Reason maybe...
Think my mate I was trying to get you in touch with was going to Metalica or Peal Jam or something that night, so maybe thats where everyone was, let me know in advance if you plan to go back so I dont have to try and sort it on the spot!

Great stories!
Hi Derek, You don't know me but I found your blog on the web searching for 'travel blogs of Poland'. I just started travelling myself recently you see and although I'm based in France at the moment am super keen to travel the rest of the world (like everyone else I guess) and especially Poland. My Dad is Polish so i have lotsa untapped heritage I need/want to delve into! I love your blog -you write very well! As I am keeping a blog at the moment too its great to get tips. Though mine isn't as interesting I think because so far I've been in one lil town for a month (the novelty is definitely starting to wear off!!). Interestingly enough I'm a kiwi (not surprising- we all escape over here huh) but am close friends with a huge group of ex Mt Roskill grammar students. Small world. What year did you graduate? Anyway, best of luck -keep the blog up and enjoy the adventures -many more to come I'm sure! I did identify recently and found It funny your description of Italy (loved up couples and PDA) -wow yes -we have lotsa them here in France (hence 'french kisses' i guess) ...as someone travelling alone -yuck! Until i can get some too I dont wanna see that!! hehe Cheers, safe trips, Dannii

ooh burn, are you going to take that, "perennial sidekick" Davies? nah good write up Derek.... Wish we'd known all those building names while we were there ;-)

Good one Delek
Great blog again Derek. Was great to have you here, albeit for such a short time. Hope you like the photo Rob took in the water of you facing up to a large wave. Wasn't the sea perfect that week?! Enjoy the rest of your time at home. xx

Oslo
I'm sorry you find my homecity so unattractive and cold. Please let me tell you that our summers are completely different. we have a beautiful summer which is a lot nicer than the rainy British summer. There is only dark a few hours at night and the temp usually lies between 16-26 degrees celcius. The reason Oslo is so expensive is because our wages are so high, you need to match that up. Our minimum wage is around 15 pounds, so you can do the math. I live in the UK myself, andI have to say that the standard of living here is a h*** of a lot lower than Norway's. But anyway, you should try to see Oslo sometime in the summer or autumn. Beautiful colours...! or alternatively, go somewhere else than Oslo next time you're in Norway!

Nice story! I m from estonia. Thanks for visiting us. But were not so cold like our weather you just went into wrong places to party. Yeah hollywood is great club but the real action is in Nimeta baar, Levikas or Hell Hunt. There the people are more friendly and active.

haha
ARCHITECTURE IN HELSINKI TO PLAY NZ FOR FIRST TIME EVER Strange News, 95bfm and Cheese on Toast present for the first time ever in New Zealand , Architecture in Helsinki on Thursday 13 December at Kings Arms with support from The Ruby Suns. Tickets are just $35 from Fast and Loose and Real Groovy. Architecture in Helsinki will also be playing at SFBH in Wellington on Friday 14 December. Maybe you could fly back for christmas and the gig? :) Nah, hope things are all good bro (except for missing out on the gig that is...)

ya, denmark was really beautiful eh? I did find it expensive as well but apparently sweeden, Norway and Finland especially are the most expensive. All my relatives that i visited there said that they never go out to eat at a restaurant because its so expensive. Its also really pricey to buy a vehicle there too. lots of people just train. Apparently if the Aussie princess can learn danish- we should be able to as well! cheers

As we say in Croatia...
Jesi majstor! Vidimo se u Londonu :-)

Damnit D, your blogs are making me jealous and i've just come home from holidaying in Europe . Enjoy croatia, i hear its awesome!
