Hola Tios, tias, Antonios y Antonias!

It's a pity...si...peterako...si...this is our blog! you and me! hahahahah let's see if we start encouraging people around to use it! JOder!

Well well well, here ..... I have finally settled down in Barcelona. After some job-search in Andorra, I have decided to come to Barcelona. The weather here is mild and nice in comparision to Andorra. hahaha.

I am working as a guide in the Museum of the HIstory of Catalunya, in a very nice building by the sea in the centre of Barcelona. Apart from that, I am also guiding people around Gaudi's buildings, etc. I am enjoying a lot and ... I am learning a lot as I forgot everthing about catalunya! I am refreshing my mind and I am getting very attached to my roots.

I will be here for at least one year and during the summer i will probably go to France again!

i love you all !

Ahoj again.
Although i know its probably just me and Alicia who are checking this site, but i still enjoy it more than group emails. First of all, in my last post i havent mentioned my fairy-tale trip to Greece. I have met Stathis, Marco, Anna, Giulia and Theo and,as expected, it was a perfect time with all of them.
Secondly, i want to let you know that next tuesday im leaving to Leiden, where im going to find some job of my life, or at least something close to that. On the begining i will stay in the place very well known to all of you, with the proud name of Oegstgeest, Geversstraat 59A. Aris and Letizia were in Slovakia for a short visit and we discused all the practical stuff, so i got my basics of jobsearch in Netherlands. im looking forward, but who knows how will it end. i will update my address and phone to the Database soon after i get one. On the end i post few pics half-randomly from my documents folder. take care and all the best.

Salam aleikum you my loves spreaded all over,
continuing in my tradition Im writing again from the airport, now in Cairo. waiting for my flight and enjoying wireless connection you r the first ones who i remember in such lovely but instable place as airport. you are my people of airports and the ones, who i always think about when im on the airport, when i see destinations as Amsterdam, Athens, Barcelona, Moscow, Milan, Ankara, Johanesburg. I know that sooner or later i will take a plane again to see some of you.
Im leaving Egypt now and im going to start some kind of new life. I quitted my things in Cairo and now im looking for something new, that will hopefully fullfil me and i will be able to stuck with that for longer. After a few weeks at home i plan to leave either to Leiden, Brussels or London and try to find something good there. it is a first time for me to look for a job seriously and im quite curious what this challenge will bring to me. i really feel i need to settle somewhere at least for a year or two, do some work and switch off all my worries about what im gonna do next month. all that i had already discussed with some of you, so u perhaps have some idea of what i mean. Although my future location is absolutely unknown, im inviting any of u for a visit. it has been a very long time, that i discovered how i love when a good friend comes to see me and to enjoy my daily life with him/her.
Here in cairo i had perfect friends also, and im getting convinced more and more that i really have a luck in meeting right people. i had a very nice time here; learned some news about myself again and about the life as such, right on time when i started thinking that i know already enough. we should never think that way however tempting it is.
i had a nice party lonight with many good-bye shots with my friends, so this has also influenced my melancholy a bit, but the substance is pure and genuine. i miss u and will always want to see u...yalla, take care, my laptop battery is falling asleep. kisses

Hiya visitors,
i'm at Budapest airport and happily found some wireless conection, so I'm just letting you know that after a few nice weeks in Slovakia im going back to Cairo. My address there would be different than previous one, but phone number should remain the same. I will write more from the spot. I expect to stay till the end of september. After that i will see. Im also planning very seriously a trip to Greece to some parts of my greek family ;-) most probably in late july or early august.
Alicia's visit was perfect and i enjoyed it a lot, so i hope the rest of you get inspired as wel.
cheers and see u later,

THE SUPER-WUAU TRIP

Sunday, May 13, 2007

Hallooooo from warm Moooscow!

I see I see...Alicia is planning a little summer gathering with Peterako:) very good to know, although sad because I am not so free to move after this july..Hopefully, I ll be working full time with my government job..I am sad actually not to be able to see any of you but I know that after december I will not have this job, so decided to sacrifice..who knows possibly we will have some winter gathering again!! and dont exclude Moscow please!!! I have one international hostel that is full of international people and comparatively cheap for Moscow! At the moment I am also trying to find a separate appartment ( might be a little away from Moscow centre) but if I do - you are all welcome to stay there:)

million kisses to all leidencrewers, even those that I dont have chance to talk to! I remember you all and I miss you a lot - trust me on that!

im here again,



lets try to make some updates on my whereabouts and whatabouts, since i havent talked to many of you for months already.



im still in egypt, but im going home on 28th May.i dont know yet for how long and what will i do in summer, but i expect to find out during this month. cairo it is getting hotter, but i got some good practice on my trip to Aswan in southern egypt. it was 51 degrees there which is my career high yet. in Aswan i met my friend and relaxed for 2 days by floating on the small Nile boat. i still havent cut my hair, but it seems to be just a matter of time.




Last week was also pretty unusual. Some weeks ago one guy stopped me on the street and asked if i want to be in a movie as an extern. I was not in the mood at all, but a friend who was with me insisted that i should take it and go for interview. i respect girls opinions, so i went. on the interview they told me they're about to start shooting the new big egyptian movie staring Omar Sharif (in case u dont know him, ask your mama) and that they would like to have me there. ok, i said, i wont leave Omar in trouble. so the result is, that all the last week i was kind of movie star... to be exact i was one of the 7 sailors, who were on the ship, where all the story is taking place. Movie should be issued in January, so you might be able to see me for a few seconds, maybe even in your cinema. Film is called The Passenger (Al Musafir) and it is a stupid simple kitchy romantic lovestory...only my presence makes it a bit watchable. But the good bunch of people gathered there and soon became friends, so it was a lot of fun on the end. im posting also a photo of the only slovak sailor, have fun. It was also paid very pleasantly, so i didnt mind at all.

In case i will be free in summer, i deffinitely want to go to Greece, to see how my friends live there and enjoy the food and sea. So, greek crewers, pls, let me now about your plans and maybe we can manage to combine them somehow. also, there is preliminary plan to go for music festival in slovakia 4-5july (www.hodokvas.sk there is english version also, but slovak one is more updated). it would be excellent if some of u manage to come.

i have to finnish now, ill be back soon hopefully..so stay happy and dont cause troubles to your mamas. kisses, i miss u all.
Hallo popolo.
i said to my self that some of u might feel a lack of art and culture in your hard-working academic and profesional lives, so here i come to help you. our president had birthday last week, and i would like to share with you one stunning jewel of contemporary arab lyrical poetry. it was published in a state-owned newspaper, and promptly translated. This piece, unfortunately, it's not an irony. enjoy:

My dear child,

On the celebration of your birthday, I find myself at a loss as to what kind of gift I should offer you, my most beloved child.

On this happy occasion I asked myself: Should I offer you a flower, watered with the water of the Nile, and that flourished in the embrace of the palm trees… and as I presented it to you, it took the shape of 70 million of my sons and daughters?

Or should I take the traditional course and light a candle for your birthday, and all my sons and daughters would gather round as they sang with a beautiful voice and with all their heart ‘happy birthday Mr. President’?

Shall I just plant a kiss on your forehead my beloved son?
What can I do to express my happiness on the day of your birthday… well I will recount, on this happy occasion, something precious in my mind, your long and difficult path which takes you to my heart, my memory and my feeling.

You are a powerful eagle soaring the skies… teaching my enemies lessons they cannot forget, and you protect me from the shame of defeat.

You, my beloved child, tackle the difficult issues like a noble fighter, carrying my sons and daughters to security, comfort, allowing the flower of freedom to bloom and sing the melodious tunes of democracy.

You tower above all patiently, while some of my children try to tarnish the forum of freedom, abusing the democracy which you have welcomed through doors and windows.

You have been patient with some of my children who have lost their way, and wished they could see the light. You didn’t try to silence any voice or break any pen, for the sake of freedom and democracy. You treated them like a noble knight.

I know you don’t like praise… but you are a part of me and with the rest of my sons and daughters, you are my wealth.

Happy Birthday,
Egypt

PS: i will write something more about me in next few days, i promise... you must agree, it would be not appropriate from me to mix my low human stories with such divine verses. cheerz

Ciao crewers,
I did my search for some pics in my laptop, but i dont have any special ones. thats the best what i have for the moment. in one week Luiza will come, my polish friend (most of u may remember her from her Leiden visit) and she will make some more photos for sure, so i will share them after.



the one with music is from the hostel where i stayed for more than a month. it was a pure social and party hostel, ideal place for chill out. I even eventually met one american guy who turned to have the same grand grand grandmother with me. so we got drunk ritually, to celebrate the family reunion. what else can i expect from this unbeleivable world?


the others are from my walks around city with one slovak artist who was looking for inspriration. he painted few nice big canvases which were later exibited here in the gallery for couple of weeks. it was nice to go out with him and listen to his artistic fantasies. he did not speak english nor arabic, so me or another friend had to be with him all the time. We have soon realized that if you leave an artist unattended in cairo u wont find him again easily. but we had fun at least and the artist guy was as lucky as only naive people can be. than for a week i was going out with Vranas, which was great guy. greek egyptian, applying stathi's measures the ideal of mankind , and i liked him also. www.vranas.net if u r interested. he dresses like that all the time, with 2 ancient knives and 1 sword from some philipinain monastery under his coat..so it is fun to walk with him on the street. he lives and works in Aswan, southern egypt. i plan to go there and visit him in 2 weeks. his grandfather was Georgij Gurdjieff, an extraordinary budhist-sufi spiritual thinker. i heard so many interesting stories as never before. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G._I._Gurdjieff i think particularly stathi will enjoy it.

i have quite many things to do these days. hopefully i will have internet at home in comming week, so we will be able to communicate more intesively. now i live with Bjarne, which is norwegian photographer doing crazy portraits. but now he is in Alexandria for work and he leaves in end of the month anyway, so i will have to find someone else. u can check his work, which i really like on: www.barebjarne.no or http://www.flickr.com/photos/43136708@N00/408960716 . there are many from egypt also. if u find a photo of Mark, guy with a cigarette, that's the one who's my relative,heh.
im missing all of you..i hope u r doing well and smiling your way through the day.
cheers to africa, asia and mama europa. and please post your addresses to database, coz postcards are waiting on the table. kisses. salam.

Hola to the tremendous Leiden Crew!

Three continents are hosting now the members of this glorious international network of friendship and diversity. Hope you are all doing fine with your new life, even though I know, that some of you are doing more than fine and currently are extremely happy with the changes in your life. The same applies to me too, Madrid is just amazing! It is always sunny, but not very worm yet, and as you all know Spanish people are expressive and joyful enough! The night life in the capital is luscious, however I am trying to resist as much as I can to it and focus in the PhD courses I am following, as the level, of the course and the Spanish language, is quite advanced. Hopefully I will be done with the Thesis by June and after the exams (in Spanish!) I wait Kostas1 or Kostas2 to make the tour of Spain (if there is enough money left of course of course).
Hope somebody of you will come to visit Madrid, I do not expect Laura and Peter to make it this spring (for obvious reasons), but I do wait Kostas, Aris and Eleanna at least, and who knows, maybe some more.
Well, it has been some time since the start of this historical Blog and at this moment, I am happy I managed to contribute (with delay).
I would like to acknowledge Peter's work and thank him for his dedication and the creation of this Blog; and all the rest of course that made this Blog functional and alive!
From now and on I will write more often and try to upload some classic photos of the past glorious Leiden moments!

With all my love to the most beautiful people,
Stathis

Ahoj again..
i have one small practical request on you. I was thinking that each of us could post and update his/her postal address or other contacts on this page, due to our unstable localizations. these infomations can be used for postcardal purposes, unanounced visits, and other abuses. Because now i have 3addresses of Laura in my address book and none of them is valid, soon the all L page will be only Lauras addresses, re malaka. so go on, Database yourself!!
cheers and love
