The summer solstice has come so quickly

The month has started with prolonged rainfalls and tense news all over the world. I visited my apartment in the city after staying in the countryside for more than 2 months and in 3 days returned back to spend my long-awaited vacation surrounded by nature and clean air. Eventually, there were many more happenings in the second part of the month. I had a long-awaited haircut, met a few friends and new acquaintances. And unexpectedly at the end of the month, I was asked to move out from the apartment where I have been living for 5 years. It was quite stressful but I believe that it's for the best. It’s time for a new phase in many areas of my life.

The month has started with a sudden the disease that knocked me right at the beginning of the first weekend after I was swimming in the lake. Eventually, it was pretty great weeks with careful returning to normal. I was meeting with my friends, visiting doctors, taking long walks, and going to the office once in a while. Also, there was a long-awaited trip to Saint Petersburg where I had a really great time on my own, and later my friends joined me there. But it’s still strange to wear a mask every time I’m going down to the subway.

Observing a beautiful sunset

The first lesson with a teacher. During the last few years, I was studying English myself, and now it’s time for some improvements. So hopefully you will see fewer mistakes in my texts pretty soon :)

It was a wonderful and extremely saturated month. I’ve never had so many meetings and events before. Almost every day I was hanging out with friends, colleagues, acquaintances, and even the gang who I was friends with 8 years ago and haven’t seen them since then.

Also, this month had a few wonderful "first times" — yachting, slow dancing on an embankment, singing in a karaoke bar, listening to classical music at the Moscow Philharmonic, and visiting new awesome places. And the main first time was launching my first book The Wonders of Daily Drawing.

In general, I wasn’t productive in my free time as usual and I haven’t finished some of my personal tasks, but it was totally worth it.

At the beginning of September, I moved to Saint Petersburg for one month to change my environment and get new impressions. Eventually, it was just a perfect month that gave me new wonderful friends, acquaintances, places, experiences, thoughts, and a lot of drawings! I’m happy that I’d decided to make such a trip, and I will definitely repeat it in a while.

During these weeks I was actively searching for an apartment to rent. It wasn’t easy but at the end of the month, I found a good option with the help of Instagram. Also, October is always a season of birthdays for me because 4 close friends and relatives of mine were born in this month.

The biggest part of the month I was repairing my new rented apartment. The apartment had big potential but there were a lot of problems to fix and cleaning to do. Eventually, I took two weeks of vacation from work and was working on making my new home cozy. This experience was challenging but I’m glad that I had it because I learned many interesting things and now I have an awesome place to live in.

At the end of the month, I had two housewarmings and friends coming along helping me with difficult stuff which I couldn’t do by myself. There are still some little things to finish but it already looks and feels awesome. So now I’m enjoying it and getting used to living alone.

I had been worried that this month will be difficult but eventually, it turned out to be not so bad. I organised a few more housewarming parties with my friends and finished all the work I supposed to finish by the end of the year. Every December, our team in Tilda works on this big project that summarizes all the good stuff that the service made during a year. It's always been quite a stressful period but, this year, we have become bigger and more experienced, and eventually, we managed to do all the work on time. A couple of days before the New Year I got sick and spent New Year’s Eve alone at home.
