Så I just got my confirmation status - I am no longer unemployed aka I am a freelancer now. This was a very risky decision to make, så if you happen to know someone who would have some suitable gigs for me, please let me know 🙏
In the meantime, I will continue figuring out what Finns want

Disappointed President and Ambassador of 🇪🇪 with my Estonian

There are two new neighbours in the house where my mum lives in. And frankly, just like my relatives, the communication has started flowing through me. People always turn to me as ‘the reasonable one’ and I wish they didn’t do that.

An aspiring politician that once randomly requested me to translate his ‘congratulating speech’ into Latvian (for the independence day, I ignored) has been fined dearly for 55 falsified expense reports he made as municipal council member aka stealing money😁

“Do not feed the foxes”

What I find truly disheartening about the whole Epstein/Putin/Trump triangle is that the person that seemingly worked as a contact worked for the European Council. Former Norwegian PM.
We have traitors among allies. They’re not necessarily the ones we talk about everyday

When I see the pictures and videos with the Ukrainian cats and how they seem to keep the Ukrainian spirit alive by just being there during what feels probably even worse being a cat….

Speaking of Martinmas. My mum’s paternal line holds a surname “Martinaitis”.
-aitis indicates “the young one”, it’s like the Scandinavian “sson/sen” pretty much. Keeps me wondering who was the first Martinas*
PS: nowadays, standard is Martynas

Man, kā lietuvietei (nevis vēsturniecei) Lāčplēša diena ir kaut kas tāds. Mums nekas tāds nav. Vienmēr skatos bildes no Rīgas un apbrīnoju, no sirds priecājos par jūsu uzvaru.
Varbūt pat varētu teikt, ka tieši šīs dienas dēļ iemīlēju Latviju, tās kultūru un vēsturi. Apsveicu!

This issue of Memeler Dampfboot (newspaper for people from Memel/Klaipėda region) in 1940 announces the fall of Paris. Two pages writing about it and then casually (useful) ad for cigarettes :D
