OK, so I thought I
would update you on what's been happening here in France instead of
stressing about my reams of homework. It's good, because it gives me
the illusion of doing something constructive. That is, I'm
communicating with all the lovely ... Read more >

I am writing from the
polished stone floor in a Sciences Po corridor. Today, the students
of this great institution don't know what to do with themselves. All
the libraries have been simultaneously closed for some reason, and
it's very wet and ... Read more >

Sunday afternoons in Paris for me are like little holidays. Friday and Saturday, although I have no classes, tend to be pretty busy, but Sundays are just lazy days here. Nothing is open apart from galleries and flea markets - it's like heaven. Today ... Read more >

While sitting today on the sunny but chilly balcony outside our living room, I started to reflect on the last month in Paris and how things have been going so far. Now that the initial excitement has worn off, a bit of homesickness has set in and ... Read more >

So it's been a while
since I updated. Last time I left off I was leaving Prague for
Berlin, then going to Luxembourg, Bruges and Amsterdam. I would be
lying if I said that I hadn't had time to update. On the contrary,
I've had plenty of spare ... Read more >

Well now. It has been a
while since I wrote, mainly because I've been busy Getting the Most
Out of Each Day. It's feel as though I'm short-changing myself if I
don't experience a city's
Culture during the day and its night-life
until ... Read more >

I have reached the point where I can't stand traipsing through yet another palace, learning about yet another building's founding date, or visiting yet another Greek and Roman antiquities wing. This is not to say that I'm sick of travelling, on the ... Read more >

Briefly, because we both have better things to do. Sofia was fun. Depressing because of the architecture and the poverty. Flying in over the top of it is so different to flying in over Vienna. The inner buildings are all grey concrete, bleak and utilitarian, ... Read more >

I've been a bit lax with keeping people informed of what I've been doing, and I'm sure that some of you are wondering whether or not I'm still alive. In fact, I have a very good reason for not having updated this blog (I couldn't be bothered) but I ... Read more >
