Svensk Ikea. Det är identisk till någon andra Ikea!
Yes yes I know, it's hard to believe, but I've lived in Sweden for a year and not once been to Ikea.
Well now I'm looking forward this movie: Let’s finish with death. That’s where the whole film is leading. Chris has decided he wants to die on Rapa Nui. Then he changes his mind and opts for Venice instead. Assuming that a death can be scripted like a film, where in the world would be the ideal […]
It's the weekend, baby! Time for methods of barbarism in Bulgaria.
Some of our politicians have been long celebrated, but I don't think people always remember how important and influential South African lawyers and judges have been internationally, as well as domestically. Besides Navi Pillay, real greats include Richard Goldstone, who prosecuted human rights […]

I don't speak much French (yet). But my Dad's most recent teacher is a West African guy. He tells me that he is rigorously taught Parisian standard French. But I'd like to imagine my Dad surprising the Occitans with a colloquial Abidjan accent.
My Dad is now 80, and to celebrate he has gone to the south of France for a month to perfect his French. For him, age appears to be an accelerant.
