I felt stuck. Not just in the literal sense, but I hadn’t made a great sequence of movements since I began my work in France. London didn’t really count. It seemed more like a vacation where I arrived by air, drank beer, and spent more money than I’d wanted to. Usually, I’m much more, well, cheap, but perhaps making some extra cash on the road working long hours in the middle of nowhere with sick kids made me go a little stir-crazy, I don’t know. Anyways, I fueled my splurging spree by going to see the musical ‘Wicked’ in the West End, buying new shoes, and spending close to the same amount in cocktails in the up-and-coming and very bohemian Brick Lane neighborhood. The museums were free, of course, and I thoroughly enjoyed my days spent at the Tate Modern Museum of Art finally seeing Marcel Duchamp’s urinal and spending the afternoon looking at the Mummies of Ancient Egypt with a Croatian girl who taught me just as much about Ancient Croatia. Mostly, though, London just made me want to buy overpriced things, want to eat overpriced food, and in general, want things I was forgetting I really didn’t need.

Hello Everyone!
I am feeling much more refreshed and am happy to say that only 100 km. divide me and my conquer of the Camino de Santiago. It´s been rough with rain, but otherwise I am having a great time! I am taking a quick internet break/picking up a better pair of pants here in the Galician city of Lugo and can´t wait to picking up the pieces of this blog once I get back. Thanks for reading out there and get ready for a new and improved blog for the new year. I´m not so good with technology, but my friend Pavlin managed to get this video up and running, so if you want to see me on dutch television, here´s your chance!
To today, everyone!
