cold winter in Poland and there are falling further records of heat. It is warm, it is quite hot.
Slippers, light pants, T-shirt is my dress for a week. There are a lot warmer than in July and August. Sometimes I catch myself in that I think "but cool summer":)
Every morning we play tennis, this is my latest passion. In San Francisco courts are free, there are many and are in excellent condition. I live 800 meters from a beautiful park, which is 7 tennis. In tennis I played a few years ago, with varying enthusiasm. I guess I missed a little bit of motivation to overcome obstacles in the form of travel, playing at dawn or late evening, when the court was available, low temperatures, etc.. And here's a beautiful Sunday broke up the bike on which I traveled, we did not want to run and so I landed on the court. Little in spite of themselves, because I set up a bike ride to the ocean by the beautiful Golden Gate Park, long time since I played, all around reflected beautifully, and I do not remember how to hold a rocket. Fortunately, Agata, who encouraged me to play was stubborn, and since then we play almost every day.
In November and December, a passion for Bikram yoga, a very fashionable here. Bikram yoga is a method based on 26 postures performed in a room heated to a temperature over 40 degrees. The gym is very hot, and still is blown hot air. I do not remember how I survived the first lesson:) you should drink water at designated intervals, but the first three classes drank after each exercise, breathe deeply and tried not to faint. Impression is like practicing in the sauna. So after the third class, when acclimatized, I began to focus on positions and their correct execution. At the beginning I happened even once to leave the room for half an hour (classes last one and a half hours).
in January turned into yoga for tennis, but since February I turn to my favorite sauna :)
meetupy Another pastime is a fantastic and very popular in the United way to meet people. In the San Francisco area next week and held about 650 meetings. http://www.meetup.com/ . The main idea of \u200b\u200bthis meeting "in real life people from the neighborhood with similar interests. There is no large-scale forums, the meeting is given a date, place, brief description and RSVP: yes / no / maybe.
My friend Mike runs one of the more popular events in San Francisco - meeting people who like to travel. A few days after my arrival in the United States took place in a meeting of his group, I went, I met great people and so I liked meetupy. Everyone can find something for everyone, and if not, then just take a few minutes to enter data, about $ 12 a month and you can start your group. Some meetings are so popular that rapidly form a waiting list. This is due mostly to logistical reasons - the number of seats in a restaurant, bar area, club seats, etc. in the field of camping. Meetupy are mostly free, some promoters charge a small fee 1 - $ 3, to cover the organizational costs. Some companies use this form to advertise their services, such as tourist trips. My friend Tammy, who is a trainer of dogs used meetup.com to advertise their weekly called, puppy socials, or socializing for puppies and their owners by the way:) The puppies are socialized, coaches monitor play and teach dog owners how to interpret dog body language.
Meet single parents, lovers of wine, people who like foreign films with subtitles, looking for work, people in high places, the devotees of the breed of dogs, there is a lot of sports groups, socialize - Marriage, focused on spiritual development, representatives and fans of a particular culture or language. Meetings are held according to the zeal of the organizer, the organizer often supports assistants. As a rule, everyone gets a sticker, on which he writes his name. The rest is variable. At the meeting, travelers enter the country to which they choose or want to go - a good way to establish a conversation. At the meeting, the Europeans have the flag of the country we come from. At the meeting, those looking for room / apartment for rent or roommates / tenants enter the names of districts in which we want to live, and the maximum price you're willing to pay or give the address and payment of rent. Plaques seekers and providers are in different colors for easier distinction.
Akurat this meeting, namely flatmate meetup took place at the bar, where some people had completely no idea that there is a meetup. Gently insert the pan after a long time staring at our name tags said, "And why every one of you has given the price?")
a few hours, setting off to conquer another continent:)
I am flying to Colombia, a country of coffee and coca. Travel Plan we have more or less developed, with an emphasis on less, but I do like to travel:)
Mike, my friend, leading a group of travel, told me - for inspiration - check the tour travels to Colombia organized by a travel agency specializing in expeditions to South America . None of the U.S. agencies did not organize a trip to Colombia, promises to be interesting:) Fortunately, European travel agents are less restrictive.
Another report on his return, or after 26 January. Hasta luego
:)
