wanderer

I've been doing a lot of aimless wandering lately. The French call it 'flâner', what a beautiful activity! I love alleyways, and the freedom of turning corners just to see where they lead to. I love old, run-down buildings. Especially deserted houses, it makes me wonder how many people have lived through them, if they're still alive, why the house is still there and deserted, and what it would be like to spend a few days in there.



The other day I was awake at dawn and went for a walk around taking snaps of a bright red sky. It was gorgeous, and luckily the weather really isn't too freezing to take a walk around at 7am. The next few days are forecast for 16 degrees :)



A fantastic gift from some family friends has been a new mobile phone, a Nokia C5-00, from which I can connect to the internet and Skype. Still figuring out what to do with all these applications, but it is incredibly convenient!

I went out with a friend for an aperitif the other day and now she's organising a get-together with my old school friends. There are still a few family friends to visit before I head to Milan on Thursday - this is just for a couple of days to drop some of my stuff off, meet my house mate, pop into the Australian Consulate, sign up for a couple of uni things :)
