Martha and I have been quiet of late ‘cause we got school. Yup, we’re are in Poland learning how to be English teachers. That confuses some of the Poles I’ve met.
“You’re in Poland to learn how to teach English. Shouldn’t you have done that where you come from?”
School is tough. We teach two to three [...]

This just in folks: Martha behind the invisible axe. Yes, that’s right, Martha did a bit of air guitar in Oulu. Head on over to Pics for more. Dig.

A few days ago, I had a moment on the balcony of our flat in Kraków. Let’s call it a balcony moment. It was late evening and there was just enough sun getting through to create a red patch in the clouds ahead of me. Our building faces a courtyard formed together with two other [...]
