Okay dudes, where were we? Right. We arrived in Hamburg on Saturday morning, pretty much totally exhausted. The first thing I decided on was to get one of those hop on-hop off bus tickets. I thought it would be like my own personal taxi. That sort of worked out, except the English translation of the […]

Yo. So it always happens that I forget to post for a few days, then I want to get a thousand posts done all at once, and then I quickly lose patience, and then quality declines, profits slump, and layoffs are inevitable. So it goes. Thursday I went on a walking tour, which was free […]

Have you noticed that I’m a little bit behind in my updating? Sorry. It’s been a super fun week though, which has led to me not being so enthusiastic about sitting computerwise and typing. So, where were me? Ah yes. Berlin. I got there on Tuesday afternoon. When I arrived, I realized I had no […]

YO. So Monday we went to Vilnius. Unfortunately, I haven’t had time since then to write about the trip, so I just wanted to get the photos out before too long. I’ve already got a ton from Berlin, so… yeah. Anyhow, Vilnius was great. When we first got there, we had to deliver flour to […]

So I came to Lithania on Saturday, spent the afternoon in Riga, and then Saturday night we went back to my friend’s house outside of Siaulia, which is the fourth largest city in Lithania. So if you live in a town outside of the fourth largest city in Lithania, you can imagine that there aren’t […]

Guess what I did last night? That’s right! I went walking! Yeah! So the Tartu Film Festival is this week, and they set up a giant, inflatable screen in the town square and showed some movies. The theme is love, which of course explains the Kirsten Dunst period piece science-drama extravaganza that they showed. I […]

OMG, you guys! Yesterday was epic. I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves.  

Man!  Sorry it’s been awhile since I rapped at ya.. Anyone remember that columnist from the Onion?  That dude was cool. So class is good.  Three hours in the morning, lunch break, then more class, or lectures, or tours or whatnot. I’ve watched two Estonian movies this week.  Vilmne Reliikvia, which is a weird Soviet […]

  I’m totally back in Tartu. For real.  I may have mentioned this in the past, but I’ve got a rather strong preference for Tartu over Tallin (though neither of them are Haapsalu..? ) so I’m pretty happy to be back.  Unfortunately, my hostel is tiny, there’s no wifi in the room, the window shade is absolutely […]

So I’m leaving Tallin today to spend two weeks in Tartu, where I’ll hopefully finally master the language! Friday was our last day of classes.  We took a test, which I did okay on, but it confirmed that I still have a pretty sketchy idea about how four of the cases work.  I’ve got a […]
