Music, Movies, and Books

movies...La Strada by far (Anna), The Big Sleep by far (Pawel) but lots of others too; music-jazz, funk, soul, (just to give you an idea - Ojos de Brujo, Raspigaous, Joni Mitchell, Tribe Called Quest, Manu Chao, Maria Peszek, Tryo, Jack Johnson, Jazzanova- just all of it-DJ Shadow and..and...and...) and just lots of good ones that are oh-so-hard to classify; books...too many to mention, but recently its been Kapuscinski, Lewis, Mann, Miyazawa Kenji...well, thats quite an odd mix I guess.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

amazing thing we have seen...each other in the morning after a big night out ;) amazing thing we have done- stayed together after a night of karaoke singing.

Teach, Learn, Share

Anna: well...i have taught the languages that i speak...I can teach you some basic origami... how to murder your alarm clock or how to glue 240 hooves on 60 reindeers very quickly. Thats useful. Pawel:I can teach you how to set your alarm clock to 'snooze' every 3 minutes for an hour...or how to handle drunk, annoying people who dont want to go home. Comes with working as a bartender, hehe.
