Back to life

Well folks, i'm on the road again, after severl months (9) of studying, eating, studying, sleeping and back to the beggining again and again, i'm officially done with my f****ing teaching exams (oposiciones for those who know a bit about the painfull, nonesense and completly random process of becoming a PE teacher in Spain).
yesterday i completed my second and last exam so i've done all i could in this bussiness. right after that Heidi left Spain for some holidays in austria and some work in California (lucky her!), so all in a sudden i find my self with more time to waste than an hijo puta en el día del padre (...a lot).
I'm still working part time at the uni, i'm supposed to work on my PhD thesis, dunno how fast i'll do it if i get the teaching job.
for this summer i'm going to Mallorca (18th-27th July) for some Psicoblock with some spanish and austrian friends. i'm really excited about that.
Straight from mallorca i head to austria, where i'll spend 2 days with Heidi's family until she's back from US. Then, we'll visit the suroundings and spot some climbing places in Öster-right (?)... Back to Spain the 20th August and flying again to Lanzarote (Canary islands) for the last week of holidays.
Don't write all this to make you jealous my friends, just to let you know my plans after all this months of misery and silly studying. I'm so keen on spending time with friends, climbing, laughing and loving (only with you heidi, of course!), brrrrrrrrrr...
Well, some personal post:
- Ila or any other finnish climber: is anyone coming to Mallorca with me? or you are just thinking of you 45cm walls of soumi, hehehe
- Sebas: vas a estar en Mallorca esos días de julio?
- Carlos: como va todo güey? ayer me cené unas enchiladas a tu salud.
- National football selection: it wasn't quite fair you won just the day before my final exams, try to do it the day after next time.
- Rest of the world: i love you all now that i'm back to life!

HOASSS ISSSS!

Happy new 2008!

Bit late for "Merry X-mas!" and "Happy new 2008s!", but anyway, better late than never.
My life in Toledo (Aleho!) has been pretty quite lately. I'm just studying and climbing or travelling around during the weekend with Heidi & Friends.

Here I show some pics from the last climbing trip to Albarracín (Fuckin Bouldering Paradise!!!), Escorial and Pedriza. I have never seen more climbing potential as in Pedriza, really sharp granite though!

Our friend Georg (Shrully?) back in Escorial


Last monday I went to Pedriza, trying a really nice project, check this link
to see the video a friend made.

Well my friends, I hope you are all right, hopefully you can climb as much as you want or at least be as happy as you can.

Big Hugs to all

A lo CubAno!

Sorry Folks, it's been a loooooooong while since I wrote last time, but i've been busy...let's start from the begining of the end:
After Örebro, to land at home felt great, but just had time to pack and take the next fight to Cuba (poor me..., he!). and there started a great trip with Heidi.
Cuba is amazing, the landscape is awesome and you can find the oddest professions in the street. The people are quite divided concerning the system and current situation, which has great things (free health and education) and quite nasty ones (no freedom, chance to leave the island...); but besides Castro's opinion, they are great, with an endless sense of humor and bloody hell, they know how to dance (that's why heidi and me started once in Toledo a dancing course 2/week...don't laught!).

we travelled as much as we could. We went climbing to Viñales (first things first) and then "living la vida loca" in between mojitos and coffee plantations. Difficult to tell you all without writing too much. Just some pictures will do the trick.Old Havana, fuc*ing scary to live in one of those houses when raining

El Cobre, nice little village close to Santiago de Cuba

once back in toledo, i had a busy week. I'm still analysing some samples with a borrowed microscope and climbing a bit (pic of me 70km from home).

I hope everything goes great for all of you. i miss you in spite of the happiness that souround me
over here. Mua!

Örebro is on fire

God Dag min kamrat!!!

¡Hola a tod@s desde Suecia!
La verdad es que no he hecho mucho desde que estoy aquí a parte de trabajar en el labo tol día. Pero la cosa se pone interesante entre tanta pipeta y anticuerpo, je!
Ando viviendo en un pisete re-canijo con mi compi Dimitris el griego, que se marcha el martes y me quedaré solete solete.
Aunque esto me cueste el cuello entre mi coleguitas fineses, estos suecos sí que saben hacer ciudades. Örebro (250.000 personas a ojo de buen cubero) está construida siguiendo un río bien bonito, con su castillo y unos parques bien bonitos. Un poco menos asilvetrao que los vecinos y ea, da más la sensación de vivir en comunidad.
Ayer fui a un concierto (yo solito, eh!) que organizaba el partido de las juventudes social-demócratas de acá (qué orgullos estareis Pita y papá, eh?), pero bueno, fue una casualidad que me encontré en el parque (En la foto, el vaticino sueco para 80 años con la derecha al frente).
Os mando una foto mía (autorretrato) desde el laboratorio donde trabajo, no vaya a ser que se os olvide mi faz desde tanto tiempo ha que nos vimos por última vez (¿qué pensarán de mí con tanto pelo facial como llevo?).
En 2 semanillas largas nos vemos compañero (principalmente a los bolos), hasta entonces, un beso y una arbrazo bien fuerte!

Ultimo finde

Pues sí, como bebé prematuro me encuentro de repente con la salida, como preso a la fuga, de soumi-land. Y es que la visita a Suecia (por curro, eh!), que ya daba yo por perdida, se ha precipitado y he tenido que hacer la maleta en un pis-pas. Pues eso, que el lunes me voy para Örebro por 3 semanas y empalmo con mi vuelta a Madrid, ay madre mía madre mía. Y la verdad es que me siento...cómo decirlo...raro. Qué sé yo, tengo tremendísimas ganas de veros a tod@s (especialemente a Heidi que para esas fechas llevará 3 días lidiando con el castellano por allá), y por otro...qué cojones, por otro tengo más ganas todavía porque 5 días después me voy pa Cuba, ja! Pues debe ser de la emoción, del cambio súbito de planes o del calentamiento global que no duermo del todo bien estas últimas noches, pero bueno, hay que darle marchita a la vida que si no se arruga.
Os veo muy pronto a tod@s. Un abrazo y ya os cuento desde con las suecas chitín! (jejeje)
