G'day

Looks like some months are flying by like bees..
Sorry, for popping in here after a while, but I was a little bit busy with some video stuff. I have a Canon XH A1s camcorder now, so it will take some time to explore it properly and find out all the important things for a quality shooting, you know!!!
All this time I have been good, all the money I earn goes for my video accesories, well it is an investement anyway. Health is all right, girlfriend - excellent, family - good and job - so so. Everything like by normal people ;)
I will see you later,

Floating Cities

Are these the answer to the threat of rising sea levels? One architect believes floating cities could offer a safe haven for people who have lost their homes to flooding.

Rather than building up our city's defences with dams, architect Vincent Callebaut has put forward an alternative future for the victims of climate change.

The floating ecopolis, inspired by Amazonian lilypads, are designed to be completely self-sufficient in both power and water, through solar power, wind turbines and rainfall collection.

a street in Milano

Friedrichshaffen was the beginning of our journey. We went down to Switzerland, where we spent 6/7 days. Then down to Milano.. In Milan it was so so, a bit boring, to be honest, but at least we can say the magic words: we have been there.

Monte San Salvatore

Logano in July

We are waiting for funiculare that comes down from San Salvatore hill to pick us up.
The hotness is irresistible, especially, if previous night was long. Not long to wait, just 20 minutes.
Should I get some water or is it better to stay in the shade...?!
Look there is a birdie!!!
-Ohh, where is the ice cream man ;/
Why everyone is looking at us???
The jazz fest is in the city tonight, lovely, just let's find some supermarket to buy some drinks for the night!!!! ;)

Yes, I am Latvian but writing in English..

..just because all of my friends understand English, but not all of them understand Latvian :/// Actually I wish the situation would be upside down, but it is not...

Yellou!!!

Hows it goin?!!!
We are flying to LV in 3 days!!! Yeeeaaahh, super cool. I haven't met my family for ages and neither my friends. Looking at weather forecast looks like it's gonna be sunny and 24 degrees warm. For me it's enough. I feel a little bit tired from my job to not to say more so holidays are gonna be just on time.
After visiting Lv we are staying 1 night in London and then heading to Seville, I guess I don't need to check the weather forecast for that place. I just know that we are gonna be by the pool, drinking Pedro Jimenez and eating Jamonsito, love it!!!
Definately I'm taking my camera with me, so it's gonna be a possibility to see some of my pics. I'll see you around!!!! Ciao.

mmmhhmm

3 days in Aarhus and a quick look in Spot festival

Hello,
Last 3 days just flew by, been in a place where U can buy alchochol all night long and hv a botellon in the streets legally... where is it??? Denmark, yes.. So actually is no wonder that time passed so quickly. Thursday was the opening day for Spot festival in Aarhus, where we saw some nice jazz, rock and reggae bands, after that we decided to hv a lil rest in our hotel, but because of that we missed Yann Tiersen live performance, that's ok.. next time.
Missing Yann Tiersen concert was not 2 bad, cause next band was Minipli from Luxembourg. Our minds were blown away not only from Staroprmen beers and Swedish ciders, but from this minimalist experimental electronica guys as well. They hv been changig the instruments in almost each second song and the crowd was totally under their wave. And then came this tune and my mind went so high....
Even though the words are in spanish and I had my girlfriend by my side, she couldn't understand a word (well few), but that didn't matter any more..
As the last performers were band called zZz. A dutch duo with drums and organ only.. After few more beers we were dancing till I remembered myself next morning in the hotel in my bed. We had to wake up to check out from hotel, and in huge hangover mood tryin to wake up and slowly say: bye, Aarhus! Was wery nice visiting U!!!
Peace,
S.

Par sausiem māliem!

Čau! Te Salvis Āre. Ceru, ka ar jums viss ir kārtībā un lietas iet kā pa sviestu.. Man pašam iet ne gluži kā pa sviestu. Es varētu teikt, ka man iet kā pa māliem. Kad tie ir slapji, šķiet, ka iet kā pa sviestu, bet kad - sausi... auch!!! Ja turpinām apskatīt sauso mālu tēmu, tad jāsaka, ka tikai pirms mēneša uzzināju, ka man ir jānokārto vēl pieci priekšmeti kā parādi (te nu gan laikam esmu aizmirsis piebilst, ka esmu reklāmas menedžmenta beidzamā kursa students RSEBAA)! Esmu dimbā jeb māli sausi! Protams, pats jau vien esmu pie tā vainīgs. Kā nekā esmu bijis divos akadēmiskajos gados, un pa šiem diviem gadiem kursam, ar kuru pašlaik kopā studēju, šie priekšmeti jau ir bijuši iepriekš. Tā nu manas nolaidības un pārāk mazās ieinteresētības dēļ atrodos šajā situācijā. Par nekādu augstskolas beigšanu šogad laikam jau nevar būt ne runas, jo ir kurss/priekšmets, kuru šogad nokārtot nevaru. Tad nu ir jāatstāj uz vēl vienu gadu. Atceros, ka mana vidusskolas vācu valodas skolotāja stāstīīja, ka vācijā augstskolu absolventu vidējais vecums bija ap 30 gadiem. Šķiet, ka es ar šāda veida statistiku Latviju vismaz nedaudz pietuvinu Rietumeiropas līmenim, kas patiešām ir pozitīvs rādītājs, ja par kanonu ņemam Rietumeiropas īpašības un īpatnības. Tā nu arī man ir savas īpatnības, un šajā emuārā jūs jau pāris pamanījāt. Paldies par uzmanību un līdzi jušanu! Līdz nākamajai reizei, ciao!!!!!!!!
