Hello Everyone,
just thought i would get off my lazy bum and write a blog so that those of you who ( ME AT TOP OF MOUNTAIN BEHIND HOUSE) are not inclined to email me can still hear from me and also see what i am up to as i will post some pictures up here..
well what can i say, i survived the Slovak winter, (lucky it was the warmest one in 1000 years) and am now heading into the summer, so far i have taken cold showers by accident, been hit in both ears with snowballs which has made one have an earache for a while, been attacked by

angry young slovaks and sustained two punches to the head, sliced my finger open with a knife and needed a couple of stitches,, lol, my my my it has been an eventful time. Luckily the school is (AUSSIE BUILT BBQ!!!!!! WOO!!)
keeping me busy and time is seeming to fly past.
I now know my way easily around most of Bratislava and if you want to go to a cafe, tea shop or Resturant here i could easily take you to one depending on what you want to be the major factor of your meal; taste, price, atmosphere.. all of these things i have come to know in my time here and can easily find a great place for you...
everything in this country is interesting to say the least, the coins go from half a crown, or 0.50 helliers, to 1,2,5,10 crown coins, then you get

the 20, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000, 5000 crown notes.. lol,, it all makes paying for anything very interesting, and the notes over 500 crowns can be very hard to fit into ones wallet. ( i shall post some pictures up of the money soonish)
my house is very nice, although it does get a bit cold at times, i think this is more to do with the slovak weather than enything else though, and me being the cold blooded australian that i am i am just praying for summer and some heat so that i can finally feel comfortable and able to walk around in a t-shirt and shorts.
I have some great friends here from all around the world, mainly though it is germans, Aussies and Poms that i am with when i go out, usually Aussies and Poms more than anything, it makes the nights interesting as we will disagree with some things, (pronunciation of words, and general slang) but if somone attacks us on somthing we are united on (what side of the road to drive on) then you had better look out for we will unite and attack,, lol, unity in divesity..
anywho i better be off
work to do here at school
i shall put some more pictures up as they come to hand
lots of love
