Spring is here!

And after long not coming back to blog space, sitting in a bus going from Vilnius to Kaunas, listening to best Anathema albums.. Hi you all again!
There were some memoriable moments since last post, so, am feeling like it's the right time to come here. But as I'm very lazy person, here's only short notes on last weeks:

- Birstonas! One of niciest Lithuanian resort. After launching pilot version of current project I'm working with and by coincidence having four day-offs, I've decided to go to this silent and calm place. There also is one small but very cosy hotel Sofijos rezidencija with design with ambitions to look like several palace of our historical figures - dukes and noblemans. Actually, didn't felt that very much, but the place is really nice. And they do have VIP sauna and pool! :)








- Every year me and my university mates are organizing party called "Hedgehog in a Fog" (I guess for eastern europeans it means a bit more than silly title) :) Main idea of this is taking sauna and having fun together with guys with whom we were studying at the same place. However, if the party wan't as crazy as it used to be before, but now I have some more places to recommend. Karkle is the small village on the seashore. For the first time in my life I did spend some time walking the coast in the night. That's magnificent!!! I just know, that I'm going to do that again! After this, we also visited Klaipeda - my second favorite town in Lithuania (advertise: you may find some post about this in my blog). Vente, Rusne as well.. Going to those places through roads that are flooded was one of most interesting experiences (ok, I know - town boy went out of city) :)
















- ITG bowling! As I stayed in Vilnius for quite a long time, we had a team playing in our company's bowling tournament. We failed in very first stage, but we became most popular team in 'Lucky losers' poll :)) So, we're back to Stage 3! And that's not enough - we won Stage 3, so we're in semi finals now :D Stop us if you can! Just am wondering on possibility to play - I'm going back to Copenhagen soon, one guy is leaving our com :) And in the time this writing was coming to the air, we made it to the finals! :D

- NOVEMBRE! OK, this one is the last for now. According to the list of my most times listened bands in last year, Novembre is one of my top 10 bands. And they came to Lithuania. I'm missing seeing live performances only for couple of my top10 bands now :) Anyway, shortly about the show - Frailty, Latvian doom band was the one to start evening. As I wasn't expecting nothing specal from those guys, they did surprised me with quite qualitative music. Maybe the Baltics will begin playing more doom metal now? :)
Novembre - passion in their eyes, list of best songs from old releases. Even if I missed some of my favite ones, but their performance was a happiness that such bands are coming to our country not in their career breaking down.. What's next?! :)
Is Arch Enemy having a concert somewhere not far away?


Lithuania is beautiful..
