trace elements: December 2005
http://tracelements.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, 17 December 2005. Up, up and away. Guard dog" is actually the name of the security company who guard the place where I live - I'm not being rude. Sohi (above) is one of the security guards at the place i've been housesitting; he doesn’t work for the firm, he's private. The bow was fixed by last night (look; it's a big 'un), and so he put on the uniform and proudly posed for a few shots. Thursday, 15 December 2005. Tuesday, 13 December 2005. Blips drips and strips. 8220;I would hide in a very da...

trace elements: June 2006
http://tracelements.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 20 June 2006. Getting excited about this Central Province village trip. We are going to have an excellent time! And both are currently building us pitpit t oilets. Yet saying that: today at work I felt that familiar twinge you get when you leave a place you have known, where you are known, where you have made a home and friends. I need to travel, I'm not good when everything's stable and the same - but it's not easy, dragging yourself out again into the unknown. Sunday, 18 June 2006. So anyway &...

Monday, 16 October 2006. The more things change, the more they remain the same. Chaos and looting: as reported by James Kila in today's National (http:/ www.thenational.com.pg/101606/nation2.htm).

trace elements: Caves in Laos
http://tracelements.blogspot.com/2008/05/caves-in-laos.html
Tuesday, 27 May 2008. Nice All the buddha statues were guarded by a few local people. We looked around, and sat down, and an elderly man came to each of us, recited chants over our right hands and before tying plaited orange string around the wrist. Although we couldn't understand what was said, it was a peaceful gesture that meant something to the people doing it, and that was enough. Sounds amazing Marie.something special to remember. I just came across your blog. Great stuff! Thank you for your time!

trace elements: tales from cambodia
http://tracelements.blogspot.com/2008/04/tales-from-cambodia.html
Tuesday, 29 April 2008. The weather was cloudy so there was no big sunset, more a gradual change in light. But it was a special place to be. We arrived in Cambodia by boat from Vietnam, travelling up the Mekong river to Phnom Phen and staying there for a few days. Cambodia itself has been interesting to visit, often sad. We have learnt a lot about the recent past – the civil war and then the terrible years under the Khmer Rouge and Pol Pot until the invasion by the Vietnamese. From Adelaide, Australia - ...

trace elements: February 2006
http://tracelements.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html
Monday, 27 February 2006. Of mice and men. At this morning’s staff meeting, Jack related an incident that occurred last Friday night. There was a bit of a hullabaloo out on the street; a crowd of people were chasing a man. The man leapt over Jack’s fence, round the house and towards the back. The back fence is too high to leap over, so the man had trapped himself. Conch shell from buka. Or is it that they are no longer concerned with hiding these anxieties? Have the demands of ego withdrawn a little more?

trace elements: dreams from saigon
http://tracelements.blogspot.com/2008/04/dreams-from-saigon.html
Sunday, 13 April 2008. Back to Asia, and back to blogging. This time from Saigon / Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Only landed on Thursday night so I still feel alert to so many differences here, and ignorant of the city's own routine. We've also visited a few museums, local markets and tried some local dishes. It's so exciting and invigorating to be in Asia again; I'm loving it. Sounds great - remember that food photos and reviews are greatly appreciated! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
