Well the time is nigh… Departure date is looming and yet my blog is still not yet ready for launch. The reason for my absence of late is because of my final uni exam on the topic of Global and Regional Sustainability. Uni studies, wrapping up at my job in community mental health and packing up my house, has made my final days quite hectic, and unfortunately destracted me from blogging. Whilst packing I found some writing about where the Brisbane to Bogota idea all started, finding these writings reinvigorated my passion for this topic and my excitement about this impending adventure.
I’ll be blogging more over the next month, after a fleeting visit to Thailand I’ll be arriving in London. Among other things I be visiting a few examples of sustainability including; Totnes, the UK’s first Transition Town and BedZED Beddington Zero Energy Development, the UK’s largest mixed use sustainable community. I’m hoping to do some Guerrilla Gardening in London if I can find some people who want to go planting just before Christmas.
So stayed tuned, as the sustainable odyssey is about to begin. As I read these words I become increasingly excited. Before I go I’m going to pop down to Northy Street City Farm to take some photos, I was there the other day and noticed that after our recent rain in Brisbane it is looking incredibly lush and green and beautiful. Until then, go well.
