ALL THIS STUFF…

”As a zoo guide I have to keep a lot of things with me every day.” //
Maps (there’s always someone who doesn’t have one), a microphone and a speaker, radiophone, first aid stuff, work phone, ice cream coupons, my own phone, zoo’s pins, a water bottle, a pen, Swiss Army Knife, canvas bag, snacks, key card, staff card, three sets of keys. //
”Luckily they gave me this extra pocket…”

”How am I going to get to the airport?” ”I’ll take you, of course. How else?” //
”You could just put me in bus.” ”Yes, there are about six every day…” //
”And them back home…” The end.

TO EUROPE! PART 11: FAMILIAR FEELINGS
Gaiverruksia210_n
Location: Graz, Austria. I met my little brother after quite some time. Yes, I have a little brother too. //
”…when people ask, ’where in Austria are you from?’…” //
”…and I say that I’m actually from Ireland. And that I spend quite a lot of my childhood in France.” //
”And those people look at me like a million dollar bill. Like this.” //
”It probably doesn’t help if you tell them that you have Finnish siblings.” //
”Not a bit. Those who had followed thus far always get lost at that point.” //
”I should just write the whole thing down and give printed copies to all the new people I meet!” ”Great idea!” //
”But trust me, bro, I know how you feel.”

Location: Bielefeld, Germany. ”It’s my father’s birthday, and he’d like to celebrate by spending a day in the zoo with the family.” //
”I hope you don’t mind coming along?” ”I hope you don’t mind me telling you interesting animal facts all the time?” //
”These people will come: Goldfish… my father and mother… my big sister… her husband… and their two children.” //
On the way to Münster. //
”Coffee?” ”More juice?” ”Yes please.” ”Could I have a spoon, please?” ”Strawberries?” ”This is the most chaotic and the most fun breakfast I’ve ever had.” //
”I’ve been accepted into the family.”

”He hee!” ”Don’t run away from me, my friend’s sister’s toddler!” //
”Oooh! They have a secretary bird!” //
”Did you know that octopuses have three hearts?” ”They do?” //
”Bye bye, Whale and Goldfish!”
