Mondays 02/03/2009

To prove that I do listen to mommie sometimes, here’s some more news for you!

Today is just another monday, but after a well-filled weekend!  On friday there was a goodbye party for Stefan, the first volunteer to leave our family.  So that was a bit sad…

Saturday we all went to a concert of Carlos (a Spanish volunteer from nearby Santarem) with an Irish friend of his in… an Irish pub!  They played nice music and afterwards we had a little party of our own on the street!  Our instruments were a guitar, my highheeled shoes and the clapping of our hands.  Very nice

Sunday is resting day, also for the volunteers.  We took it easy and in the evening we went to a Japanese restaurant near Saldanha.  Also very nice.

Today is monday, so another workingday.  In Tercena all is calm and time for me to go look for some food because I’m starving!

Back to reality 06/01/2009

2nd day at work and it still feels like a monday   After some nice holidays in Belgium and here, reality catches up again and here I am doing nothing at work

The holidays were awesome.  I spent one week at home, seeing all the family and most of the friends.   Then I went back to Portugal, where Paulinho awaited me at the airport.  Here the days were also full, going from one place to another!  We went to Porto, but arrived just too late to visit one of the wine cellars.  Oh well, there will be plenty more opportunities

The pictures I still have to upload, but I’m waiting for my computercable to do this, hopefully that thing won’t take much longer…

In the meanwhile it seems to be nice and chilly back home!  Damn I wish I was there   Here it’s also a bit colder (10 degrees)  but I am aware that that’s nothing compared to up north   So, I’m going to look for some work around here.  I’ll try to make some more interesting posts soon!
