Picture time

I woke up this morning at my parents house in Lithuania and it felt like a dream, though it's hard to tell if the dream is to be in Lithuania or the time spent in Ghana was a dream that is over? Good that I've made my hair for IC to be representing Ghana, it doesn't let me forget;)

And I've started thinking "how to define home?". Is it where you are? Where your family is? Where your boyfriend/girlfriend/loved one is? Where your friends are? Where you have residence permit in your passport?:) It's a bit tricky to define and I don't have the answer yet, but here are some pictures from both worlds.

In Ghana...

Money in Ghana is a fun issue, because the biggest nominal of paper money is 20 000 cedis, which is a bit more than 2 USD or 3 litas or a bit less than 2 euros. So just imagine if you need to buy something bigger - you take a black bag full of money:) Here you see my "salary".

My best friends in Ghana (a fun thing is that for two weeks since next wednesday none of us will physically be in Ghana:): Patrick, Peter, me and Maryna.

Martin - "my first trainee" and a ride in a tro-tro, which is always quite an experience.

A fun gang at Cape Coast Castle: Leke, Misha, me, Daniela (in front), Martin, Kerstin, Saulius, Christian, Patrick (on Saulius)

In Lithuania... First night out with friends...

Sexy Elvio with Ghanaian necklace. I HAD to put this picture here:p

Daiva & Elvio:) This picture also has more important features: mojito ice tea - delicious;), elvio's gadget collection and both of them are wearing Ghanaian necklaces:)


Somebody received some really cool presents;)


In case you don't notice: I've received an official bracelet with Ghana from the football championship!!! It's priceless...

Hey, girls;)

If I knew that my hair would add up to my popularity so much, I would have done it earlier:D:D:D

I really cannot believe as well that I'm in Lithuania:) as I've said it all feels like a dream. But Lithuania hasn't changed a bit:) it's just great to meet with my people again:)

I guess I'll see some of you pretty soon as well:)
