I cannot remember a period as busy as the one from which I
have just emerged. Over the last four
weeks I have been inspired by the ADE Institute orientation in Bali, been
bowled over by the temples in Siem Reap, and flown 14000 miles attending an
interview in England. The ADE Institute
was, as I have said before, amazing. Now
I am thinking about a related project that I need to complete by 23rd
May so that is very much on my mind.
Siem Reap was eye-opening, and truly a slice of ‘proper’, authentic
Asia. Very impressive temples and I am
so pleased that we were able to take our children to see the likes of Angkor
Watt. The interview – well, the flight
over to England was stunningly complicated and exhausting, beginning with a
cancelled flight from Brisbane to Abu Dhabi, and result in stopovers in
Singapore, Abu Dhabi, Bahrain and 48 HOURS after departure, eventually London
Heathrow. Wired on coffee and doubly
jet-lagged, I somehow made it through both days of a very challenging SLT interview,
and the great news for me is that I now have a new job to look forward to in
August. Such a relief for all of
us.
