I was sitting on the couch and it just stroke me. I remembered my time in England. The quiet, cobbled streets of Brixham: the smell of the sea and fish, weeds and lobsters. How we bought some shrimps, amazing big shrimps, went to the casino, walked over and over.

The outbreak of swine flu kept us from exploring London, we had to wear masks and be tested on the borders, but when I saw Wembley from the plain window I knew I would have the best time of my life. We were so young! So damn young and so stunned by the city, that I thought that St. Paul’s Cathedral is just some beautiful church and Victoria’s monument in front of it is an ordinary one. Again, I should know that in London nothing is just a monument… I remember how shocked I was by the Thames – it’s so dirty.
The amazing host-family did their best. I was lucky enough to get a big room with my own bathroom and little ginger-haired sister. We played scrabble, it was probably the first time I ever played the game.
Haha. And people can actually sit on the grass there.
We have been to the ocean, where my clothes were almost washed out by the water, even though they were on a cliff, highest than myself. We all tried surfing and were kinda hit by other experienced surfers.
Oh, I must say we played football every day with English kids. They are awesome. That’s why EPL is one of the best in the whole world.

If only I was interested in photography and had my film camera with me…sigh.

But again, one of the best times ever
