Pen´s Portable Closet: Holocaust Tourism: Auschwitz and Phnom Penh
http://portablecloset.blogspot.com/2011/11/holocaust-tourism-auschwitz-and-phnom.html
Pen´s Portable Closet. Saturday, 19 November 2011. Holocaust Tourism: Auschwitz and Phnom Penh. As luck, or fate, or low-cost airline schedules would have it, I ended up in Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia, about three weeks after I visited Auschwitz near Krakow in Poland. To quickly summarise 20th Century history:. Auschwitz is the site of the largest concentration camp used as part of the Nazi holocaust of about six million people in Europe in the 1930s and 1940s. Krakow has a castle, a salt mine (n...

Pen´s Portable Closet: A Bookworm in Budapest
http://portablecloset.blogspot.com/2009/02/bookworm-in-budapest.html
Pen´s Portable Closet. Thursday, 12 February 2009. A Bookworm in Budapest. Oh my golly the Bratislava entry was obscenely long. Which is ironic, since I have been applying for web content coordinator roles all week with sentences like, “I understand the importance of using as few words as possible when writing for the web”. Which is a really badly constructed sentence, come to think, and probably why I didn’t get asked for an interview. Secondly, because Hungarian is so linguistically obscure, I thought ...

My thoughts transmitted to the interwebs. People with interesting things to say. Sharp, funny and pokes a big stick at the shambles of Australian journalism. Meeting in the aisle. The lovely lyrical Lyrian’s thoughts on development and the world around her, which is often not so pretty. You can call me lady pants. She likes to wear pants, swear and is crap at origami. Thinking about my kink. A kinky feminist who loves shoes, hates patriarchy and has opinions about most things. The Body Shop Activist.

Pen´s Portable Closet. Thursday, 26 February 2009. Munich – A German Tale (with a smattering of Greek). I went to Munich to visit an old friend from school. I’m going to go with a pseudonym, and call her… Nike. 8230; mostly because she probably doesn’t want her business in my blog. And because I’m staring directly at my sneakers right this minute. Plus, I just finished reading The Secret History. Which is all about cover-ups and Greeks, so it seems appropriate. Also, I just like the word pseudonym. Invol...

Pen´s Portable Closet. Sunday, 28 September 2008. Week 5: When My Baby Smiles at Me I Go to.Oxford. No, I haven't suspended my campaign (bit of political humour there for you.GEDDIT? To bore you all useless with my burblings. This entry is probably a bit baguer than usual, though.I'm at the point now where I can't believe I was ever actually in South America, so quickly does a new environment feel like forever to me. I'm easy like Sunday morning when it comes to new locales. The Terrible Weather in Rio.

http://portablecloset.blogspot.com/2011/01/well-that-was-different-bangladesh.html
Pen´s Portable Closet. Sunday, 23 January 2011. Well, that was different: Bangladesh. I went to Bangladesh in July 2009 to visit my friend Lyrian. Who spent a year there as an Australian Youth Ambassador for Development. I was there at the same time as Sally,. Lyrian’s best friend and a good friend of mine, too. But I still wanted to write about my trip to Bangladesh. Firstly, because, well, really, I went to Bangladesh and I want some travel-blogger-credibility for it, thank you very much. So, rather th...

Pen´s Portable Closet. Monday, 9 February 2009. Bratislava, Slovakia: Giggle City. Bratislava is a funny place. Both funny-strange and funny-haha. According to the Lonely Planet/Rough Guide, “You meet all kinds of people when you stay in hostels.”. And the next day, I got out and had a look at Bratislava, and felt much better and more cheerful. Plus, I bought a massive packet of paracetamol for 40 Euro cents, and of there’s one thing that makes me happy, its cheap drugs. 8220;Australia. That is where...
