From A Taxi

May 9th, 2010

Out of the taxi window I try to capture a last glimpse of a super short trip. A different side of Budapest.

A blog you just can’t miss is this one.

Brief, clever and creative without ambitious undertones. Everyday life observations, reflections and statements - in paper cuts.

Brilliant!

The cat has 120×200 cm bed to nap on. What does he do? Choose the A4 of course.

I Must Admit

April 26th, 2010

that even my ungraceful fingers are secretly longing for it now. The smell of mould straight out of the bag. Planting herbs. Placing them and nurturing them.

And now it’s gotten even worse. I’ve started to discover how many things you can actually plant. On the balcony that is. Salad. Carrots. Potatoes. You name it (and you probably already knew).

But as a fresh noobie in the area any tips are appreciated on “things-that-grow-easily-on-the-balcony” and how-to-do-it.

Miss Hellman is a great inspiration, as always.

Scattered Ashes

April 25th, 2010

Isn’t it strange? Volcano erupts. Ash assaults the air and suddenly no one can fly. Jokes are produced and spread faster than you can say Twitter. For days the words ‘chaos’ has been used more frequently than telemarketers change jobs. Everyone’s involved. If you yourself didn’t get a flight cancelled at least you knew someone who missed their vacation to Nice or had to take a bus home from Italy.

And the minute it’s over people couldn’t care less. Business as usual, so what? We live, complain about our comfort, cry over slight discomfort and then we forget.

Sudden chaos is perishable and doesn’t stick with us as with people and places with everyday hardship.

Cry and forget. Personally I didn’t miss a flight but I will not forget these images for a while.

Topography

April 17th, 2010

The workplace is a dusty, messy and noisy place. From time to time still I find new angles that reflects its versatility. My colleague complained that my recent images are too static. He wants more before and after images. Until then, behold the small pieces and parts that makes the whole in the end.

Flat Action

April 14th, 2010

Beware - Men (and on-site photographer) at work!

There is now floor.

And very, very manly (and very, very noisy) tools.

and some floor.

and of course, the occasional and mandatory injuries.

In Good Company

Meet some of the watch crew at our new place. Posers, aren’t they!

But nothing beats the original house cat, my Chibi.

Brick In The Wall

April 6th, 2010

Walls are down. Floors are beginning to take form. The bedroom is painted. Breaks has been taken and junk has been thrown.

And so Easter 2010 went by.

Bedroom floor, walls still needing attention.

Bedroom view.

Planning the study room.

Study room walls. See the marks from the old wall just behind the new beams.

Coffee. Just as necessary as measuring and hammering.

You Build Me Up

April 2nd, 2010

Remember the buying a home part? We have the keys.

Time to start! Renovation - Day 1.

Imagine the study room here. Easy, no?

Bedroom looks more like a prison cell at the moment.

Driver Survivor

March 26th, 2010

I went to have lunch a little more than a week ago

and while I was waiting for this

I found a book on the table

and started reading:

A much more relevant bumper sticker than “if you can read this you’re too close”.

Hope I’ll be patient tomorrow driving up north for skiing.

Sign Spotting

March 25th, 2010

My colleagues were almost overwhelmed by signs today.

The ice-cream truck.

Motorcycles.

Itchy noses.

A red ferrari.

Running into people you know just by leaving the building for a walk.

You know what I’m talking about.

Spring.

Did you see any other signs lately? We mustn’t let it get away now.
