OK, I’ve finally gotten my phone all hooked up. New use of technology = blog revival.

I am in the process of getting my Twitter up and running. Check the sidebar for updates. I am also thinking about blogging regularly again, but as we’re about to go on vacation for three weeks, don’t expect anything until mid-July.

The vacation, you ask? Taking the ferry from Stockholm to Riga, renting a car, driving around the Baltics for a week, dropping off the car in Tallinn, taking the bus to Kostia’s family’s dacha, going to St. Petersburg, and then flying back to Sweden.

From mid-July to mid-August I’ll be teaching a course at the university. After that the plans are a little hazier, but there will be some more admin work for the university and some more freelance editing and translating, at least.

There’s plenty to bitch blog about with regard to international politics, but thinking about it makes me tired. Maybe after vacation.

Who am I?

An American bouncing between Falun, Sweden, and St. Petersburg, Russia with partner Kostia. Current location: Falun.
