The next days in Lisbon
As a friend of his told that he will donate a sum for the cancer research if Kris will swim naked, only with a handkerchief on his head, and as he´s a crazy Brit :D, they went at the ocean, in Cascais, him and Ovidiu - he didn´t find a handkerchief, but Ovidiu gave him my hat from Maramures, brought as a souvenir from Romania.
In the train to Cascais, with the Romanian hat :))
He´s starting...
He won the sponsorship :DIn the evening Kris moved to Alberto, our favourite Spanish, cause he had a free room in his apartment, and he´s very kind, as always. In our apartment he couldn´t stay anymore, because of the landlord that doesn´t accept someone staying for free...(btw, a skinflint). Some luck with Alberto :-)..I was so glad that he´ll host Kris!
We´ll go to Bairro Alto, but before we stopped at Alberto´s to have some drinks and to chat a bit. His Polish girlfriend, Margarita, is here since a few days. I didn´t see her since a year ago, from the company´s Christmas dinner, but we didn´t get to talk then. It was a chance to get to know her too better. Also Saumya joined us.
Kris told more little stories from his travel around Europe...they were interesting and some of them also funny, probably more like that now when he told them, than when they happened. Indeed he likes to make people feel good, to laugh...
Theoretically, we were supposed to meet in Praça Camões to go to Bairro Alto, at 9, but we stayed a couple of hours before thinking that the delay - even for Portugal :D - starts to be significant. So we left to Bairro, just the 3 of us, Ovidiu, Kris and me, Saumya was too tired..We said that we´ll surely meet some people that we know in Bairro...it´s a small place.
Exiting the metro station we meet Mara and Roxana, 2 Romanians that we met here in Lisbon. We are heading to a jazz bar, when our favourite AIESEC-er, Gonçalo calls, telling that he´ll also join us. In 2 minutes he shows up...the world is small, what about Bairro :D.
We found that jazz bar that the girls knew and we entered.
We stayed until around 2, it was funny, but the next day will be a working day, and we were also a bit tired..
In the next day was a challenge to hang up until the afternoon, having accumulated some tiredness not only from the previous day.. I took off the rest of the week, as I had enough extra hours..That´s nice, finally time to relax!
We talked to Alberto to meet in the evening, around 7-7.30, to have a quick drink, each of us having somewhere to go after, them - to a dinner, us - to the Portuguese classes, organized by AIESEC ISEG for the trainees. We got to Alberto´s around 7.40; Kris wasn´t there, probably he went out in the city..We had a nice chat, but we had to leave, it was 8.30, we were already late for the course.
Waiting for the bus in Marquês Pombal
Anyway, this time were just us and Gonçalo, but it was a funny course...
After the course, we went to the bus stop to catch the bus. We waited a bit too long...after a half an hour we decided to walk until the point where we had to take the second bus. It was a cold wind...We passed next to the Portuguese Parliament, and I took a picture of it, as I didn´t have any with this builidng..
The parliament of Portugal
Ovidiu got a message from Kris to call us in Irish Pub, but I was too tired, and we went home, remaining to meet the next day.
