Takze babicka Montse mela 82 roku, no a mela 14 deti, takze si dokazete predstavit jak asi vypadala takova mexicka oslava!!! Proste se vsichni sesli (ne uplne vsichni, ale vetsina) proste spousta lidi a slavili. no a jako jedina bila jsem tam byla trochu jako atrakce. Ale tos zatancila jsem si moooooc dobre :-)

You could have read before who I live with. Now I' ve got for you some news and pictures from my Mexican family. Montse's grandmother celebrated her 82nd birthday. She has 14 children!!! just imagine how big the family is!!! and we had birthday party On Sunday. Almost all the family was united to celebrate. I was the only white person there - big attraction!!! But I really enjoyed it and I was dancing a lot (as you can see below)



Tady jsem s pani Jose a Montse. S nimi momentalne bydlim. Mexicani jsou fakt obecne mensi:-)
Here I' m with Mrs. Jose and Montse. I've lived with them since my arrival. As you can see the Mexicans are generally smaller:-)

mexicka svatba / Mexican wedding

Tak jsem jako cizinec byla pozvana na svatbu:-) Tos abych videla jak to tu chodi a mohla vam to taky povykladat!!!

Tak bylo to jako v pohadce. Svatba se konala na jednom miste za mestem - neco jako takovy maly zamecek s obrovskou travnatou plochou a se stromy a konmi. Bylo to vecer, takze fakt paradni atmosfera.

Svatby v Mexiku jsou fakt hoooodne velke, tady na te bylo asi 300 pozvanych lidi (a ja mezi nimi). Meli jsme jidlo asi o 4 chodech a me to teda mooooc chutnalo. Nevesta taky hazela kytici (ne nebojte, nesnazila jsem se ji chytit) Zenich zpiva v kapele a tak s nevestou zpivali i na sve svatbe. Taky se prevlikli do nejakych kostymu, pry slavna mexicka skupina z 80. let, a hrali a zpivali a tancili o 106. Oni jsou vubec mexicani uzasni, jak se dokazi bavit.

Jeden zvyk za vsechny dalsi: Nevestu a zenicha drzeli nad vsemi ostatnimi a zenich drzel neveste zavoj, takze se vytvorila jakasi brana. No a nejprve tancili vsechny zenske a probihaly branou a pak zase chlapi.
No a dalsi uvidite na fotkach.



Well, as s foreigner I was invited to a Mexican wedding. It means that I have seen it all and now I can share my experience with you!!! :-)

I was like in a faire tale. The wedding was held in a place prepared for such kind of events. There was something like a small chateau with a big grass area and some horses,.... Everything started at 8 p.m. it was night and the athmosphere was really great.

Weddings in Mexico are really big events. This time there were 300 invited (me too:-). We had dinner composed of 4 parts and I really enjoyed it!!! The bride also threw the bunch of flowers (hey don' t worry, I even didn't try to catch it). The groom used to sing in a music group. That' s why they were singing with his wife also during the wedding. They also put on kind of costums (said to be very famous Mexican group from 80s) and the were singing, dancing and playing......You know, I really like the Mexican way of having party!!! It' s cool and people of all generations just have party all together!!!

One habit for all the others (I'm not able to write everything): the groom and the bride were taken by the others and they kept them separately. The groom had to held the veil and like this they created a small port. Then all the women were dancing and passing the gate and after all the men :-)
Enjoy the pictures!!!

Jak mi nebylo dobre:-) When I wasn't fine:-)

Tak hned na zacatku musim rict, ze jsem v poradku a uz mi nic neni:-) Takze se vubec nebojte!!! Ale minuly tyden mi fakt nebylo dobre.... Nakonec vlastne ani nevim, co mi bylo. Ale byla jsem hrozne unavena, bolelo me cely telo a furt se mi chtelo spat. no strasili me, ze mam dengue a me uz pri vysloveni tohoto slova stoupala teplota. ale dobre, tu je to normalni, a zrovna ted je v okoli spousta lidi, kteri maji dengue. no proste se to musi vylezet. ja nakonec dengue nemela, spis to rpy bylo neco infekcniho. no byla jsem tu uz i u doktora. jsou to takove male komurky, kde zaplatite za prohlidku a pak na krevni testy a dalsi veci stejne musite jinde a znovu platit. no a moje pojisteni je mi spis na prd nez na neco. protoze stejne mi tu ty moje papiry nevyplni anglicky:-( Takze sem prezila a uz jsem zase v pohode. NO a starali se o me jako o vlastni:-) DIIIKY.

Well I have to say that now I' m quite OK!!! I have no problem!!! You don' t need to worry about me. But it wasn't like this las week I really wasnt fine.... finally I don' t know what was wrong with me and I dont want to know it anymore:-). I was very tired, all my body hurt and I wanted to sleep all the time. they scared me that it was dengue fever......and even by saying this word my temperature increased..... I had the fever all the time and it was increasing and decreasing and increasing and decreasing......But here it is quite normal to have the dengue fever and now in this period there are many people just having it. Just you have to stay in bed and wait - no other possibility:-( But I didn' t have dengue fever I went to a doctor and they made me some blood tests and everything was negative. well I had more something from the meal here as another doctor told me. finally I survived!!!

Moje mexicka rodina / my mexican family

Neco o rodine, ve ktere bydlim:-) no, muzu vam rict, ze se u nich citim jako doma. Maji maly domecek - dohromady asi tak velky jako nas byt v Olomouci, ale ma prizemi a prvni patro. Se mnou v nem bydlime 4. jooo a malem bych zapomnela, mame taky psa, jmenuje se Puccini, nee neni to podle toho skladatele, ale podle nejake komiksove postavicky, kterou zase neznam ja. no vodu z kohoutku nepijem, kupuji se velke 18litrove barely. Televizi mame, ale moc se na ni nedivam. Domecky jsou male a tesne u sebe, takze je vsechno slyset a sousedi se dobre znaji, takze uz na me pokrikuji i deti ze sousedstvi:-)

a s kym teda bydlim?
Dona Jose - maminka od rodiny, Montse a Pancho - dva sourozenci, kteri me berou naprosto fpoho a rozumime si. Dona Jose uz nepracuje, je doma a stara se o domacnost. Jejich tatinek pracuje, momentalne uz paty rok v USA. V Mexiku uz nesehnal praci. Kazdy tyden v nedeli vola domu, uz jsem s nim taky jednou mluvila. Proc doprcic nekdo musi zit trvale vzdalen od rodiny jenom kvuli penezum? Neco je tady spatne.............:-(

Montse studuje turismus a Pancho nejake inzenyrstvi. Ten jejich system je trochu jiny. Montse je na soukrome skole a ma vyuku kazde odpoledne od 2 do 9 v kuse. Hodiny maji povinne a kdyz neprijdou, tak se nejdriv musi predem dovolit a musi nosit unifromu. Tos kazdy at si mysli co chce. Nekdy jim taky reknou, ze maji prijit v sukni, tos to uz se mi zda opravdu prehnane. no a kdyz neprijdou v sukni, tak je pry nemusi pustit do skoly...Pancho to ma vic v klidu, je na statni skole, takze uniformu nosit nemusi a ma vyucovani dopoledne, ale taky dlouho.

Fotky prijdou taky!!!!

Something about the family I live with:-) well I have to say that I feel very well with them. They have got a small house (it could be as big as our flat in Olomouc) but i has a ground floor and first floor. With me we are 4 all together. Heyyyy I' ve almost forgotten the dog. His name is Puccini, it' s small and nice. We are not allowed to drink the tapped watter. It' s bought in a big barrels of 18 liters. We have a TV but I dont watch it very often. All the houses are very small and close to each other and that' s why everything could be heard and all the neighbourghs know each other very well. Also the kids from neighbourghood know me and shout on me all the time:-)

well, who do I live with?
dona Jose - mother of the family, Montse y Pancho - brother and sister and I get along with them very well. Dona Jose doesnt work now, she takes care of the household. Their father hase been working for 5 years in USA. There was no possibility to find work for him in Mexico. All the Sundays he calls home, once I spoke to him also:-) shit, why there are people who has to live really faraway from his/her family just because of earning money? There is something wrong.............:-(

Montse has been studying tourism and Pancho kind of ingeneering. But the system here is a bit different and I has been trying to understand it. Montse studies at a private University of
Gulf of Mexico. she has the classes each afternoon from 2 to 9 p.m. All the classes are obligatory and if they don't come they have to apologize in advance and they have to put on a uniform. Sometimes they are also said to wear a skirt............and if they dont wear it they ar not allowed to enter the school............ well it' s not like this at all universities. For example Pancho studies at a public school and they dont have to put on uniform. He has his classes in the morning but also for a log time.

Zivot v Cordobe / Life in Cordoba

Takže ještě jsem vám neřekla, že tu budu až do konce ledna. Teda někdo to ví a někdo ne. No a pak se musím vrátit, že?

Tak něco k životu v Cordobě.... to město je asi tak veliký jako Olomouc, ale je úžasně zelený a všude kolem jsou hory a sopkaaaaa!!!! Snad tam vylezu....Bydlim, kousek z centra ve čtvrti, která se jmenuje San Román. Už jsem se naučila i cestovat místním autobusem a jezdím za studentskou cenu J a všem tu připadám mnohem mladší........... (no, že bych tu zůstala??????????)

Ulice v centru města nemají jména, ale jenom čísla a jsou na sebe téměř kolmé, takže se všichni podle toho orientují – třeba autobus odjiždí rohu třídy 1 a ulice 9,..... no a to číslování ulic taky stojí za zmínku – od hlavního náměstí jdou jedním směrem liché třídy a ulice a druhým směrem sudé třídy a ulice........... ale už to mám v malíčku :-)
Autobus vám zastaví kde chcete, stačí jen mávnout a taky vás nechá vystoupit kde chcete, zase stačí jen říct a jízdní řády neexistují, ale autobusy jezdí často.


Well I havent told you that I will stay here in Mexico till the end of January. Maybe some of you know but the others dont. Then I have to go back or haven´t I?

Some notes from my life in Cordoba. The city is as big as my lovely Olomouc, everything is green here and there are mountains all around and one volcanooooo as you could see in other part of this blog. I hope to climb it!!!!............... I dont live in the city center but in the district called San Román – like 15 minutes by bus from the center. I´ve learnt how to use local public transport and I buy all the time the student tickets J All the people think here that I´m more younger than in the reality............(just thinking about staying in Mexicooooo??????????)

The streets dont have any names, only numbers and they are perpendicular. Good guide to orientate myself. Bus stops almost everywhere you need it´s enough to make a sign. And there are no timetables, but the bus circulation is really very frequent.

PARA MIS LLEIDATANOS!!! :-)
