Today I would like to say a few words
about my new hobby- completing puzzles. It all started when I
spotted a 500-piece puzzle with a Taj Mahal picture on it. I decided
to buy it and I soon solved it. I experienced a great joy when I
placed the last piece on its place. Then I bought a 1000-piece
fluorescent puzzle with Eiffel Tower. It slightly glows in darkness. It took me a few days to solve it. Subsequently, I bought a 1500-piece puzzle depicting Montmartre
district in Paris and another one with Chenonceau castle. Next, I
glued it to plywood and hung it in my room. Now I feel as if I were
in France there. I always start by completing the frame, which is
the easiest part, then I sort the pieces according to their colour.
The sky is always the hardest thing to solve because a lot of pieces
have almost the same tone. I prefer puzzles with architectural
details. Landscapes and animals are also nice but I tend to choose
puzzles with great monuments. I also purchaised a puzzle with St.
Marc place in Venice. It's a great mind- stimulating activity which
makes you calm and serene. Although it sometimes required a lot of
patience and perseverance, the final effect is worth it.
