Climbing and the quest for a bicycle
Dienstag, Februar 26th, 2008A couple of weeks ago I caught up with Rich at the Grampians. He had posted on Chockstone.org that he was looking for a climbing partner and I was free so why not shoot up to the Grampians for a couple of days? I also met Peter there, an Italian traveller. For the first time I went to Mt. Arapiles, one of the best crags in Australia. Mainly trad climbing and perfect rock in a nice setting. Here you can see the pictures in the Gallery.
I’ve also tried to find a bike pretty much since I arrived – several auctions on ebay I just missed due to stupidity or other bikes got sold minutes before I called the owner. Finally I found a stylish street racer that will hopefully last a couple of months – that’s all I’m expecting for 50 bucks.
Julie’s Admission Ceremony
Dienstag, Februar 26th, 2008The other day Julie got admitted as a lawyer in the Supreme Court. Quite a long ceremony followed by an $800 lunch (for five!) at Silks in the Crown complex. Yummy! | See the pictures
Was bisher geschah …
Freitag, Januar 11th, 2008Zuerst einmal etwas verspätet ein gutes Neues Jahr Euch allen!
Habe lange nichts mehr von mir hören lassen hier – werde jetzt versuchen, das wiedergutzumachen und einen kleinen Überblick liefern, was ich in den letzten zwei Monaten hier in Australien so gemacht habe (weiterlesen …)
I’m now officially …
Freitag, September 14th, 2007… a Physicist! Got my diploma certificate and now I’m probably supposed to feel any different … Please send all gifts and bounties to my home address in the Imprint.
I’m coming home …
Montag, Mai 07th, 2007It’s been almost a year now when I took off in Munich, off to Australia, not knowing exactly what to exspect. And now there are only a few weeks left before my plane departs from Melbourne. Monday 4. June in the evening I’ll enter the plane; after a short stop over in Dubai I’ll be back in Germany on Wednesday 6. June and back in Konstanz probably on the 7th.
As usually after such stays, you never quite know whether you’re sad or happy – I reckon I’ll be both. Happy ‘cos finally I’ll have my friends, family and the alps (you wouldn’t believe how much you can miss them, just the view) nearby; sad, because obviously there are quite a few things to be left behind, things and people that I’ve become fond of over the last year …
[Update] Happy new Year!
Montag, Januar 01st, 2007
I wish you all a happy new year! Hope you had at least as much fun as I had at my NYE party …
After I finally had a good night’s rest to recover from NYE you can view some pictures in the Gallery | See the pictures …
Merry Christmas!
Sonntag, Dezember 24th, 2006L.A. Crash
Dienstag, September 12th, 2006
Hab mir grad zum zweiten Mal innerhalb von zwei Wochen die DVD angeschaut – ich kann nur sagen, klasse Film! Grob gesagt gehts um Rassismus in Los Angeles, erzählt wird das Ganze an Hand verschiedener, ineinander verworrener Einzelhandlungen. Wenn ihr also an einem nass-kalten Herbstabend nicht wißt was tun: ab in die Videothek und L.A. Crash ausleihen!
Mit dabei sind übrigens Sandra “Speed” Bullock, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, Ryan “Eiskalte Engel” Phillipe, Brendan “Djungle-George” Fraser und Matt “Verrückt nach Mary” Dillon.
Skype, Messenger & Co.
