{I can still recall our last summer}

Fall is finally here and it's getting colder every day. My friend from other city told me that they've had first snow today.
Oh, I'm so not ready for the snow! It's too early! We don't usually have snow until the middle of December! I still want to enjoy my golden autumn)
On such days I like to look through my summer photos. What a great time it was!
These pictures were taken on August 24, the Independence Day (I still have long hair!)), when we went to one of my favorite parks - I've already made a few posts about it, but this one is the best)
It was such a great day - lying in the sun, talking, laughing, eating delicious pies and drinking great Georgian wine. Loved it so much <3

Нарешті прийшла осінь, і тепер з кожним днем стає холодніше. Моя подруга з Полтави каже, що в них сьогодні йшов сніг. Я не готова до снігу! Морально не готова! Ще надто рано! Я хочу, щоб як завжди - перший сніг був у середині грудня! Я хочу золотої осені! В такі дня я дуже люблю роздивлятись літні фотографії. Яке ж було чудове літо! Ці фотографії було зроблено 24-го серпня, у День Незалежності України (тоді в мене ще було довге волосся!). Ми з друзями тоді поїхали у Пирогів, один з моїх найбільш улюблених парків - я вже робила кілька постів про нього, але цей найкращий)
Такий був чудовий день - лежиш собі на сонечку, розмовляєш, смієшся, їси смачнющі пиріжки та запиваєш їх не менш смачнющим грузинським вином. Краса та й годі <3

Agro fitness

It's huge weekend in Ukraine - four days in a row. It's like we hit time without Mondays - three weeks of long weekends.

On Saturday me and my cousin decided to take advantage of it and hit the road. We went to our great grandma's house - to the village 40 minutes outside the city. There's a lot of work there - we're thinking about building a new house there. My cousin has a son and he wants his son to have the same great summers in the country that we've both had. There's a lot of questions about ownership and stuff that we've yet to decide, but it's been a real blessing to spend a day in country.

And to do some agro fitness! We had to deal with and old apple tree and then to clean the old hayloft - you wouldn't believe how dusty and gross it was. We wasn't even able to finish it in one day. Well, I'm looking forward to lot's of weekends in the country.

Here are few pictures of me, my nephew and some cute animals.

Missing spring

I haven't written about my Christmas (I've already said that we celebrate Christmas on January 7) this year because I had no time (and because I'm still waiting for my photos!). But there's one more winter holiday we celebrate - January 13. It's the acient Ukrainian holiday of Malanka and also a so called Old New Year (both this holidays are celebrating on January 13 because of the calendar change).

So yesterdy I was invited to the celebration and it was amazing - we've spent almost all night laughing, dancing, playing games and all that stuff. It was great!

But today, as I walked into my apartment and saw the decorated tree, I felt that that's it. The last winter holiday is over, can I have my spring now, please?

But well, it's not even the middle of the winter yet (one more day, ha!), so I just have to pe optimistic, drink my favorite green tea and look at my favorite spring pictures. 

That's what I'm doing now, actually.

Haven't been blogging for a while. Mostly because I have a LOT of work now (I took a translation project from one of Ukrainian TV-channels and currently working on the first season of The Contender).

I really could use some money, especially now, when my friends from Russia and Lithuania are coming and we already planned a trip to Lviv, an old and really beautiful Ukrainian city with amazing European architecture.

We are going there this week, so I have to finish translations by that time. So no more blogging for now, just work. LOTS of work.

Road trip with my mom

Last weekend was the best weekend ever. My mom and I took our old car and went on a road trip to the small village where I'd spent every summer of my childhood.

We've had a lot of fun, visited a few old towns, their beautiful small churches, farmer markets (where we bought some amazingly delicious raspberries). Ah, and also we found our neighbor's goat in our garden - super cute and with the softest ears ever.
