At first I just didn't know what to talk about. And then I didn't have anything to talk about. And then I had so so much to talk about that I didn't know where to start, and now I'm beginning to think I'm just plain lazy.
So my hopefully faithful readers - I promise to post a new blog post at least every 3 days. Please feel free to slap me (literally or virtually) if I fail to keep my promise.
So much has happened over the past 3 weeks that it's impossible to jot it all down in one sitting. I went to the island of Saaremaa last week and got to climb into a yacht (probably the only time I will ever have that opportunity). I also probably drank more tea in those two days than I probably have ever drunken in my entire life. Maybe I'm over-exaggerating a bit, but every time someone offered coffee, Filipp would stare at me and ask expectantly if I wanted tea, and I couldn't refuse. Not one time.

On Halloween I dressed up as a mime (but ultimately failed at being completely silent) and participated in a pumpkin carving contest with an embassy team at an Estonian high school (we won the most traditional pumpkin - but not best overall, I don't even think we came close). We had trick-or-treat at the embassy and props to the Marines who created a (pardon my french) kick ass haunted basement.

This is a very dull blog post, but starting tomorrow it will be event after event after event and so there will be no time for dull! So bear with me please, I have a lot in store for you for the next month and a half.
Until next time, it's time for a ball!
