The climb


The climb – this is me walking up the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. 284 steps up a steep winding staircase. I was puffed when I got to the top, but it was well worth it.

I have a very busy few weeks ahead of me. What with all the everyday tasks at work, coupled with lots of projects, and extra-curricular activities such as the Unconference, and writing a paper with Kathryn (for LIANZA), plus Dutch language classes, and keeping myself sane and happy with family events, it’s going to be a bit mad!


Bollywood in Uithuizen

I’m hoping I manage to get through it all with as much enjoyment as though I was capering through a Dutch country lane – as per the picture above. M took that picture of me pretending to be a Bollywood star. We were enjoying a walk one morning in rural Groningen. It was beautiful and green, and the lane was actually full of slugs. I don’t know if I squashed any…

and the title of your bollywood movie is “Capering with slugs”.

Has a nice ring to it: Dancing with wolves-esque – Capering with slugs sounds… realistic! 🙂
