Project:Venice: April 2008

http://projektvenice.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html

Monday, 7 April 2008. Nice things in Belgium. Hi everyone, just a few notes from here in Ghent/Gent/Gand about what I'm up to and what I've seen. Perhaps Australia would have a larger economy if it was bilingual? Let's move on to nicer things:. 1) Door handles - I've spotted quite a few really cool door handles just up and down the street that I'm staying on. Venice has interesting door handles and doors in general but these ones here in Gent are funky. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Nice things in Belgium.

Project:Venice: Back to Perth

http://projektvenice.blogspot.com/2009/01/back-to-perth.html

Thursday, 29 January 2009. I'm back to Perth on Monday - in the meantime there's heaps to do at uni, in the lab, measurements, cleaning, etc. I'm looking forward to visiting, catching up with family and friends and maybe even going for a climb or two. Tomorrow night is Ali's gig, which will be very exciting too - hope to have a photo or two up sometime.from Oz? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Project:Venice: January 2008

http://projektvenice.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html

Wednesday, 23 January 2008. Paul and I have decided that a great analogy for my experience here so far is, well, starting your life all over again. OK. Probably a bit of an obvious analogy but let me take you through it. And then all of sudden, you are getting ushered out! All you want to do is sleep and eat at strange times of the day whilst your dependent other is intent on introducing you to everything and everyone. For the first week, all you can do is make noises - not even intelligible words, and y...

Project:Venice: July 2008

http://projektvenice.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html

Tuesday, 22 July 2008. The weather here in Venice seems to be settling down a little after crazy days of bright sunshine interrupted by clouds and the odd spot of hail. It's no longer stiflingly hot and humid and there seems to be a bit of moderation in the winds, so it's still nice to eat out on the fondamenta in the evenings but you don't feel compelled to drink litres of water in the process just to stay hydrated. Thursday, 10 July 2008. Violin, guitar etc. and a French singer. They also creat...And b...

Project:Venice: August 2008

http://projektvenice.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html

Sunday, 31 August 2008. Review: "Burn after Reading" by Joel and Ethan Coen. There is one more external narrative to the film, which I won't go into. You'll find out about it when you see it - and enjoy it. Venice film fest part 1. Why is it so difficult to show films in english, or with english subtitles, in a city so given over to tourism as Venice? Why is the palazzo del cinema so criminally underused as to be left empty for 50 weeks of the year, when on Thursday night over 700 people turned up to Cam...

Project:Venice: March 2008

http://projektvenice.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html

Saturday, 29 March 2008. First experiences of Belgium - Bemusement at the labelling of a person on the airport concourse in front of me: he was wearing a 'Stella Artois' jacket and a Tintin backpack; Mirth at the idea that there's a Belgian Beer Cafe even in Brussels airport, Excitement at the abundance of chocolatiers, Concern when trying to understand the train timetables. Of muesli, and even some belgian beer (only leffes, chimay, grimbergen, kwak, some lambics, nothing too exotic). Sorry about the ra...

Project:Venice: May 2008

http://projektvenice.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html

Sunday, 25 May 2008. Looking for what's underneath. Sorry it's been so long between posts. As most of you know, I ducked back to Australia for the Superengine tour and so have spent the last month here just getting settled again! Anyway, it was great to see so many of you when I was back and awesome to find out that people actually read the blog! I know that brevity is not my strongest point so it was nice to know that people are reading it, and (to my amazement) enjoying the waffle! In Milan we had the ...

Project:Venice: December 2008

http://projektvenice.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html

Sunday, 14 December 2008. Long time between posts. Been to Naples/Pompeii/Amalfi coast and the edge of reason in the meanwhile. Aqua alta, flooding in Venice and conference madness all has happened in the last two months. Now we're gearing up for a christmas trip to Berlin and NYE in CZ. Should be grouse. Also thinking Perth in Feb (am I still mad? Photos on the intermaweb-thingo. Paul. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.
