We’ve been going to the farmers markets three weeks in a row now. First Caulfied, then Boroondara and now Ballarat. You can’t keep me away from markets. Slow food is in my genes. Blog this!

Melbourne laneways are one of the most interesting, bizarre, exciting places to discover. You have to really hunt for these jewels – but like all things that are worth the trouble, they seldom disappoint. There are tours around the CBD for tourists and non-tourist alike (because we don’t always know what’s in our own backyard). [...]

One of the sights Mr. G and I were fortunate enough to visit while we were in Sweden was to Jukkasjärvi, Kiruna. Our main objective couldn’t be more obvious than to stay at the ICEHOTEL. It’s a childhood fantasy of mine to see this incredible monument of human imagination. Dreams frozen into ice. The train [...]

Boy, after three months worth of traveling, I’m finally sitting down at my favourite spot typing this post. The place I call home. There’s a sad layer of dust on my muffin tray. So now that I’m back, it’ll be lovely to whip up some cakes and spoil my friends again (they’re waving their empty [...]

Hello! Happy 2009 everybody! I hope you’re having a good time wherever you are. For a spectacular start to mine, I’m writing this in cold, cold Sweden. How’s that for a change? I’ve been stuffing myself with all things weird and wonderful. Okay, okay, maybe not that weird. So far, I’ve had Swedish Smörgåsbord which [...]

Give me a minute to wipe the dust off my keyboard. I think I see dust bunnies dancing around my blog. I’m sorry for not blogging for so long and thank you for being so patient with me. The last few months have been ‘alive’ for me. Things happening. Life running. Y’know… stuff. I’ve finally [...]

I love traveling. If it was a sport, I would be a Arnold Scha-whats-his-name. If it was a dish, I would get fat eating it. If it was a song, my throat would be sore singing it. Yes, I love to travel. But more than seeing different countries, smelling different degrees of air and getting [...]
