Apparently, I am "Up 366% in popularity this week"

Daily Outfit: To market, to market

Why hello there! I woke myself relatively early for a Sunday and headed down the road to explore my town's markets. We bought cheese, ham, radish, tomatoes, asparagus, aubergine, strawberries, and of course, fresh baguettes. It's a lovely sunny day and I'm finding it hard to keep myself from smiling.

Except for the fact that I may be developing a blister on my wrist from excessive computer usage; this is what happens when you jobsearch online, upload all your photos, keep in touch with friends, plan the next holiday, write your CV and "lettre de motivation"....

Oh hi! Seems I'm a cheeky little squirrel

Baguettes every day, cheese after your meal, wine at lunch... I could get very used to this.


And I just had the most delicious strawberry.

What the doctor ordered

Go through your pictures on facebook. Hilarious, ridiculous, good times with friends.

Oh!

Today I had a key cut to my Frenchy abode, got a French mobile, looked at the bathtub from hell, made my CV Frenchified so I can apply somewhere very special, smiled in the rain, ate an undercooked curry loaf and treated myself to strawberries bathed in the wine of Tuscan saints.

La vie est belle, chers amis!

Belated Bruges

We had a very nice daytrip tothe medieval town Bruges while staying in Ypres/Ieper

Spring has sprung in Europe and it is GLORIOUS!

And visited the chip museum...

Fascinating stuff

The cave where we sampled some Belgian fries with mayonnaise

There was a visit to the chocolate museum as well....

Live demonstration (with taste tests!)

And a cat, offering cheese, made entirely of chocolate

Op-shop Dreams

Lately I've been dreaming (literally) of amazing finds in op-shops and being very disappointed upon waking up.

Mi scusa for the absence in posting. I'm in Venice, but will be back in Paris late next week and should have some time to stop and think.

Amsterdam!

I know it's been a while between posts.... you won't believe where I've been and what I've been doing.

I spent 24 hours in Amsterdam and got into the cycling spirit............

I used my internal GPS to find the loveliest park and had myself a little picnic:

And rode past the Van Gogh Museum amongst cherry blossoms. It's Spring in Europe and it feels good.

After cycling past Anne Frank's house, I cruised through the old quarter peering in shop windows and spying on cats. I finally stopped for a drink.




A cheeky little beer to assist my jetlag

And then it was off to Belgium!

More updates soon, I've been on the road for 12 days now yet been through four different countries and played 10 times.

Transit

I'm safe and sound and well-established in Europe yet here are some photos from my voyage......

Sunset approaching KL

Despite not being a gin fan, I found this pretty. KL airport. My brain was imploding.

Greets from Belgium!

Daily outfit: Sequin Cat in Sydney

Meow kitties. I've been trying to stay healthy amongst a hectic touring and playing schedule in Sydney. Here's post 1 of recycling of outfits.

Saturday night!

Hanging out at the (closed) State Library. Before this photo took I saw a giant rat, and after, a homeless man weed near me.

Where would we be without colours?

Hung out with the seals at Taronga Zoo.

Today was an all day rehearsal at Parramatta. I'm a happy chappy!

I went on a sequinned pant quest. They didn't fit.




And here is where I'm blogging!

Apologies for the uber upload, I guess I'll see you all in Amsterdam... or Brussels... or Paris.

European wardrobe

Behold my very limited wardrobe that you are sure to be seeing a lot of over the coming months as I establish roots in France. I am limiting myself to two(!!) skirts, plus the black pants that make up my band uniform. Expect uber-outfit-recycling.

L-R: Red bucket handbag, black vinyl ruched gloves, denim bomber jacket, black tuxedo jacket, black bubble skirt, french blue men's jumper, black turtleneck, black v-neck, patent cherry red belt with pearls, white lace shirt, red knitted scarf, black and white polka dot top, sheer black tank top, white singlet, oversized black flower, black singlet, cherry red pleated skirt, leggings, stockings, boots and black patent lace-up brogues.

Wednesday is D-day as we fly out of Sydney to Amsterdam, then onwards to Belgium and Paris. I'll post where I can.

A bientôt!

Daily outfit: The last date.

The boyfriend and I had our last date tonight. I was too emotional to go to a restaurant so we just had takeaway.

I hid my eyes because I've been crying
