Trieste | Louise all'estero
https://louiseineurope.wordpress.com/2013/05/31/trieste
Misadventures on my year abroad. More year abroad blogs. A couple of weeks ago I ventured off into the furthest reaches of north-east Italy to Trieste. Where my maternal grandparents are from. They now live in Australia but I have one remaining relative there, who is my Nonno’s stepbrother’s ex-wife…so I guess a kind of great aunt? The train up took about 8 hours but for 25 I really wasn’t going to complain, you can barely get from Woking to Bristol for that price. Click to email (Opens in new window).

September | 2012 | a blonde in bordeaux
https://blondeinbordeaux.wordpress.com/2012/09
A blonde in bordeaux. Monthly Archives: September 2012. Timetables are no one’s friend. September 12, 2012. The French student who was on hand to ‘help’ us, forgot to add my name to two lectures, and made me wait in uni for 3 hours to make an amendment that only took 30 seconds in total, and I was thoroughly fed up by last night. Another admin highlight was collecting my student card. The photo was taken at uni, and I didn’t know how much to smile, hence:. Horrific. I have no lips. 😦. September 7, 2012.

The no-skill no-bullshit guide to: Artichokes | Louise all'estero
https://louiseineurope.wordpress.com/2013/05/13/the-no-skill-no-bullshit-guide-to-artichokes
Misadventures on my year abroad. More year abroad blogs. The no-skill no-bullshit guide to: Artichokes. Italians fucking love artichokes. I’m not entirely sure why this is, but having been served it a few times and liking it, I decided to hop on the bandwagon when they were on special at Tigre. The last time I was with my friend Jo she had a few questions about this mystery veg, such as ‘So how do you cook it? 8217; and ‘Where’s the edible bit? This is an artichoke. Chuck it on some kitchen paper upside ...

A blonde in bordeaux. Monthly Archives: November 2012. November 25, 2012. It’s been a long time since I last wrote something, so here’s what I’ve been up to lately (WARNING: I have no yoghurt anecdotes): Mumma and Papa Fowls came to visit me during my week off ( La vacances toussaint),. Yes, YES, I have only just discovered how to use the edit buttons on my camera. And that was it; my parents went and I was more than half way through my time here in France. And that was a month ago! Then one weekend, Bor...

A blonde in bordeaux. Monthly Archives: August 2012. Cramlington, tu vas me manquer. August 28, 2012. My last day in the UK has been spent listening to the Mulan soundtrack, watching like 6 episodes of Will and Grace, and throwing as many pairs of shoes as possible into a bag. What a mare. The end, however, is in sight…. Mme Jacques’ GCSE vocab would come in handy one day…) Anyway, hahahahaha it’s so fun having no idea where I’m going to live. I recommend this experience to all. Two Weeks To Go…. Alex in...

A blonde in bordeaux. Cramlington, tu vas me manquer. Timetables are no one’s friend. →. Un montagne russe des émotions. September 7, 2012. Well, I’ve been here for more than a week, actually. I’ve been meaning to write this for ages, but I just haven’t had the time. Or the mental capacity. The past 8 days have drained me…. Mum and I also went for a walk along the riverside, to Place de la Bourse, a really beautiful building which has a. Miroir d’eau,. What a day. Woke up. 1) Mum and I saw a hobo wearing...
