Sabbatical

This blog is on a long break. I’m trying to focus on my art blog which you can visit here.
Thanks for visiting.

Robot

Somebody’s robot sculpture disintegrates slowly outside uni in the wind and rain.

Venice Food

A post on Venice food as promised! So sorry about the huge delay I’ve been busy with two art shows this month, my post-graduate show and Out Of Sight.

Anyway, gelato is the most important food of Venice especially if you’re a broke student. I practically lived on it.

Small bakeries are great places to stop when you’re lost in Venice and tired after walking for hours.

Pasta at the supermarket in Venice :P

Fucking tiny lasagna. Beware of overpriced and touristy restaurants that serve tiny quantities of food. I paid twelve euros for this!

A chocolate shop :)


Hotel snacks before our night out. Also don’t forget to try lots of Bellini, it’s an awesome mix of peach and champagne.

Cafe’s are a good place to grab a quick bite of affordable pizza and/or a sandwich when you’re on the go, which was most of the time for us since we were obsessed with seeing as much art as possible in six days.

Venice Streets

Lots of photos of venice streets and canals in this post. The next post will be Venice food! :) And pictures of venice graffiti are already up at my new art blog here.

It felt like a fantasy city. Lost tourists everywhere, traffic lights on the canals, and petrol pumps for taxi’s which are speedboats. Gondola’s are exorbitant and ridiculously expensive, but the entire venice experience is worth at least five days.

Rooftop View

View from the roof at my place in Bournemouth near St. Peter’s Church, The Square.


Stonehenge

A day trip to Stonehenge and nearby towns Amesbury and Salisbury is a must-do if you’re in the area. Don’t take the sight-seeing bus – it’s loud and boring. Instead rent a car or walk the 2 kilometers from Amesbury to Stonehenge.


One of the many burial mounds that surround Stonehenge. It’s a nice walk  if the weather is good.


Two more burial mounds in the distance.


Sheep!


A swan on the Avon river, we passed this on 45 min. walk back to Amesbury from Stonehenge.
