Guess what... Good News!

Hi everyone!

I've been trying to sit down and write some news for a couple of days now, and I finally got a moment, when Niki is not busting my balls for sitting in front of a computer all the time.

So finally, the good news: We got a flat!

Seriously. No joke!

I am sitting here now, sipping on apple juice (yeah... seriously, I'll get some beer later), listening to sweet, soothing music (Entheogenic, if someone is interested) and sharing this jolly good news, yay!! :)

I must also stress the fact, that we are two lucky lunatics. Perhaps - enter deity of choice - is looking down on us, with more compassion and understanding to our wacky ways, than we thought... Anyway, check out the photos. The flat has two rooms, and it's got everything we need. The best part is that we pay very little for it, but I won't tell you how much, because someone might want to google out this post, and come and take it away from us. The location couldn't be better. We live in a part of Palermo that is called Hollywood, just 3 blocks from Plaza Serrano, where we can enjoy a rather satisfying offer of bars. It's not as quiet as it was in Olivos, but it isn't very noisy neither and there is lots of green around - trees and parks so we like it a lot. Telemedia is just across the street, so it's convenient for Niki. Oh, I forgot to say that we got this flat thanks to them..











Yesterday, we went out with a friend of mine, Dawson, a guy who works with me at the company, whose name I will mercifully ommit. We went to Plaza Serrano for a couple of beers and later continued at home, drinking some rakija that Christian and Peter brought for Niki from Hungary. We played some guitar and although the original plan was to go out again, we were not able to execute the plan, as I got "a bit" tipsy, as usual.. Christian and Peter didn't join us because they went to see River vs. Defensor Sporting (although it was 0-0, the previous game was to credit of River who scored 2 goal on away game in Montevideo, so they advance to 1/2 finals of Copa Sudamericana), but today Peter has birthday, so we'll probably go somewhere out.

In the meantime I am trying to figure out what is the cheapest way to go and see the Iguazu Falls. It's about 1300 km from Buenos Aires, so it's not going to be easy. My parents are (hopefully) coming in February and we would like to make this trip together. I mean it's really IMPRESSIVE, everyone I met tells me that this view is simply unforgettable. I think the best way would be to rent a car, because this way we would be relatively independent and we would also have a chance to see other interesting things in the area of Misiones, you can read more about it here. As a side note, if you know the flick called "The Mission" with Robert De Niro, it was set in that area.

I guess, that's it for today. We'll keep in touch!

Kisses and hugs from the gauchos.

So happy for U guys 2 find a place U can call home!
I think I am not the only one 2 say this ;]
2 say the truth we all knew that U will find something cool, as U always do.
@ BP everything is the same, at most.
I’m finally starting being "kosior", at lest I’m proud of my beginners skills of driver, after recently received driving license and my sweet little car (wish I could call it this way, cause its a C-max focus ;]) Anyway its cool.
Janusz is comin for a week to make some trainings for GSC, I hope to welcome him worm enough to remember Budapest as cool as we remembered Warsaw ;]
When he stroked me with the news that he’s coming he even said: "its more information for your liver than for U", all Janusz, what can I say…
Will definitely drink for Ur health, and make a salut for the adventurers ;]
So take care, and as I said, U should never ever give up! ;]
" If have a dream, U have to protect it..." I’m sorry not 2 remember the title of the film from which it was quoted... hopefully someone will know... Ill leave that as a hazi feladat ;]
Take care!
