Reflections through Cyberspace

Did you know that there is a Lapland in the UK? I just discovered their website here!
Lapland UK, located in Kent, is working closely with the Forestry Commission.
Here’s a program for the day.
I think it’s a very interesting initiative

As I mentioned last Sunday, yesterday a lecturer organised a visit to Valletta for our group. I must say it was simply great - we had a great time and I learned a lot of facts related to history which I never knew before. Also for the first time I noticed certain details in buildings [...]

I’m really looking forward to tomorrow, since we are going to have a very interesting morning.
One of our lecturers has organised this activity, which is meant to help us with our dissertations and with our Public Policy studies.
He is going to take us on a tour of Valletta - but a tour with a difference [...]

Yesterday I went to Gozo for a few hours in the afternoon. Left home at around 4pm, got the 4.30pm ferry and arrived at Gozo at around 5pm. We only stayed there for a couple of hours, since we got the 8.45pm ferry back to Malta. Very short trip but worth it

We took the boat to Comino at 10am and got there by 10.30am. The sea was calm and the [...]

I’m just back from a meal with my university friends from Public Policy together with three of our lecturers.

We went to the National Archives this afternoon and it was really interesting:)
The people who work there were really helpful and explained to us the history of the place (it is believed that it is the oldest hospital in Europe) and also about the procedure of archiving. More information about the history of the set [...]

Tomorrow afternoon we are going to have a lecture with a difference. One of our lecturers has organised a visit to the National Archives in Rabat instead of the normal lecture in class.
This reminds me of the “school outings” we used to have during secondary school, which was around 5 years ago. I remember [...]

Early this morning I headed down to Valletta. Now, I must admit that I don’t usually like Carnival time although I feel really sorry for those people who work really hard all year long to prepare for these few days of fun and then the weather ruins everything.
However, after an absence of some years (around [...]

Christmas was spent as usual this year. Started the day (or night) with midnight mass at Selmun chapel in Mellieha. I couldn’t sleep before 3am but still managed to get up quite early.
Went to grandparent’s house later in the morning for Christmas lunch. This is a tradition which has been going on for years. All [...]
