My expat journey
Port Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
visit friends
attended a data visualisation masterclass
Melbourne is the best! Especially out-of-the-way places like The 'Tan (Botanical Gardens) to walk all through and gaze at the amazing plants & trees, drop into the warhouse of Linen & Moore, Fitzroy, open to the public, for wonderful, wonderful linen, and hang out at Tree of Life Cafe & workshops/think-tanks - right near Flinders Station, inner city - fantastic coffee, gorgeous healthy food.
there was a lot of wind when our plane flew in, and for a few days - that's all... the rest was glorious! Thank you, Melbourne for a gorgeous time! peace, and love, old Susanne
Flic en Flac, Black River, Mauritius
The whole tourist thing... I love Mauritius!!! xx
drove up to experience Creole cuisine in the gorgeous hills, and to admire the countless fantastic views and countryside. Saw deer up there, too. I ventured in Port Louis markets, exotic!
The food!!! it is amazing.
That I could NOT go to the beach alone - after a few days of doing so. Because, even though I'm old and dress modestly, and went for a swim at different times, to different locations it seems there were groups of men that always turned up and hung around. So I felt uncomfortable. So I stopped going for my daily walk & swim and that reduced my great experience.

My wish is four-fold, inter-related: That all over the world people are kinder to each other and to all the wonder that surrounds us and keeps us safe here on this lovely earth - that everyone learns that competing - for anything, or everything, is ... Read More

Thanks, Barbara, for your valuable input here. I think I see what you mean.... to call for expressions of interest in performing first, and then to find the venue? The other point you raise is because there is generally a bit of a Q & ... Read More
