Guitar practice

I am practicing; changing my flying fingers to fingers that fly.

Hello my long lost friend

Here’s to long lost friends. The neighbourhood kids, class mates, team mates. The ones I played football with, or ignored at school. Played in the sandbox with, back when we were kids. We had some fun, connected. Maybe even did some things we shouldn’t have. We may have lost contact, but you’re still with me. […]

Vilnius visit in January

Through city snowscapes we roam. Polar explorers; my brave dog and I.

A #SOPA protest song

The day the internet partially blacked out, the ‘Wikipedia WTF’ search on Twitter, a source of entertainment and worry. All in the name of the battle against piracy. Can’t we just send more ships to the waters around Somalia? Or maybe we should send them to fight those companies that hijack our access to information […]

A frozen dance

The frozen dance of the grey headed trees is accompanying us on the road to Vilinius. Their poses still and diverse, sculpted by snow and frost.

The eternal love dance of the tides

The perfect lines of the shore are caressed by the sea’s water, softly tickling, gently kissing. Rolling its tongues in little waves, carefully licking the curves, before overflowing completely the sands of the shore, sinking deep into the beach, touching each grain. Then again, gently kissing until, a big wave rushes in. The rhythm dictated […]

Happy places near and far

Sometimes it’s great to dream of the happy places far away. Places where you’ve once been, or places you wish to go to one day. But while dreaming don’t forget, the happiness you’ll find closer by. For it’s not every day that we get to pack our bags and fly.

A rainy winter

The gods are crying. While they now should be spreading frozen confetti.
