Time to leave football capital

The last days were filled with soccer, dinners arranged and payed for by my guests, and trying to squeeze tent, matress, sleepingbag and clothes for three months into one tiny bag.
Today it's meeting some collegues in the office (job? work? what the heck is that? can't remember...), and doing everything that has to be done before traveling, and I didn't manage to do yet. Getting money for UK and Denmark, f.e. - they don't have euros, and i forgot. I got used to just paying with euros in all the other european countries I visited lately.
Plus I have to buy some rubber duck for Rubberduck from HC, and get some more stuff ordered by my fff aka favourite finnish friends. Klösse! Imagine!
To keep you on track: I found a flat in Helsinki from July 15 to Aug 7, and a flat in Riga from Aug 3 to Aug 17. Watering the flowers for my HC-hosts is all they asked for. I don't have to stay there all the time, but I may. Nice, hein?
Oh, and I met a few more finns to spend time with in July, going by bike to picnics at the sea and/or lakes, building up legospacechips (there are some geeks around, but they're nice all the same), riding famous finnish horses (or maybe just give them apples and sugar), going up north to Lappland. And much more.
Oh, and tonight I almost meet up with Ivan from Madrid. His plane will land at 21:50 and mine will leave at 21:55. We're kind of used to almost meeting. Same in Madrid on May 26. Same in Riga in July. He leaves, I get there.
But I will definitely meet Roberto from Padova in Vilnius in August. :-)
