I’m just back from the Brikkuni concert. Tired and honestly a little underwhelmed after the fast few weeks. Absolutely not because the concert was in any way lacking – it was wonderful in a myriad ways and I enjoyed every little bit of it – but because I literally did not know what to do …
Exhibition over. Emotional. Very tired. Excited. Intensely, intensely grateful. This has been a wonderful week and an experience that has left its mark on many parts of me.
Wanted: diarist for busy writer/ marketing / art / water / permaculture person at the crossroads of things who is currently too busy to document her life properly. Variety, mischief, unusual ideas guaranteed. Only serious offers. Seriously. How does one document and live at the same time? Massive kudos to those who do it. I’m …
Finally in bed. Somewhat sniffly and on the edges of a grump. It’s one of those moments when I’m walking the thin line between feeling somewhat miserable and deciding that actually things are really and truly totally ok. My body is complaining. I’ve been doing too much over the past few weeks and my immune …
Epically long day. My throat is a bit scratchy, my brain all foggy. I intended to finish a little more than I got to tonight but I really must sleep now. I slept late yesterday, woke up early and had a full day with three chapters. Morning chapter shopping for food to prototype dishes for …

Bahrija day through and through. A second day of wilderness, Permaculture Foundation work and hanging out with friends. It feels like we’re making progress although there’s still so much that needs to happen. It feels good to be part of something worthwhile.
Bahrija Day. I’ve retreated from the city into the wilderness for the next day and a half. It’s been an active day at Bahrija with visits, new people, shared meals and lots of talk of plans, hopes and dreams for the short and long term future of this place. I’ve spent most of the day …
A day immersed in the future. Continuing on yesterday’s workshop with FOAM, a group of us spent the day diving deeper into the 4 future scenarios we started imagining yesterday. We came up with what situations from these scenarios would taste like, what ingredients would be in them, how food would be served and what stories would …
Future crafting day. Today I was part of a day long workshop that tried to imagine what a food future for Malta might look like. Facilitors Maja and Nik from ‘transdisciplinary laboratory’ foam helped us imagine 4 scenarios of the future: a continuation of the present, a collapse, forced change and transformation. We looked at futures …
