I'll cut the unessesary crap right out of the way. Im gonna travel on the other side of Russia in the end of this month, for unknown amount of time. And no, im not gonna disappear right away. See Detailed Info for more. Spoiler: Detailed info (TL;DR) Recently I've decided (not by my will and choice) to travel to the Southern part of Russia, in the village (summer colony\suburbian village) with the strange name Ostrov ((Остров)which translates as Island, believe it or not). The reason behind this choice is very simple: My grandparents are having some trouble over there, and I can help them with it. And its a great chance to get some sun and warmth, since this sinkhole I call "hometown" is still covered with snow and dirt. So, I've already got my tickets and Im ready for my travels. Im gonna hop onto train at 22:48, May 29-th and arive somewhere around... Early morning of May 31. When Im gonna get back - I dont know. I sure know im not gonna spend the whole August in there. In this time span of 2-3 months, I would not be able to play Flood (or use Steam in that regard) and use in Discord Voice Chat. My activity will drop down to a minimum, or even to 0. However, if everything will be fine, I would be able to use my crappy mobile router to help with major questions and troubles (if they will apear), or make updates on my current status. Thats all there is. Ill try to update this thread, when something major will happen. Like change of dates, for example. Also, you can ask for pictures and stuff if you want. Ill make a separate thread for that.
Ok, its toime. My disappearing act has begun. You'll not see me for the rest of the summer. Be thankfull for that.
I reached my destination 3 days ago. One day and two nights at always moving train, next to four kids (two girls and two boys), elderly and a mother. I was an "uncle" for a day for those brats. Town of Pskov greet me with cold winds and rain, and I've stayed near my "neighbours" waiting for a ride for about an hour or so. Still, I've made my way to Ostrov without much trouble. As for now, weather here is not that great. Winds, rain, clouds... Hope for a better weather still holds. Situation with my connection to the outer world is... horrible. Im payin' 3$ per month for 1gb of data. And other offers are not available in this region, which is BS. I can't *leek* much info for you, but ill try to hold connection for a while and update my status, when its possible. Spoiler: South, eh?
Welcome to the life of no internet nya. Now you can experience what I did . I hope you enjoy your time away, and come back to us soon. We miss chu.
Week 1 (actually, more than 1 week) passed. Results: Painted shower room (outside) in green. Bashed my head against a bookshelf. Few times. It was sunny for 1 day only. Other days of this week - rain and cold winds. Knees and arms in pain, back of my neck + shoulders - sunburnt. Fuckin' Mosquitous Fat and ugly still. Spoiler: Guess what im doin' all this time Also, found this in my gramps shack. Looks like he wants to be a Jungle Huntah. Spoiler: Whack-a-bush (machete) See ya next week.
When you see a Russian person wearing sandals and socks together. Also I miss ya man. I hope you're having fun eating piroshki in there. C:
Critical Information Recieved! Ill return in the next month (in the begining of July (probably)). Also... snow. Snow! FUCKING... SNOW IN JUNE! LMAO! Spoiler: see "lmao"
Week 2. 22-25 c' outside. 4 days in a row. Mashin' trees with machete. Snapin' logs with hatchet. Second week, and I already look like a Lumberjack (or a hipster in that case) Went to the city ONCE! Wrote about 50~ pages. Still didn't finish my work. Hands weak, palms are sweaty (mom makin' soup. Not spaghetti.) I have nothing interesting to show you guys, but... Meet Paul - my neighbour spider. Spoiler: Paul This funny guy chills in the corner (right next to my (f)laptop) every day. He's just a kid, and his parrents (Sometimes i can see them crawlin' on the wall) chillin' somewhere near. Paul (and his parrents) helps me catch any flying bug (almost any), that makes his way into my corner. And if at least 1 mosquito will try to ruin my sleep - Paul will catch that bitch. Good job, Paul. Welp, see ya next week.
Third week passed. Weather is getting worse day by day. I came here to chill out and help elderly... But im still angry. My point of view changed. (i'll mention the details later, at home.) Still didn't visit the city of Ostrov. Got photos of the shack Im in and thats it. Job done on two fronts. Spoiler: Results: Week 3 This is probably the last time Im gonna update my status on this situation. I will see you all in the next month and tell (or even show) everything when when my ass will touch the cozy couch, back at home.
@Nyaaa~ ∑:3 I hope things get better for you. Helping the elderly isn't as easy as it sounds but you are an absolute saint for doing it I hope the rest of the trips gets better for ya man!
