TWENTY YEARS
I'm about to begin day one of my twentieth year teaching English to students in Catholic secondary schools. There's a lot I can say about my teaching career, but I'll save it all for another post... LJ, 28 January 2014.

SWEDEN
The five days I spent in Sweden during April 2013 were five of the greatest days of my life. I adored so many things about Sweden - birch trees, roe deer, melting snow, bobsledding, cranes returning from the north, the drumming of woodpeckers, Stockholm's mind-blowing architecture, Uppsala Cathedral, Uppsala's rune stones, Nils Oscar ale, herrings, rye bread, blueberry soup, cool modern trains, tramping across frozen lakes and swamps etc. I was very fortunate to stay with friends (respect Nat and Rob) in a small town called Vreta, not far from Uppsala, a university town north-west of Stockholm. The following posts will feature photographs from those five days. I hope you like them. LJ, January 5 2014.

KOSCUISZKO
I tramped to the summit of Mt Koscuiszko on New Year's Day. Sublime stuff. A tremendous way to start off the new year. LJ, January 2 2014.
