visitors. intensive

specjalnie dla kaślopka: update ostatnich dni :)

over the last 10 days, i've been performing an intensive hosting:) first woderful pedro, then absolutely great jose (both couchsurfers), now dorotka and marta, until thursday... then it will be 2 weeks straight of sharing my 13 sq. m with someone. i love it, really!

pedro (and the camera), jose (and his emails) and me
(on skype with taiwan - pamiętasz, kokos? :))

my metro stastion is NOT the ugliest station in paris. i love it

the wonderful city bikes

dorotka and maire du XXeme

un vide-grenier. that's my main shopping spot

i love all the plants that people have on their balconies

marta&dorotka&buttes de chaumont

what else?
universite de la terre
ponts pas des murs
entre les murs
tokyo!
i love hopper
hanging out with all the people, studying a bit (i love portugese and social psycho), almost breaking my clarinet (but luckily, bogdan's saved it) and getting to know paris a bit more

thank you, Yann Arthus-Bertrand

just beautiful. and helps me remember how amazing the world is

close to people

it's funny and wonderful how close you can feel to people even when you're away. and that you can feel closer to someone on another continent that to your next-door neighbor.

that's how i feel right now.

after having spent a wonderful weekend with ania (+ethical fashion show +tricky + batucada +cameroonian food), talked hours on skype with a bunch of my favorite poles, exchanged emails with those much more east, west and/or south and hanged out the whole day with pyzia i really feel like i'm surrounded by good and loving people. thanks...

still, it would be great to really connect with someone here. hey, great parisians, where are you??? i'm looking forward to meeting you finally :)

oh, and life's just so amazing in general... and i'm finally starting to appreciate paris x, especially after a portugese and a russian class. palestynian arabic (inalco) is not bad, non plus. and afrodance and clarinet are preety amazing too!!!oh, how i love to learn!!! and the job is so exciting...

and i got to go, i'm expecting guests for another 10 days... how is my tiny flat going to survive that...?

recycle your used plastic cup (after having drunk a HORRIBLY tasting half-a-cup of coffee) and hit the jackpot!!

!!!! (only the act of buing this book wasn't a very responsible consumer choice...)

which way's the future?

he he...

and the change has come :) i just love my life. more details soon. i still can't believe it...

and for now: paris in the fall

i just love this window

pont cardinet

cool.. isn't it? :)

my beloved parc de batignolles

my beloved parc de batignolles

magic from my window

starting next week!!!!!

cafetaleros. helping out

i need a change

a new blog color is a change. i need a bit more...

fortunatelly, i've just finished everything but my BA paper and I've just decided not to finish it now. what will be will be.

i'm also a bit fed up with the bureaucracy at paris x, but it's also behind me now.

what's left is the time to explore! just in time :) i was starting to feel a bit down.

next week is my first clarinet lesson :) i also got my navigo card, so i'm ready to explore!!!

enjoying

after a couple of days of trying to finish my african studies papers and organize the paris x studies, i have finally had a couple of days of meeting friends, hanging out and enjoying the amazing city.

thursday: hanging out with adrien and angelique (merci, angelique :)).

friday: a booooooring conference at unesco's hq and interesting exhibition about fairtrade. check out cafetaleros. merci, romain :)


saturday: zuza and marcin and "la nuit blanche" and visiting centre pompidou until 1 a.m.


sunday: trying to get some work done and inbetween falling in love with the quai branly museum... first sunday of the month for free...

znowu grasuję w sieci

me and my 13 sq. m

view from the window

of course

at night (it's not always that tidy)

printemps (spring) in paris. right. judging by david's outfit, it's summer

yes, you're right :) marysia is just packing a big toy pather in kitchen plastic foil...
that's how you end up being after having spent a year in paris

my uni. i don't like it that much anymore :/ the last two days's been rough

guess where's that :)

i've got internet at home!!!!!!!! :) i feel kind of bad to be so happy about it but you, who have it at home, don't even know how much time it saves you when you don't have to leave the house each time you need to send something urgent...

good sides: i'm going to more efficient in writing my papers, my hands won't freeze while i'm writing you emails, it's won't rain anymore on my computer, i'll drink less coffee (cause i won't have to go to coffeeshops to get wi-fi)

bad sides: i won't see the good looking bartenders at 'le bloc' that often, i will spend less time in my favorite park, i'll be tempted to waste my time surfing the net, i'll have no more excure not to finish my papers

life's good. university paris x is by far the worst organized university i have ever seen. my erasmus coordinator is the least polite person i have ever met. but the rest of the people are really great and sweet. i'm progressing in my papers for african studies so there IS a hope that one day (and that day should be 10th oct...) i'll finish them...

turning 23

that's how i've turned 23. timbuktu
