Back to Latvia: 3rd day

You go away just for 5 months and even the favorite ATM has changed its place.
Time in Mexico didn't exist and I still have a feeling that I left just yesterday but it is different to be back. Especially not knowing for how long - don't ask me that. I do have thousand great plans and I will fulfill at least some of them. And - yes, we're still together and that's the best thing that has ever happened.

2 and a half days spent here and my balance:
Forgotten PIN code, getting lost in Riga's public transportation, new tunnel to get to train station, old Russian speaking men conversations in train about good old Soviet times and how smart was Stalin (today, of course, no one is so smart and world, i.e., Latvia, because nothing else outside former Soviet union borders simply do not exist, is going to the end), again seeing double language signs on the streets and shops, indescribable cold (ok, Siberia and other places should be colder but still) and fear to walk out for 15 min not to freeze my legs and face, application for Master studies in a field I'm sure I will love but don't know if I can take it and weak hopes to find a temporary job or projects to fit into normal Latvian life.

See u around!
