As I sit here contemplating the fact that one hour of walking around the lake this morning without sunscreen turned me into a human candy cane (bright pink – blindingly white – bright pink – blindingly white), and as I distract myself from the prickly burningness by eating ice cream made from frozen bananas, I [...]

As you may have noticed, I don’t do a lot of Canberra restaurant reviewing on this blog. When I do decide to showcase the gustatory delights that our local chefs have to offer, it’s usually because I’ve dined somewhere at the fancypants end of the restaurant scale for family birthdays or anniversaries. And I usually [...]

Hey guys! Hey! Over here! *jumps up and down and waves* Do you remember how, this time last year, I went travelling for four months around North America and Europe? And how I took you on little tours of each place I visited via my “Glimpses of…” series? Well, guess what? Almost a year later, [...]

You may not know this, but Canberra is a place of fairytales. Don’t believe me? Fine. I’ll show you. Once upon a time… … there was (and is) a city where lamingtons take the form of macarons, and young ladies know precisely how to behave to attract a handsome Prince. In this city, when young heroes [...]

When I originally started my “Glimpses of…” series, I intended for its posts to be (only) of places I visited overseas. In short, places that are unfamiliar to me. But then I arrived home in Canberra, and realised that many of you reading this blog don’t, in fact, live in Canberra. (And why not, I ask [...]

After months of sporadic postings about my adventures in Florence/Firenze, I have finally come to the end. But fear not, beloved readers! I can probably eke another few travel posts out of my beyond-Florence day trips. And then I’ll simply have to quit the PhD and go travelling again to procure more blog-fodder. Right? Okay, okay, so [...]

Talk about putting your best [building] face forward. Also, sometimes when I look at this photo with my head tilted to one side, the building reminds me of a train. Is that crazy-talk? I originally took this photo (and several other paparazzi-esque shots like it) because I fell in love with that cuddly-looking pink-tongued fluffy dog of wonderment. [...]

I’m a little bit loving the fact that I’ve been back in Australia for over two months, yet am still eking out travel posts. Let’s hear it for digital cameras and their capacity to take endless amounts of photos! (Even if said photos are making my computer teeter on the edge of collapse. I really should do [...]

Sometimes it feels wrong to be posting about Florence without simultaneously talking about gelato. Gelato was an integral part of my Italian experience, as most days involved frozen delightfulness in one form or another. My plan for the future is to remember posts such as this one recounting gelato highlights whenever I find myself journeying back to Florence [...]
