From home to Europe. My shiny lovely lioness sending me to way :)
How I cannot smile when I have amazing friends around.
I am safe and sound back in London. I landed this cold and freshly freezy country 13th of November. Felt little like back in time, altho 3 amazing months have passed in speed of sound.
But before when I tell you how is it to be back the metropolitan of Europe I will stop and write down little adventure description towards SFO to TLN. So, first two flights were pretty smooth, SFO to Kennedy was fine, no problems and delays. Kennedy to Schipol/ Amsterdam was fast, as we had strong back wind and landed 5:50am. Then things got interesting. My airline was shut down, bankrupt. Unfortunately my flight was booked under other company and connecting flight wasn't bought from directly Estonian air any other local dealer. So, I couldn't fly to back Estonia this Sunday, I had 24 h layover in Amsterdam.I didn't received no information. I had my 5 tears, swiped them off 3 min after and started to find a solution. First - where is my luggage? after running 3 different locations I got it. Success. Next hotel. Booked a expensive hotel near airport, I just denied thought that I'm gonna spend 24h with my huge luggages and jet lagged in airport. And over the all, to be honest I enjoyed that day only for myself. Took way too long warm shower, ate too much junk food and slept and watched shows random times all day long. I was too relaxed to go lively to downtown....and it was cold and rainy.
Little memory with half sign of Amsterdam
...and 9am waiting my flight back to Estonia
While I travel,
I make sure I have all my sweet memories and little lucky pieces with me
Bye Estonia
So now in London...
California is always my home and I miss it as insane already. I made agreement and peace with me, I promised myself to enjoy my time over London, get myself ready to go back home when time is right. Educate myself here and there, create new connections, smile and laugh.
Week have passed and I feel that things are getting may be little bit more settled. It's Monday afternoon and I'm writing this little update in cute cafe in south east London place called Crystal Palace sipping peppermint tea with honey. Its 9 degrees outside. What really giving me back my motivation and power is sport. Have always been and today morning was this glorious day when I went to run :)
So that party is started
with my dear dear friend and running buddy Isca
I dont say that it was super easy to come back. But I do say that it is easier to come back when you know you have your work waiting and friends welcoming you back "Felt like that you never left" means so much for me. Of course I am changed, so do everyone else and thats beautiful part of life. You can always look at the bright side of life, the cup is rather half full than half empty.
So here I am and I know that good changes and improvements are on the way. You do not have to even guess, I have my troubles and problems over here but I see it as a way of again - growing and learning, getting experience of life.
I am hugely happy and thankful for my friends over here who have been helping me already tons of being there with my struggles and finding my place. Aitah.
Success in life come, when you refuse to give up.
Bye bye Sweeties, hear soon
Love,
Silja
