boah ey
I am soooooo busy these weeks. My work gets more and more demanding as closer the even comes(and that is November, so I am already frightend how will be next month)
But let me tell you a little about what happend the last three weeks. My brother was here and at the same time Will's brohter was here as well. Was a really nice time. One day we four plus Helena (another Norwegian trainee) went to Karlstejn and visited a beautiful castle (they seem to have hundreds of those here). And directly after we continued to Plzen, where the great Pilsner was discovered. So we visited the brewery, tasted some beer and then continued the tasting outside. Even a little longer and more and more... Was pretty nice :-)
When my brother left I had to leave as well. Had another Red Cross meeting in Germany. And luckly it was in Rostock, so I visited some old friends of mine. And it was, even more lucky Christian, it was Hanse Sail weekend. A huge festival for sailors and tourist,... and Christian :-))) Was awesome, great just perfect!
Then a day in Lübeck, visiting my parents and a good old friend. And after that I worked again a while in Hanover. But now I am back in Prague and work like hell. But since it is Friday I will leave now, get a haircut and then dive into the weekend...
More to tell soon!

I CAN SLEEP !!!
Ice age came back to Prahe, yiiiiieeeeeppppiiiiiii! Temperatures are far beyond zero(at least it feels like) and I love it.
But let me tell about my last weekend. 14 friends and trainees headed to the fairytale town Cesky Krumlov to spend a relaxed and funny weekend there. Unfortunately we weren't the only ones... So the bus was already fully booked and we had to take the train. This firthermore let us arrive at about midnight. Not really a good time to check in I would have said. But arriving in Cesky Krumlov at exactly this time meant for us, we had to cross the wonderfull lit up castle area, the Vltava(Moldau) and head into a mid age built town. It was IMPRESSING!!! After a little more discovering, walking around and enjoying the differences to Praha (prices are lower, not so many tourist even though it are still a lot and believe it or not, people in the shops, restaurants, bars and whereever else are FRIENDLY - and yes, it is still in Czechia), we headed to a float trip down the river. Being driven upstream about 25 kilometers we had a lot of fun in our three rafts (and the bars on the side of the river) Finally we reached our station at about 10 pm again which meant having the most frequented river in the world (I read that somewhere but it is only canoe, rafts and kajaks though) only and alone for us. Was so nice passing the castle and the cozy atmosphere of Cesky Krumlov from this point of view. Well and afterwards a long warm shower and trying to find some vibrant night life. Well, Sunday consisted only of enjoying the castle garden, relaxing and picking cherries on the way to the train station. I should have stayed there even longer cause the train we took was FULL of people. About 500 were easily standing and waiting in the coaches until some one would get out...
On Monday we had another sad farewell dinner for Marry. Sad especially because she developed to become a very close friend of mine. But that just prolongs my list of places I will have to go to (China, Paris, London, Spain, Greece, New Zealand, Bulgaria, Ukraine, Russia, Estonia, Iceland again and now and new NORWAY)
And today weekend begins again and another party is on stake. Some friends moved into a new place, so its their house-warming, one of them's birthday party, welcome party for Lise, who arrived just 10 days ago, and sad again, Kristoffer's farewell party. He will leave back to Norway as well.
So far my plans. But I will for sure also enjoy that there will be a cold room,my bed and Christian in deeeeeep sleep.
See you guys (11th-13th August in Rostock)
