Víkþórr and I have a fetish in common: we are language fetishists. Languages and grammar turn us on. Beyond that, we also have a lot of non-sexual fun communicating in different languages. We mix languages all the time, to express ourselves, to explain things, to fight, and to love each other.
We speak English most of [...]

November is National Novel Writing Month! Who will join me and write a novel? :-)
The goal is to write one 50,000-word novel between November 1st and November 30th, midnight, no matter how crappy it is. I think this is fun! And it’s less than 2,000 words a day. Should be doable.
Have you ever dreamed of [...]

Víkþórr and I wrote our first common adjective story a couple months ago. We chose to write it in English, since English is the language that the sum of us masters best. ;-)
In case you don’t know what an adjective story is, the principle is simple: one person writes a story, but leaves all adjectives [...]

I learn one new habit each month. The new habit for month #5 was blogging every day. This is about the challenges I encountered and what harms my productivity.

There are so many great daily habits that I’d like to adopt. Every month I have a hard time choosing. This time, I let my intuition guide me. It told me that the most appropriate new habit now is “blogging every day for at least one hour”.
I’m surprised. There are many other habits which I [...]

As some of you know, I’m fond of contemporary Tibetan music. I already shared many of my favorite songs here. Now I found a few more that I absolutely love and thought I’d share them too.
The Dalai Lama song. Isn’t it beautiful?
A song by Tsetan, Choedar & Nyimdol: Lokphepdang. Every time I listen to this [...]

I’d like to share with you some of my favorite Tibetan songs. They’re so beautiful. Don’t expect meditating monks though – this is contemporary stuff.
What I noticed first is that there are many songs about the Land of Snows, its identity and its political situation. This one is a very beautiful example. Can’t stand watching [...]

Guess what my computer’s name is? It’s Antonio, in honor of Antonio Vivaldi. I love Vivaldi. He’s amazing, he’s got such a power! Listen to that BOMB. So much energy, so much life! There is just everything in his music. Sometimes he’s melancholic, sometimes playful and light. He’s painfully sensitive at times, he can be [...]

I HAVE to tell you about tango! I love dancing tango argentino. When I dance, I have a wonderful feeling of freedom and lightheartedness. I can express myself, express the music, express my feelings about the music and about my partner. That makes me so happy. Every time I dance tango, I feel in love [...]
