At an airport again

I wonder how many hour I spent waiting at an airport. Even though airports are pretty impersonal places, I love them. A lot of people, everybody going somewhere, something beginning, something ending. Its busy or empty. Time to think, time to relax. Or stressful, if something delayed you or others. They all look thesame, and also totally different....
Jessicas airplane has left and Im now alone, sipping a latte and spending my time at the wi-fi café. Not bad at all. I want to to say thanks to Jessica for great company on this trip, it wouldnt been the same without you! As I new before, this would be a different trip from many others. It ever came out more giving than I dared to hope for. Shortly I can say, its great to get time to think and also realize some mindtroubles on distance ;)

Just some of my thoughts felt to share. Now Im looking forward to meet family and friends. Get back to my great jobs (yes, I do look forward to them!) and out to the stables for my horses! And not to forget, my fluffy Robbie (THE dog!).

Got one good advise: Travel!
Best wishes, Hella

Listvyanka, Lake Baikal -> Moscow!

From a hidden village in east Russia along Lake Baikal to a speeded Moscow after 4 days and three nights on the trans-siberian railway. What a change of atmosphere.
Listvyanka is beutiful and relaxed. We hang out with 2 canadians we met there, they also travel with the train towards Moscow. The water of lake Baikal is incredibly clear. On the other side snowy mountains stretched along the ice blue water. Our 2 nights here was at a family, with mother Olga caring for us. For breakfast we got pancakes with cottage cheese, jam, bread with THICK slices of cheese. After Olgas breakfast, you dont need to eat for several hours...
Me and Jessica enjoyed many walks along the beach. Breathing the fresh air. We needed this after all smog in China ;) We tried to find a boat trip, but they were all to long for our short stay. Probably its easier if you travel summertime. It was a bit difficult with the language. Peolpe here doesnt speak english, and dont want to either? Without dictionary you manage to get around, but many many times I wish I'd bough one.
Last day I and Kristina (one of the Canadians) completed ur mission we both (we didnt know each other before) to swim in the lake! Freeeeeezing! OMG... but we were som satisfied with ourself doing it. Hope we get the 25 more years of life now ;)
 
Back on the train again on sunday. 3 nights on the train. Today, wednesday, we arrived in Moscow. During these days we shared our compartment with Gregori (one of the most kindest, helpful old men I ever met, he bought us cookies, ice cream, and of course vodka -he was true russian- and helped us to find the metro in moscow, only for good will), and a women with her kid Barbara stay only for one night, then changed for a young man I dont know the name of for next night wich got of after a short ride. Next man into the compartment was the happiest russian guy ever. Constantin also spoke english, wich helped the hole coversation a lot! When he got of a lady entered. Kind and quit. I never thought these days should run so fast.
 
Moscow seems like most big cities. Stress. Rush. People. So much peolpe! We dragged our heavy bhe backpacks and bags trough metros and into our hotel. Steaming hot. The shower was more fantastic than nice and for the first time since I left sweden, the beds are SOFT. Awesome. I gonna jump into that bed right now.... sleep tight!
