week 1 day 4, 14 Jun 2009. (raining)
It as early noon by the time we woke up and embrace the new day.
Since it’s a day to get the guys sober, Natsha invited me over to her apartment. Her apartment is situated on the opposite bank of the river, and to get there we took the metro-station and the public bus. She lives with her younger sister who aspires to be an architect. But before we went over, we bought lunch over for her. At the supermarket I had a fun time entertaining myself with Russian dumplings. (show you some pictures later. i left my cable in the apartment)

*(left) typical phynet (or pynetni) stuffed with minced beef.
(right) meat (beef) and rice - meat balls.
*typical koisk that you can find on the streets. (they range from selling hotdogs to fruits to magazines to stockings to... well anything)
Back at her place, we just chat and… more cultural exchange. Her sister showed me her drawings – pro sia!!! In the evening, we went back home and then, more cultural exchange into the late night. Not an eventful day.
*lunch we had. pancakes stuffed with ham and cheese / meat and rice.
*marmalade (fruit candies) we had after lunch.
*me and vera (Nastya's sister)
By the way, if you are confused by the many Shashas, and Kathya(s) (Kate) or Tanyas or Natshas/Nastya… don’t worry, because it’s the same case for me!
some random photos... ...
