CouchSurfing

Hey everyone
I thought about writing this post for a quite long time. If u read my blog u could notice that at the beginning i talked about website called couchsurfing.com. So now after my trip i want to share my experience of it. I must say that it is very good experience =) I had three hosts: two in Reykjavik and one in Helsinki. All of them were men but all of them were very very nice to me (they even gave me a key of their flats). Maybe i was lucky but i always had what to talk about with my hosts that's why i had quite a nice time at their places. You know before my trip i was quite afraid of staying somewhere with the help of this website but now i'm sure that it is one of the safest way to stay somewhere abroad and one of the most interesting) For example my first host taught me how to pronounce Eyjafjallajokull =)
If u have opportunity to use this service use it without any doubt.

Results

As i have day off today i decided to write hre about results of this trip and it influence on me.
Here are things that i wanted to do there and what i really did:

• improve english - i did it and decided to to learn it more and more
• remember basics of french - done partly
• learn some basics of islandic - partly done =)
• learn as mush as i can about Iceland - done for sure
• visit as much as i can in Reykjavik - i wish i was there more time
• meet new friends from Europe - done, and i'm hapy for implementation of this paragragh
• become more independent - yeap
• have fun - absolutely done

I can say that it was very delivering trip. And i made a lot of important decisions because of it. I quited my job, decided to take some french classes and work on my english. I decided to follow my fate and cme back to Iceland . Maybe for you all of this seems to be not so important but for me it is one of the most important decisions in my life. Well i hope that i'll cope with it and will follow my fate)

Helsinki

Ok, I'm at ho,me for two days already but only today i repaired my internet. Now i want to write about the end of my great trip: two days in Helsinki, ferry and St. Peterburg. 

Well, after two happy days in Reykjavik, when we were saying goodbye to each other, and very sad departing from this city i came to Helsinki. Some years before i visited this city but i didn't remember a lot about it, that's why i decided to spend there two days. You know i wasn't disappointed about my decision. It is quite small but very interesting city. Two centuries ago all Finland was a part of Russia, that's why Helsinki remanded me of St. Peterburg. 
At the first day my host (very nice but shy man) showed me very beautiful island where we were walking for a several hours. At the second day i visited Suomelina island (one of the the oldest marine fortresses). It was very windy and quite cold this day day but i liked this place. At 7 p.m. I had my ferry to St. Peterburg, that's why i came to the port at 5 and was staying in a queue for more then hour. I must say that ferry was much more better than i expected. Everything was ok there =)

The next day at morning i came to the north capital of Russia. I must say that i don't like this city, and i didn't want to go there but i had to. So i had to spend there around 14 hours. It seems that this city wasn't glad to see me too, because the all day long it was rain. 

I don't know what else i can tell you about it, because now i try to get used to thought that i'm not at Iceland any more.

P.S. In the next post I'll write about results of this trip and it's influence =)

White house

I´m at Reykjavik almost for two days and it were good days. Yesterday it was the last evening with my group because today majority of them left Iceland. Even Dylan had to leave today but he came back from airport cause he was "overbooked" =) And this two days i spent a lot of time in the White house. (White house is the center of volonteur life here) Few minutes ago i moved all my stuff here again cause it´ll be a party tonight. Well now here from my group are only me, Dylan and Noa. I´m repeating my words but I really  don´t want to leave this place.
I think tht it is the last message from iceland, so see u in other countries.

BTW  it is still summer in Iceland =)
