Eventually I decided to reflect my autumn's journeys on the paper, I.e. In here. Francly speaking i'm going home by the undeground and writing it in my pocket computer. Thank you dad that is really a very practical device. It's hard to start the story coz a long time has passed so the emotions are not that fresh. Anyway it's easy to make a long introduction rather then to start.

So what happened:work in moscow, journey to st.p for my parents' wedding anniversary, flight to kazan being ill for chairing the conference, journey to st.p for the weekend with lesha, going to izhevsk fo faciliating at rec, st.p again.

Let's do one by one.

Working in moscow. That's funny that i'm a person not only without a city (st.p and moscow) now but also a person for 2 flats even in moscow: coz i'm living in mc flat and I lesha's flat :). Therefore there are lots of funny moments happening in both environments. For instance we watched a movie with bora and victor at night. It was motorcyclist's DiarieS. It was in Spanish with english subtitles. So the sound was quite low. Victor fell asleep. And then suddenly he stated to speak romanian very loudly and scared me really ;)

I'm cooking also for lesha. He calls lots of my cuisine results-mexican cuisine. May be, may be. But he likes it tRuly.

Or I can also remember a clea ing party in mc flat. Nastya, bora, marina and me. I remember that day I had a meeting with the UN, then I was invited by IBLF to go to the State Parliament to listen to the meeting of coordination committee of the state project financial literacy. That was really exhausting, 3 hours of uneffective discussion for an aiesecer. So I was like a boiled fish in terms of energy. But nasty, marina and bora were so axtive in cleaning the flat in combination with drinking gin&tonic. I joined. It was funny to clean the floor in the kitchen 6 timescoz it was really dirty. Hahahahaha funny moments from October.

Above all Araz (vp x of AI) came for a visit. There was and exchange meeting with vps from different cities. At the same time thanks to katya and nastya we organized a party for Lesha Nikityk (joined our mc team). It was a nice cozy party with the topic of Harry Potter. I reember me sitting in the corridor on the flor we lesha N, katya, vika from engec-guap and bora drinking beer, telling stupid stories and jokes mixed with the serious thoughts and future plans discussions.

It was also "join 21" joke period.

Niceeeeeeeee. Bora and me were recruiting people to our gang.

Niceeeeeeee.

I also remember me and Araz meeting with alumni: first Dum, then M.Tureckiy. That was quiet different .

Then as I mentioned I went to my parents wedding anniversary to st.petersburg. We call it family day. Nice dinner. It was good that I bought in advance a tie to my father, later on I bought underwear to my mother. So I was equipped in terms of presents for them.

I also met my dear Spagetto! Diego! =))))))))) if you are reading this you to know that i miss you soooooo much dude!

After that visit to st.p I came back to moscow extremely ill. It was monday. And the whole tuesday I was lieing in bed. Lesha even took day off to take care of me :) dear.

And Yulechka+Stas! Thank you for that evening with icecream =)
Miss you.



The problem was that on wednesday's morning I had a flight to kazan. I decided that I had to go anyway.

The fight was at 7.2o am. So we had to the taxi approximately at 4.40. The funny thing was that the taxi was supposed to be in front of the house in 15 min and the service-girl told it was not a problem. But going out of the house I received the call from the driver who asked not to worrry (why should I? I thought). He told that he has a tradition that no one of his clients can be late. When he eventually came he told he was on the other part of moscow when he got that order and the was going with the speed 170 km/hour. He was even stoped by polica and he gave them a bribe (welcome to russia).

And when we were going to the airport we were also like 150-160 km/h. Adventure again.

I came to kazan, still ill. One of my ears was blocked during the flight, so I was a little bit like disabled in kazan. I actually understood what means to be responsible for my own health.

Kazan was full of challenges. Change of lcp, then her illness, few delegates, absence of vptm. But the conference was very nice. Delegates became active very soon, the party was funny (playing consume).

The city is developed and rich. Petrol is petrol. I was living in the center of the city at the begining of Petersburg Street . that really resembles the spirit of St.P somehow =)
As for famous Kazan Kremlin it is really amazing. There is a muslim moscue in front of christian church
there. you can make a photo and catch them both! that's wonderful!

I brought a big bag with tatarish food from Kazan. Chack-chak and pies i dont remeber the name of.






after Kazan i stayed in moscow for 2 or 3 days and we went to s.p for a weekend! Lesha convinced me to go =) we came early in the morning and wedecided to have a breakfast in Coffe House. we were drinking coffe near the window, looking on Nevsky avenu and keepinf silence. From time to time i just saying: We are in st.p, right? ahhhhhh, right! cool, yeap? yeaaaaaah! I think everything seem to be quite small after Moscow, righ? Right!

hahahahahhahahahahahha

then moscow again of course! i came at 5 am and at 5 pm i was in the train to Izhevsk with Bora nad Vincent!

Actually REC was simply GREAT and wonderful! that as one of my best conferences ever. one of the best. Poeple were really united, active and intersted. We managed to have mutual atmosphere: mutual fun, mutual serious talks, sensetive moments, learning. Faci team did a good job, we rocked! People were really exited to learn. Above all REC help me to discover myself better, to think soooooooooo much. even till now i'm going crazy because of all these thoughts i'm so happy i got this period.

And thank you Natasha, me dear and the best of the best of the best for ...Just for the fact you are




live well
laugh often
love much (c)
