Extracts of the last 2 weeks:

writing an explanation of placental separation on an exam, drenched from hair to jeans in NZ spring rain

scrubbing my floors

throwing beer cans at a theatre in Wellington

wandering blindly through a cave of glow worms

dipping in the cold Pacific

driving 200km in 8 hours along NZ’s Eastern Cape (read: winding, hilly, animal herds)

reading picture books in German to small children who appeared in my bed (pre 8 am)

dipping in the warm Pacific

watching the sunset on the beach under a palm tree whilst eating shaved ice & coconut

explaining Midwifery to every random person who sat beside me in airplanes/ports all over the world (THEY ASKED!)

eating a bagel from Tim Hortons whilst driving down the 401 (quintessential)

curling up with my mama & the dog & lentil soup in front of a woodstove

as they would say in The Idiots (read:obscure film reference) – Quite. A. Lot.

No wonder my head’s twirling.
And I’m having a nap.

pictures & stories to come
