Back in Europe

It has been a month since our last post. I do not really know what happened that we were not posting but here we go again. We intend to continue with our blog. I enjoy it and Rita supports me by giving some encouragement to go on :)))

Since the last post actually we have travelled quite extensively. We saw condors near Arequipa in Peru taking a private tour to the second deepest canyon in the world, we figured out that our plane tickets back to Europe are on different days so we cannot fly back together, we went to Hungary and figured out that Rita has too many things that fit to the van we had so we had to do two back and forth trips, we spent lots of time in Poland preparing our accommodation for the next year, went to Berlin and we are now in Amsterdam for a week. I would not call it a break from travelling. Thanks God in fact because the thought of having a "organised and repetitive" routine in life gives me chills. Either I am getting old or something changed in me.

We had a great year travelling around in 2008 though one year is clearly not enough to be able to seriously say that - yes, I have seen a lot. One would need a couple of years of constant travelling to be able to say that one has seen at least a part of the world. It was just an appetizer.

We have gave it a thought how to continue with the blog and will decide for one of the following options:

- interesting things happening to us in Poland (for now the winning thing is the fact that 20km from the boarder of Warsaw it is impossible to have Internet - none of the GSM providers has coverage of our village; nobody else either - in total we asked over 50 companies) My other favourite is the electricity provider which needs two years to change the tariffs so that I do not pay a 60% premium over the normal price - still 8 months left. I already know that there will be lots to write. For now I think that the absurdity of the way the country is organised makes Poland a piece of art (somebody said that in the 80'ties during the communism but I think this is still exactly the case)

- starting your own company (since we came out with complicated ideas the implementation might also be quite challenging)

- Or we continue with the travelling theme since it seems we will be on the road anyway during the year and we will definitely move to a different country soon

We have some new photos on Flickr still from Peru so you might want to have a look at them... Hasta luego - we take our bicycles and go on chilling in Amsterdam !!
