Ühel ilusal päiksepaistelisel hommikul mõtlesin, et peaks minema oma ID kaardile järele, mis juba kaks või kolm kuud Eesti välisesinduses Islandil passib ning mind ootab. Helistasin ræðismaður'ile (välisagent?)
ning küsisin kas täna on hea päev minna kaardile järele. Ta ütles mulle aadressi ning küsis kas ma saan kohe tulla, olin kohe nõus minema, aga avastasin alles tee peal, et see asuv Seltjarnes'is, ehk teisel pool Rvk'i. Kuna ma olin rattaga, siis kulus sinnaminekule umbes tund aega, aga päike paistis, ilm oli karge ja pisut külm ning meri sillerdas, kuulasin Rudimentalit ja kõik oli imeline.
On one nice sunny morning I was thinking that I should go and get my ID card that was waiting for me to pick it up for 2 or 3 months in Estonian embassy in Iceland. I called the minister of foreign afairs or whatshisname and asked him if it was a good day to go and pick it up. He told me the address and asked me if I could go now, i agreed and I just found out on the way that it was all the way to Seltjarnes, which is on the other part of the town. As I was riding my bike it took me almost an hour to get there, but as sun was shinging and the weather was nice and a bit chilly, sea was glittering and I was listening to Rudimental, then everything was amazing.
Riding on my bike
Rvk teatud linnaosas on sellised pildid maalitud majade peale. Imeline. Ma ei ole kindel mis eesmärgil.
(In one part of Rvk there are these pictures painted on houses. Amazing. I am not quite sure what the purpose is though)
(an old Estonian song about sea)
Seltjarnes'is on palju ilusaid imelisi unistuselaadseid maju. Avastasin alles nüüd, et päike on harilikust suvisest ilmast väga palju madalamal ning kohati jäi tunne nagu oleks päike loojumas, hoolimata sellest, et oli kõigest lõuna aga selline ongi see talvine päike.
(In Seltjarnes there are a lot of stunningly amazing dreamalike houses. I just discovered also that the degree of the sun from where it shines is a lot lower than usually and in meantime it felt like the sun was about to set off, although it was just noontime, but then again this is the sun during the winter. )
Towards Grotto...but as it was also in Seltjarnes, then I thought that it would be a great idea to meet again.
In september last year i also visited Grotto when i was in Rvk, i also wrote about it. Who missed it, could still take a look at it at this link on blue up, although it is in Estonian you can still look at the pictures. It was awful weather at that time. :)
(Amazing light, somewhat secrety, meanwhile happy and I think even positive. )
Sain selle pildile. Tagataustal on väike suits, mis tuleb mu meelest ühest tehasest.
(I captured it on the picture. In the background there is a little smoke, that comes from a factory, in my opinion.)
(Little mermaid's sitting on the stone. Joke)
Nagu alati kui sellised tripid ette tulevad, siis on mul ebasobivad jalanõud jalas. Ja nii ka sel korral.
Välisagent kiitis mu islandi keele oskust ja küsis kui kaua ma siin olen olnud ainult 7 kuud ning pole kursusel ega kusagil käinud.
Kuigi võõrad inimesed kiidavad mu keelt, ei ole see mu jaoks endiselt veel piisav, tunnen end ikka keeleliselt üsna ebakindlalt. Tahaksin rohkem ja rohkem osata. Võib-olla peaksin ka võtma juurde keele kursuse siis saaks päris soravalt rääkima hakata ja uusi tuttavaid ka.
The minister of Estonian foreign afairs in Iceland told me that I spoke Icelandic very fluently even though I have been here only for 7 months and I haven't attended in any language courses.
Even though people who I don't meet every day tell me that my language is amazing I still feel kind of uncomfortable in language wise. I want to speak more and more and know more, maybe it is a great idea to take up a course in order to gain some more practice and to start speaking it fluently, maybe get new mates as well.
