Estonia

Too long I havent written not even a word in here. Its not that i have been lazy but actually i have been quite busy. Last economic crisis was quite disaster in Estonia too. But Im not gonna talk about people who are millions euros in depth or the unemployment rate.
So what has been keeping me busy? First of all when there is so many people looking for work its impossible to copeat with them specially when i have been traveling past 3 years not sitting behing computer. so i had to forget that and take my own inicative. I started to repair laptops, firstly only few but later bought and sold lots of them. Its a very time consuming but what else to do all those gray days in estonia. At least i didnt burn moneywise and actually managed to collect few coins.

Eurotrip

Afther 3 months in Belgium i got call from friend whos van was in Holland. Fellow Estonians borrowed it and went to Amsterdam but when brakes give up and they didnt bother to bring it back.
So i went over and managed to repair it in few days. As opportunity came i also decided to drive it back to Estonia and see my family. I took the route specially by smallest roads and stopping in nice villages making pictures of outstanding architecture.
Germany with their infamous red brick houses and tidy towns was interesting. Took my time and did some sightseeing in national parks and camped outside every night.
The change to Poland was obvious, bad roads and ugly soviet buildings. But inspite of that the boulevards and landscape were nice with some remarkable cities.
Lithuania was also beautiful, good roads and very nice scenery with lots of churches and castles.
Latvia was getting more remote but spent some time looking around and also found awesome palace and few old castles.
In Estonia went to see my grandparents house to refresh my old memories. And was hiding in my uncle's house until birthday to surprise my parents. But they already know me and my mum told to dad the day before that she has a feeling that we will meet soon.

Anyway, safely home!

Belgium

It is only 2/3 of the size of Estonia but its little bit more hilly and the highest point is nearly 700m. Only 66km beach line in Belgium is fully urbanized and not an real eye catcher imho. Over 10 million people speak half-half French and Dutch. They dont like to mix too much so who knows how this country was shaped. And when guys are kissing each other cheeks then they not gays but just greeting.

In the other hand Brussels is called the capital of Europe where all main citys are 1000km reach. Among other important institutions its also the headquarters of the European Commission, North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe (SHAPE).

Although the influence from the last economic crisis has been minor i haven't managed to get proper job in here. Looking work as English speaker in this country is painful, at least out of Brussels. But also I haven't had privilege to use legal job agencies and i haven't made any great efforts to learn official languages too. So lot of room for improvements. Lets see how it goes.

For while its possible to follow my travels in Google Earth. Now i have finished drawing all my trips in past two years and little bit more. And soon i will add to it all my pictures around the world ;)
