The other day the M40 cropped up in a conversation with a friend. We discovered we have differing views on this sweeping stretch of motorway that connects London and Birmingham. I used to look forward to it as a relatively congestion-free chance to actually drive after grinding around the M25. She [...]
Marlene Richter (RCNUWC 1998) Picturing hunger and misery in direct connection to ethnic origin is racist and must be considered as an offense. Basically, what the fight against “Hunger” is about has three different dimensions: First of all, there are … Continue reading →

Thais are the freaking most gossipy, dramatic people on the face of this earth.
Seriously, if you cannot find something better to gossip about than the way I freaking wear my UNIFORM SOCKS or how early I get off the songtheow, you have a sad, sad life.
If no one saw it anywhere else, Rotary [...]
6:00 AM. The alarm on my phone goes off. I blindly reach under my pillow to shut it off, but can't seem to find it. I reach around some more. The beeps continue. I force myself to open my eyes. I become aware that the reason I can't find my phone is that I (and my pillow) have somehow become oriented [...]
Three days full with AFS spirit and work. For another great AFS weekend we went to the Constance in Cologne.

The High School I attend did a Talent Show with auditions and so on, and the band I’m playing in, so far known as the “Syd & Kaila Group” got into he show. We were very happy to be able to perform a song in front of such a big audience, and chose to perform “Strange Passage” [...]
I must say, you guys had some hilarious comments on how to alienate Chileans. Sooooo true. First, a few ways to alienate a Chilean:
When you want them to pass you the bottle of Coke, ask them to pass you the azúcar con agua, color caramelo (the caramel-colored watery sugar.) Here in Chile, [...]

Hi! Chelsea here.
It’s the end of February, and I can’t think of ONE single thing to say. Everything is normal…this month has gone by way way too fast. Hm. And now we’re on vacation again. (yes, again….they have too many [...]
An update post has been something I’ve been throwing around in my mind for quite some time now. In retrospect, what’s been stopping me has been my own fears that I won’t do it justice. It’s been almost two years since I left Germany. Somehow, even though the phrase is overused, [...]

As the proverb goes "once you drink from the Nile, you are destine to return." Though I leave Egypt in less than two weeks, I already feel the urge to return as quickly as possible. As a whole, Egypt is frustrating, but the people are welcoming, and my work here is intriguing.
Instead of being [...]

Dead for three months according to glorious blogger. Well, not really. I've been in the mighty Czech Republic over the winter break for almost one month, managed to get to the UWC winter reunion and enjoy the exquisite cuisine of the place we spent the weekend at. I got back to Menton for my last [...]

You read it right, I am resurrecting (is that a word?) this blog back to life! Can I get a Woohoo?! So. Basically this is gonna be less of a wordy blog (lol. hopefully.) and more ..image-y? But purpose-wise, it’s gonna be just the same life-tracking, thought-sharing, picture-showing blog. :) Now, [...]

"How was your break?" "Did you have a nice Christmas?"
These are the questions that I was hearing at the end of January 2012, when the spring semester was starting here at the University of Maryland. Unfortunately, I couldn't really sum up all of what I would've liked [...]

It's been a while, that's why I'll just spare you all the information - enjoy the pictures!
A heap of the following pictures are taken on Rottnest Island, an Island just half an hour from Perth. Rottnest Island and a very small amount of other places in southeastern Western Australia are [...]
On our second full day in Buenos Aires we got on the bus to head 6 hours north to Santa Fe. The bus ride itself was long and the bus wasn´t exactly clean either... We obviously chose the wrong bus company.
The landscape was incredibly flat and unexciting but being tired, I managed to sleep a [...]
I've been using the "Oil Cleansing Method" for a couple weeks now. And my face has never been happier with me!
It's a lot easier than it sounds, but the first step to "OCM" (as the internet calls it) is getting over the idea of putting oil on your face. Now, do this with me: put your oil [...]

So time is marching on and now Europe is so close I can almost taste it!
There are almost 10 days to go and I'm a little scared, very excited and oh so ready to leave! Feeling VERY under prepared; I thought you were supposed to prepare before travelling overseas but I've done very very little of the [...]

This is just a quick note to let you know that I won´t be working for the next 7 months (starting December 24th).
I´ll be living in the US for that time, so all the bitches in the US, I´d be happy to take your tour (free of charge, of course, cause I´m the [...]

This has to be quick because i’m leaving soon! My mind is racing right now and I don’t remember everything i’ve done this week! School has been great. Thursday, I went to Gallimarkt which is like a fair. It was so much fun! I went with some girls from my class and they made it a time [...]
Hello again,
This past weekend my program took a 4 day trip to the border and to the infamous “Golden Triangle”.
The Golden Triangle is where Laos, Burma and Thailand all meet and it is known for its indigenous peoples and the production and trafficking of opium and other [...]
