I remember walking underground somewhere near Sadovoe, and there was a band playing, and a bloke with a hat collecting money from us passers-by. He was saying, 'Help make the Moon green!' Everybody laughed.

Вот ты и вылезла :) Пока оптимистично, интересно, и very good English, bravo!
Не пропадай, пожалуйста, я хочу читать и заходиться от зависти. И эту реакцию ты бы получила от меня уже сегодня, будь с вами хоть один поляк ;)

No, it´s fun all right.

Didn´t get this 'very good English, bravo' - did you think it´d all disappear right after graduation??? %))))

Iceland is surging with Poles. Here in the library all the ads are dubbed in Polish. Immigrants, see.

About not keeping silent - well, I can´t possible sit by the screen a lot, can I? %=)))

Да, блин, позабыла, что ты только-только выпустилась :) Забываться начнет через полгодика, если вдруг не станешь его преподавать.

Ах! Я туда из-за их зимних шапочек (с косичками которые) хотела, теперь вот еще поляки добавились... Доеду когда-нибудь!

You can all right - надо только не сажать деревья, а делом заниматься ;)

Don´t tell me that lo hago en clase, por favor! Me vas a matar =)

No, en serio es divertido y mucho más práctico porque a veces te olvidas de alguna palabra y más vale decirla en otra lengua =)))

Promise you'll take me to do these things with you next time - planting trees, serving pelegrinos in on Holy Paths, dunno-what-else dunno-where-on-this-Earth.
I'm crazy enough for it! Even for the crap-food-days. And love nature.
Promise to take me with you, pleeeasse, O.

Suckers - sounds good! I've checked several volunteer agencies, all offers 2 weeks somewhere starting from 1000 USD :(

WHAT?
What kind of agencies did you check out?! It´s free always, you pay for the flight (which in the end is about that sum of money, though, unless you don´t mind the low-cost drag). Well, here in Iceland you also pay extra participation fee (90 euros) for the food and accomodation coz it´s effing expensive here. In France we even got paid (reimbursement for the travel fee, officially).
