La Nébuleuse Vie de José Miranda @ Theatre Aleph - Ivry-sur-Seine


In the mighty city of Ivry-sur-seine, a stone throw from the small village of Paris, is the event of 2011 - before some of you get excited, it is not the royal wedding between William & Kate - but the return at the Théâtre Aleph of The Nébuleuse Vie de José Miranda. The play is in French - I say this but i do not think any play I have seen at the Aleph has been soley in French. A lot of the time it is a fusion of French and Spanish, with English sometime thrown in.

Why I am advertising this play. Have I taking sponsorship? a commission? Advertising? Well No.

Simply. A friend is in it...

Well not just for that reason. A lot of you will know who Anai is. And for the 8 years I lived in the mighty city of Bagnolet - a pebble throw away from the small village of Paris - I have been to many plays at the theatre - they have always been chaotic, from the Marx Brother school of comedy - always fun. And there is a bar.

So come over to Ivry-sur-seine - not suprisingly by the Seine - for a night at the opera...

The Return!!!! Or how I have taken so long to post again since the last post



Uhmm it has been a while since I last posted. I think I left you all in Singapore in May!!!!!!

Obviously I am no longer in Singapore. Well I have been back in Europe Since he beginning of May.

What have done since then? Does it matter? Does anybody want to read about it?

Who cares!!! I will be writing - still with a lot of spelling mistakes - about the time from Singapore to now. Obviously I am in Paris enjoying yet again those fine pain aux raisins and great coffee at Le Starbucks. I now job hunting in this fair city of a thousand boulangeries.

What I am planning to bore you with? well WWOOFing in Italy, house sitting in Guildford, a rollerblade marathon in Goodwood. Snow in Edinburgh and cooking and eating in Stockport.

Well those are the promises I will try not break - uhmm, I hear the single reader doubting tone. Deserved I know but second or third or is it fourth chance must be given.

To the lone reader, I shall return...

Singapore! And the Reading, Eating, Walking & Photographing goes on...

Posts are like Buses. You wait for months for one and then 2 come along at the same time - ok a day apart but you get the comparison.

Did somebody mention coffee????

Singapore! Reading, Eating, Walking & Photographing - The way back to Europe

Firstly, Yes it is a post. You all thought that I have given up updating. Well honestly yes. Why? Well I have been in silent meditation off and on for past 5 months at The Innlet in Golden Bay. When I say silent, I mean of course silent on the blog. A few people would dispute that I remained silent for all those months such as...

I had always planned to update the blog at some point with the time I spent in NZ. I have plenty of photos but not much to say. Did I really become silent? Maybe...

Now, down to business

After 11 months and I day, i am flying back to Europe. However, how could I not stop in South East Asia. This time Singapore.

And it good to be back. How i have missed you - I think this is an ans
wer to the lack of posts in NZ, I always had more to say about Asia - I was expecting more concrete than Hong Kong. But as in pre conception of Hong Kong, those of Singapore changed too. It is also the first time that I am in Siuth East Asia in Spring. Singapore was already humid at 7am when I landed...

What do I do in Singapore. Well, I eat, read, walk and photograph. I should say that I eat all day. How can you not . The whole place is made to eat....

I commented that Hong Kong was a fusion of cultures. Well Singapore is truly a fusion of culture.

Now back tot eh photographs. i will try and update the blog again with a selection of photos of the past 5 months in NZ.
