17th Nov
I woke up 5am this morning as my last day at Tura's House,Olot. I wanted to sign up with work away but seem not working either. We leave house 6am and was chating Jaya Ganesha on the way to train station. I arrived station at 7am and i said good bye to Tura. I reached Barcelona at 83om and catch bus to terminal 1, Barcelona airport. I checked in my backpack and surf 15min for free at airport yet i forgot to check in my swiss knife given by Boris. I have to pay extra 20euro to check in my small backpack. This was the longest ride i had from Barcelona to Athens. I arrived Athens airport at 3pm and pick up my backpack. Lefteris was waiting for me at airport as he told me he cant join me in Athens as he have to meet his professor in University. I was very happy to see him again. We arrived Sythagma Sq at 430pm. He called his cousin and I waiting my host Eirini at metro station till 6pm.

We met at 930am at station. Lefteris drove me to Russia Embassy. We reached Embassy and been informed that we have to go to consular instead. We drive and seraching consular and finally we reached Russia consular at 10.00am. After waiting 2hr, the consular told us i not allowed to apply tourist visa as i not resident. We rush to China Embassy and finally able to submit my passport before the close at 12.30pm. We had lunch at pizza hut. I leave Athens at 3pm. We stop at Army camp site he used to attend in 2008. It was sunset and near beach was nice. Finally we back home at 6pm.

I arrived Patra finally.
He was waiting for me at the airport without informed me as he wana to give me surpise. He told me he cant go to Athens as he have appointment with his professor.I out of expected saw him at airport.I was very touch! He stay with his cousin where same place where my host staying.

Athens very traffic and crowded. I and my host met another German girl at center at nite. There might be demostrantion and police stand by. so the city was quite that nite.

It 2 1/2 hr journey from Athens to Patra. On the way back we dropped by his camp field when he was joined the army 3 years ago. It a really nice camp where facing the beach and on top of mountain. And we passed by few some town to avoid toll road which is nicer view.

Do u know i was dreamt one of the nite Lefteris left the house.I felt so strange how can i know before he told me. I told him the next morning and he told which is true. He have to visit his parents few days and ask me to look for couch here. At same day i had big fight with him and he was told me long relationship do not work for him. He just to comfort me that time when he saw i was crying. But after the fought we're never fight again as we knew that we love each other and the time and distance is a problem. but now we know how each other feeling. and he sent me to hospital that day as i have uraine infection after my period. Now everything is ok and will be smooth.

Dont be fear, believe in with yourself. This was my boy taught me how to be strong. Dont be afraid to make a decision and respect your decision once u done. Follow your hear as how u feel how strong u root on the earth.
