BARCELONA, BABY!…or barcelona, baby! :)

ENGLISH:

ok, so i guess it’s pretty obvious i had a really really nice time last week. sorry that i didn’t post anything for such a long time, but you know how they say “time flys, when you’re having fun” and there was really a big portion of it…

ok, as you may noticed from the titlle, i was in barcelona. 20 degrees dudes!!! i finally returned there (i promise this to myself 8 years ago!!! :)) i cannot write about all the felings and stuff, but i can give you some crumps, if you’re planning to go there any time soon: so, if you’re looking for something else than just classic clubbing, you might get lucky and find some afro-brasilian drumming performance in parc del triumpfo, like we accidently did and it was exactly what i wished for, before i went there. (i can’t belive my wishes just keep coming true all the time :))ain’t i a lucky b…:)…anyways, you can’t imagine what kind of sound this was… 20 drummers playing at the same time in combination with a dance performance…. no comment needed, i guess…

if you’re more sportive person, you can’t miss a football match. we cought barca-almeria! it wasn’t that big of a match, but the stadium was full and you can’t imagine (again:)) what an awesome feeling that is…:)

then of course you have to meet with some locals as well… we cruised some good bars (especially loved the venesuelan - the only one in bcn), had some good mojitos, beers, etc. and of course ended up dancing till dawn :)

next day, when your knees still don’t feel like holding you up, you take a relaxed private city tour by another local or go and celebrate somebody’s bday in the harbour party place… :)

and of course for a nice closure of the trip…relaxed salsa night (lessons included!;)) in a brasilian bar…but be carefull that you don’t end up walking there, like we did, still with those frickin broken knees (damn, that lying map - it looked soo close…:S) ok, it was hard reachable…but so much fun!!!

ok this is only some of the night happening. but of course there is also a lot of day stuff to see and do…of course i saw a lot of sites, but my favourite time was last day actually, when i went to one small city close to barca (sitges)…escaping away from the crowd and spent some quiet time on the beach, writing a song (julien, i’m sending it soon:)), going barefoot in the sea for the last time this year (i think…), watching the waves coming close…simply mmm… recharging the bateries…i don’t know why i like this so much, but everytime i’m close to the sea (and sun) it just gives me this special feeling…i feel…happy…at home!

AERO, SPAIN AND DAYS IN BETWEEN…se mal pa gremo spet na jug! wiiii!

ENGLISH:
ok. lets start with a last weekend:
i heared that slovenians already experienced some snow…well, we didn’t. actually we had quite a nice weather, so we decided to go to island called aero (european writing, cause this keyboard does not have all the dannish letters:)). it’s located under fyn and it takes about 75 minutes by ferry from svendborg…beautiful ride among some small islands…
when we got to this aero, we explored supposingly the nicest city on this island - aeroskobing. pretty nice indeed, but also prety empty (not a season!). later we visited another hojskole and borrow some bikes (since info and renting center were closed i came up with this brilliant idea, that this people there might be just friendly enough to give us a hand with this bikes - and they did!;) thx again guys!). it was a beautiful ride to the second nicest city there - mastral, although i have to say that whoever said that denmark is flat as a pancake, he obviously never took a ride here on this island! actually only halfof the team made it to the end (i was there!) and the other half gave up somehwhere on the way.:) but luckyly on the way back, we found a nicer track and another 13km didn’t seem far at all (hey, don’t laugh at the number - i don’t cycle at all, well except with my small pony in ljubljana center! - which doesn’t really qualify cycling:)). at the end it got pretty cold already(island!!!… wind!!!), but it all paid off again when we’re sitting in the warm ferry lounche by the huge windows and watching pretty amazing sunset.

otherwise this week we returned to our normal life…well almost…everybody is in great anticipation for this friday, when we’re making a study break and cruise down to….barcelona! wiiiii! we plan to visit some cool sites, but more importantly some cool clubs as well…and for footbal fans: supposingly we’re also goin to see one barca’s game… a good one i hope:)
 
…but that’s still almost a wek away and till then there’re still some things that needs to be done:

so, today we had our first band lesson:) it was…loud?! and quite chaotic… (sorry, i’m a honest person), what can i say… if we suck, we suck…:) but with a little bit of practice i think we can get somewhere! just wait couple of weeks:)
i’m playing drumbs, two different kinds actually: djembe and conga, cause they are quite similar, so…why not!:) and additionally i’m also trying something with bass guitare….:)

otherwise i returned to my other project: saving coral reefs… i’m still quite exciting and this week i actually plan to start writing stuff down…
