Sorry I’ve been really busy to blog but here are some of photos of my life in Amsterdam.

I caught a terrible cold and was down for nearly a week and a half! Then London was a beautiful rendezvous… dreamlike and extremely nostalgic.
There’s a lot of good research and opportunities but now I need to do a lot of writing, reading, green juicing and running!

Hello, Amsterdam

I’m so in love with this city.

Its gets more beautiful with each passing day.

I’m sorry I havent had time to post regularly. Everyday is nice and gezellig and the art, architecture & design I see here are amazing. I think the research opportunities here are great and I should definitely try to do more.

I’m looking forward to some sun, though!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!
I had a good catchup reading everyone’s blogs, reflections/ thoughts for the new year.

I used to be fanatical about making New Year resolutions. But I cheated because they were ones I was most likely to achieve. In hindsight, it was probably ego-boosting to say that I did stick to them and achieved stuff ;)

In 2009…
… I gave Cancer the middle finger
… I became closer to my dad after being absent for so many years
… I reconnected with my best mate and look forward to many half more decades together
… I finally was able to leave my miserable job situation for a dream job

in 2010…
… I’d like to continue my commitment to health and wellness; keeping up with a high raw vegan diet and training for a sprint
… I’d like to travel to at least 5 different countries alone or with good friends in tow
… I’d like to get my work published

Happy Xmas in Lomo

Hi everyone,

Thanks for emailing me re: the new URL location for the blog.
I’ve been too busy prepping for my travels, some new projects, my NEW job(!!) so I think this should do for now.

I’ll be away and look forward to an exciting year working on some very interesting projects, lots of travelling and a big improvement on the health and fitness front!

p.s. Dont forget to eat your greens!
