Fairy Falls
Brianna and I went to Fairy Falls near Auckland.
Colouring masterpiece
I haven’t done colouring since I was a little kid. My three nieces let me join in, and this master piece of art was what I created 🙂 #skill #stillgotit #colouring
Self driving bus
I took my very first ride on a self driving bus! It wasn’t very smart, and it often got confused and once even stopped because a leaf blew in front of it. But it was still cool to experience this technology first hand. Hopefully I’ll be reading this again in the future, whilst whizzing across […]
Coworking in Poznan
I headed to Poznan for a few days of coworking with Madhvi, Craig, Aleksandra and Katrin 🙂
Congratulations Auntie Vera
One of my favourite humans made it to 100 years of age recently; my Great Auntie Vera. I was planning to visit her next month, but after a strong charge through life, she left us before my visit. Thankfully I got to sit down for a big long chat the last time I visited 🙂 […]

Apartment after a spruce up
East Side Gallery
The East Side Gallery is a popular tourist spot near to my home in Berlin, so I often take people there 🙂
Medovik torta
Medovik torta is a traditional Russian dessert I learned about a long time ago from a close friend from Kazakhstan. Years later, I experienced it with another person from Kazakhstan when we found it in a random cafe in Berlin 🙂
Ulyana and Olga in Berlin
I took my visitors Uylana and Olga site seeing in Berlin 🙂
Middle East weather
The Middle East, always warm, always sunny … NOT! That ground outside aint meant to be white 😉
Diana
Berlin street art
I organised a walking tour of the street art scene in Berlin. Here are some pictures from the trip.
Autism
I can relate to this well. It reminds me of how I felt throughout much of my life. I still do feel this quite often, but time has helped me learn how to figure out what the rest of you nutters mean sometimes. Found thanks to Leah Marie Zeppos.
Budapest with Lynn
Lynn and I headed to Budapest for a weekend of site seeing 🙂

Grunewald – new route, with biergarten stop
This is a copy/paste of hiking instructions I use when organising hikes in Grunewald forest This is the same forest many have you have joined me for hikes on before, but a totally different route. We start at S Grunewald at 11:00am (look for the mob of hikers), then head straight into the forest. We […]
Limerick
Here are some photos I took in Limerick at new years eve 2016.
The beauty of jokes like this, is who is most likely to understand them
First Formula Renault 2.0 race = win :)
Classic Indy Series – Detroit
Finished 13th due to an unfortunate run in with a backmarker. Still a fun race though 🙂 I also caused an incident for someone else 😛
Meeting R2D2
I met R2D2 today. He seems like a pretty swell guy. I was surprised how big he is, but I guess it makes sense that he’s a bit chunk since Kenny Baker needed to fit inside him.
The cast is off :D :D :D
My stupid cast on my arm has been bugging me for weeks, and now it’s off 😀 😀 😀 I can now clean my right arm pit and scratch my nose whilst eating 😀
Arm art
This is what happens when you let adults loose with a marker pen on your arm.
Busted arm
Well this blows arse :/ I was riding one of those nifty little shared Mobike bike’s along a cycle lane in Berlin when I bumped a concrete raised bit beside the path with the tyre, so I tried to move away from it. But somehow the whole tyre lost grip and the bike dropped to […]

Potsdam bike trip
Thanks to Craig for organising kick butt cycling trip to Potsdam 🙂
Hate
Well this escalated quickly! I responded to a question on Facebook regarding how to do deal with morons who ask extremely basic questions without bothering to search for an answer first. lol
Oslo winter 2018
I headed back to Oslo for the WordCamp Oslo conference, but also to visit some of my favourite humans. Download video file Thanks to Leah for providing the skiing clip of me. I have enough trouble staying upright on those darned skis let alone doing selfie videos 😉
Back skating at Schlachtensee
I headed back to Schlachtensee for some skating again, this time with more than just me on the ice 🙂 Download video
Skating on Schlachtensee
I went ice skating in Berlin today 🙂 Beautiful super thick super hard ice. I had the whole lake to myself except when a dad asked me if it was safe for his daughter to hop on for a photo opportunity. To my Berlin friends: Don’t try this unless you know what you are doing. […]
Fish n chips with ice cream
This is what happens when you order fish n chips from a drunk chef. Fish n chips, served with ice cream and a banana fritter. Not sure if genius or stupid. I enjoyed it very much 🙂
Lady Ryan
I keep seeing people posting these photos on Facebook of themselves as the opposite gender. Everyone else becomes ugly opposite gender person. Lady Ryan on the other hand is totally HOTTTT! I guess when you start from a low point, you can only go up from there 🙂
Elena’s visit to Berlin
Some pictures from a fun days worth of site seeing in berlin with Elena.

Cub Uniform
I thought I’d gained weight, but I tried out my Cub Scout uniform from 30 years ago, and it still fits!!!
Beginner: Wannsee loop 16km
Beginner hike starting at S-bahn Wannsee. Route: We head to the coastline via the forest, then walk towards Pfaueninsel. From there we walk through the forest until we reach the famous Glienicke Schlöss, a palace formerly built for Prince Carl of Prussia in 1826. We then head into the forest again, before crossing the bridge […]

Chocolate eclair dinner
I was feeling terrific this afternoon, so I decided to treat myself to a horrendously unhealthy but equally tremendously yummy dinner of chocolate eclairs. I went to the bakery and they had two left. The friendly Turkish man by the counter (who I had never met) asked me what I’d like and I said “Ich […]
