Spring!

Ok, these posts aren't in order. The room post and hill and building were from September/October, the food posts are from September to now, then the Christmas (Dec) post, then Switzerland (Feb), then the Museum (last week).

Switzerland

I have a friend in Switzerland who agreed to show me around for a few days in the Winter. First you see Switzerland's iconic mountain, which is also featured on the...T..tolberone? chocolates. I actually went up to get a closer view of this mountain
Here. It was...minus 34? degrees Celsius. I forget, but it was cold. COLD. When I got back to London, I braced myself for the cold but it was only 9 degrees Celsius. Felt like summer.
Sweets! Not all mine. I just had the bun and spicy hot chocolate.
I love European buildings with paintings on the walls. Italy had those too.
This was in front of a museum I went to. Let me see if I have this right, I *think* there were some soldiers for some non Swiss guy and something happened and they all died? I don't remember. It's a nice monument though.
Okay, so in Switzerland, Punch is a warm drink. It's good though, Kinda like fruit tea.

Christmas

I didn't have internet access during christmas week which was annoying, but I was able to spend time with my chinese friends and had hot pot! Not everything pictured is vegan, but I only ate the tofu and the noodles. The brownies pictured are vegan banana brownies, made by me. I thought they were overdone so I put a lot of frosting on them, but they were actually very rich and just fine.

Exeter Museum


It's free and really cool, but my camera was low on battery so I only took a picture of a really old quilt. I'll go back again later.

Vegan Food!

The lasagna is made with vegan 'cheese'


The hummus was handmade, no blender, no food processor.













The penis pasta was a secret satan gift.


Vegan foods, all vegan, no meat, no dairy, despite what it appears to be.


I made refried beans too but I guess I didn't take a photo.

A post!

Of course they uploaded backwards... Well the first picture is of london. The hill is 'cardiac hill' of which only about 1/3 is photographed, and is my only way up to campus (getting to campus requires even more climbing after the hill) the Next building is the psych building.




The sunset photo is a view on my was back to my flat from city centre.

And lastly is a photo of my room.
