So I am Russian. I will be getting British passport next year so I had to get a visa to go on holidays with family to Portugal this weekend.  It's proven to be very difficult. Hard to find the website, then it was all in Portuguese. So took me absolute forever but the appointment I could get was this Tuesday when we fly on Saturday.... I really didn't think I would be making this holidays.... However.... The lady who I had interview with was very helpful and I had my passport with new shiny visa just few hours later.  To be honest all the staff in Consilate General were very helpful. Even if you had to wait for a bit but everyone were leaving very happy.  And I also had an interesting day out. I had an protein juice thing from this place... As we know juicing is in right now.

This week seems a bit never ending... I spent two days on the trains from and back to Birmingham. I went to Bath to tidy up the old flat... Walking from the house back to the train station I was think that this city is very beautiful and I was very miserable there. I walked passed the old work and I did not come in to say hello, I am a little be confused about this. I do miss you guys!  Then the next day I went to London to Russian Embassy to pick up my passport!! Woooo!! The journey it self was good, apart from the dude next to me who was chatting on the phone to some one for the whole time! Like an hr and a half!! Crazy! I was in a queue for my passport for one hour, this is not a great organisation I got to say... But I have it now  even if they did not spell my new married name correctly...  To celebrate and kill some time before my train back I went to Camden. Oh Camden, wish I was where earlier and had more time to look for treasures...
