Celebrating New Year's Eve in Tallinn'!
From Nami-nami, 4 month ago Similar articles
This post is mainly for those food-oriented people in Tallinn who haven't yet decided where to celebrate New Year's Eve this year. Here are some alternatives worth considering - not paid ads, mind you, but events that some of my favourite establishments are throwing that I'd be happy to attend if I wouldn't be celebrating the New Year's Eve at home with my lovely K., our two adorable kids and some great friends. What are your plans - in Tallinn or elsewhere - for the New Year's...

Spring weather on the island
From Expat Travels, Today, Similar articles
Spring has finally arrived in Victoria. This was long awaited since last year the weather wasn't all that warm and with my luck I had that time off to enjoy the cold weather. Now that spring is in full gear, we are enjoying our evenings outside playing at the park or exploring outside. Cammie seems to enjoy being outside from the second she wakes up to the second she goes to sleep. She usually points to the door or insists on sitting there until we get her outside. Of...
Happy 40th, my love

Happy birthday to the kangaroo! Today is the actual day but his birthday feels longer than an Indian wedding twice over. He has had celebrations in New York, Wiesbaden, Singapore (twice: once with friends and once with my folks as shown in the photos above), Sydney (will post this soon), tonight with Mrs Kangaroo who flew in from Sydney this morning, and the grand finale this Saturday with our Tokyo friends. I think he actually likes being 40…since he is celebrating it so many...
Celebrating the season

Itching for a little adventure and knowing I was too, Callista suggested we return to a nearby cloud forest. Yesterday was the perfect day for the adventure about 30 miles from home. We were able to enjoy all Bosque Nuboso El Cocora had to offer and return home before the...
Catching up: parties, applications, surgeries
From Mama(e) in Translation, Yesterday, Similar articles
Today is effectively the very first day of my "summer vacation 2012" - Â 3 months of not much work & no paycheck. I didn't have a paycheck for 5 years before this, but somehow now that I'm back to the "workforce" (though still working in the margins), it does bother me a lot not to have a salary in the next months. Sigh...Next year I will have it for at least a month when I teach for the study abroad in Brazil which reminds me that I do have to work this summer planning that. And I...
Rainy season 2012 has arrived
From A New Life In Costa Rica, 2 days ago, Similar articles
The powers that be have announce the official start of the 2012 rainy season in Costa Rica. They say the rains yesterday marked the start of the season. It was a long dry season for us this year with hardly any measurable rain until April when we got rain by...
Canadian Small Towns - Gananoque
From Correr Es Mi Destino, 3 days ago, Similar articles
Even though I'm very much a city person and can't imagine living in a place with a population of less than 500,000, I'm in love with Canadian small towns. Over the year, we visit quite a lot of small towns, mostly in Ontario but also in the U.S. Some were just a stop on the road to or from somewhere, some were a getaway, but most of them were simply lovely. It's a cliché but the pace of life is different and people are friendlier than in the big cities. It's also refreshing to see fewer...

Why, hello there! Much has happened in the past year. I arrived home safely, as did my boxes. (Helpful hint: check Customs and quarantine websites for destination country before packing boxes.) I have also just submitted my thesis (I think; I’m not entirely sure, but it’s ready to be submitted if it hasn’t been), so we are now in the final stages (which, as already foreshadowed by my confusion earlier in this sentence, will probably take some time to battle through). And...
I want to be just like my mom
From Tales of a Texpatriate, 4 days ago, Similar articles
Today is Mother's Day in the US. I won't go into my feelings on why or why not one day a year is even enough to tell someone like a mother thank you, or why in general days like this drive me nuts because it's so manufactured and false, and that I think if you love someone you should show them that love EVERYDAY, and if you want to send them a gift just SEND IT and don't wait for a retail-sanctioned holiday. Ok, well I kind of did go into my feelings on that, whatever, I'll stop. (gets off...
