the very chill out weekend we had. Last working day of the week, on Thursday, we came back home early and started to chill straight away. Our plan was to go to London, however we didn’t manage to...

Yo yo yo. Interesting week so far going on. Monday we were working in Moussac just for half of the day, then continued home and carried on working at house. All Tuesday was sacrificed for working in the garden and later on indoors. We had to come up with the ideas how to decorate the walls in the hall way. So the big idea was music and culture. We will try to connect these aspects together and...

Hehe, last day of the week, everyone felt really merry and we decided to make ginger cookies ! (My favourites) People turn on their imagination and did the best they can. To add more, we had a great time all together !
Christmas is somewhere there … :D

Hey folks ! Saturday wasn’t the best day, to be honest. Woke up just before midday, had a breakfast and realised that I missed the bus to Nimes. Haha.. So next bus was just after two hours. I decided to wait, but during that time rain started and I just fallen a sleep. Then in the evening me and Marcus called Angelika, since she was gone for a walk for more that 6 hours and we started...

Friday. Everything was about normal and we were going to the work camp, when suddenly Patric turn around and said that we are not working today. I thought it was a joke, but apparently he heard on the radio that our working area is flooded. We stayed at home and just worked there. Nothing special really, and as you can imagine the rain is still with us. However in the evening we went for a walk...

Soo guys. It is raining out here. Days are getting shorter and shorter. The Wednesday and Thursday was completely given away to recovery from the travelling, lack of food and sleep. It went really well. I done completely nothing.
However, Fay was telling us about the seminar, which is going to take place in one month’s time. We have to prepare a presentation of 5 minutes long. So I came up...

Hello world, good morning.
I got one big and funny story to tell. It is about the weekend hitchhiking trip, which supposed to be just for two days. Oh well, it happened to last twice as much. When you think, that doesn’t seem to be such a long time, but we weren’t prepared for that. That wasn’t supposed to happen, but, man, it was so good.
It began Saturday morning, when Fay left us on the...

This day was most chilled ever. Woke up about 8:30 (which is late), had breakfast and was in mood to get my things sorted. Haha I wanted to do that for a log time, but yesterday was a day when I started to do that :) ! So checked all the insurances and other formal stuff and cracked on the french language after a long time of not studying it. Hehe really proud of myself. It seems that I found...

First time in the working history, I (together with everyone) came back from work one hour early. However, we had a meeting which lasted till 18:30 and after that I was exhausted morally and physically. So some more gaming awaited.
everyday we are shuffling .. :)

Good morning/day/evening,
Monday was as usual :) - bfast, work, home, sleep. Just in beetween home and sleep was much of gaming .. When weather is like this, people just tend to go crazy and don’t do much of the serious things I suppose…
insanity brought to you by weather ;D

So after hard Saturday, we decided to spend the Sunday a bit more productive… Not much of the doing, but at least we went out to walk somewhere in the fields not far away from Beauvoisin. Amazing valley which we found with the cliffs and all kinds of plants and trees.
Weather is getting worse and worse - wind and no more sun, but rain. However, rain is no big problem when you have some...

Hangover.

So Friday (i am being late, but for some particular reasons - you cannot be mad at me :) ), me n Sem stayed at home and cooked - everything would be great except the fact that guys from working camp returned for the lunch (12:30 (supposed to come back at 5)). This was really annoying, since it is third time me and Sem is cooking in the history and it is third time they are coming back from work...
On... 32
Thursday working camp - emm, quick. Evening ? Running with the Sem and then just chilling in the living room for rest of the night. Cold weather doing it’s thing. People are staying more and more together and consuming bigger amounts of tea. Evenings now are spent playing games and talking - lovely … :)
Our creature in progress.
Almost done !
and - perfect :) ..

Wednesday - day when we learn french, or sleep one hour longer. Nothing special happened today apart from Patrick bringing new beds and turning off the water for about half of the day :) …
Oh yeah, me and Sem done the shopping and bought the pumpkins as Angelika required, so in the early afternoon we were all getting dirty by making them look scary ( i took the pictures but they will come...

So literally it’s a month since I am here. Wow, wasn’t expecting it to go soo fast. Probably because everything is new for me in here had a lot of influence on time going so fast. And then the seminar. Just great time in general. Shame on my french language - I improved, but not enough to start speaking ;/ hehe i still have time and don’t want to waste it !
as for today,...

Haya !
First working day after week of rest. Was hoping it to be depressing, but it was opposite. Time went so fast and I saved a lot of energy, don’t even know how or where from (maybe you know where from?). However after the work me and Sam went running around our petit ville and found really cool forest and couple good spots to practise climbing.
Later I went to volleyball with...

and on the seventh day we chill.

So getting back from seminar was a bit depressing, but finding the parcel from my mother, made things more merry :D Finally I have a chain to lock my scooter, so I am free to go wherever and leave scooter there as well !
Because of that yesterday me and Julian spent day in Nimes, just basic chill. I fall in love with the city and the fall as well.
Street of Sommeries.

Soo, probably I’ve said to you or maybe not, that I didn’t want to go to the seminar, because I thought it might be boring and not interesting at all.
And how wrong was I. However the beginning, as always, was a little bit awkward, but I already met the volunteers, who were to participate in seminar at the bus station of Sommeries. Quick ‘hi’ and then introduction to...

Hey guys, I am leaving for a Seminar in other city and not taking my mac with me, but grabbing a camera :) ! So hopefully on friday, I will update how it went including all the pictures and everything. Be safe !

So Sunday it was :D Sundays are the laziest days ever - waking up after 11, having a breakfast and then chilling. Doing completely nothing :D However, later on in the evening with help of Sem I managed to fill my fuel tank with petrol and went exploring the Beauvoisin surrounding areas. A lot of beautiful landscapes and gorgeous sunset !
In the evening - movie with beloved volunteers and now...

One word - Montpellier. The second most beautiful city I’ve seen in france so far (not counting Paris). The trip was really interesting, we saw so much in one day. Most incredible thing for me and I think for other was seeing french man’s (about 35+ years old) getting through the traffic on their rollerblades, skateboards, longboards and we actually saw one man with his little kid on...

Today, me n Sem stayed at home to help guys to finish the floor. By saying guys I mean Patrick, who is always working. So the beginning was a bit slow, but then we got into the rhythm and made it really fast.
The really annoying thing is, that it was my third time when I stay home and people from work camp comes back too early, because the work for the day was done. So annoying :D
Anyways,...

Cooking day ! Some of us were in the kitchen, some went to Moussac and final group went to the garden to work on the compost and some general stuff in general … Very chilled day as you can imagine, spoken all day in russian language. It was tricky to remember it, but then I done pretty well, I think…
This happened because we have two new volunteers, one from France and another...

Hola !
Being late as usual after the vball :) .. Anyway day was pretty cool, beginning with the french lesson, which was put in very fun way and finishing with the vball training and meeting a lot of cool people in there. Apparently they can speak a little english ;D ! Wohoo, getting more socialised with french people in Nimes - every little step towards new french friends and maybe...

Hard working day after the training :D but thats probably what u get. in the evening i went to petrol station, trying to fill my tank with petrol, but i didn’t work, since in france they take just credit cards. hate it. what about foreigners, who travel ? how r they supposed to get fuel ?
a bit of nonsense, but still I left to Nimes after that - explored the night city in its...

It’s just another day in paradise :)
Loving my life in here and enjoying everything around ( i should stop writing around with two R , so annoying). Today was wonderful, because of the sun and the meditation, which I am starting to practise. Everyday I can do that a bit longer - check me out ! And in the evening vb train. I know i shouldn’t but it sooo goood to be back on the...

So it is, exactly two weeks since I am here in Beauvoisin - and it’s pretty damn good. I really like everything whats going around here - place, food, weather and people. Most important - the people.

peace <3

Fourteenth day and tomorrow (on Sunday) it’s going to be exactly two weeks since I am here. Today was rather funny day. From very early morning we hadn’t have electricity, and it lasted till about 3 o clock. Later we managed to fix it and go by the sea.
It was my first time in the life, visiting the Mediterranean sea and I really enjoyed it. Beautiful sunset, salty and warm sea...

Apart from that, me and Marcus were on the kitchen team, messed up a lot of things, but made quite nice food ! Weather is still summer-ish, so are the moods !
And the last one !
