Antipodean Odyssey

Anna-Olimpia Rosenblum has been writing her PhD with me, on a teaching tool she has developed, using animated retellings of Aesop’s fables to help language-learners with vocabulary acquisition.

A chance conversation at work led me to rediscover an favourite game: Scarab of Ra (1987), written by Rick Holzgrafe, and published by Semicolon Games.

Last week I dropped into my favourite new Dunedin op-shop, the Re-Store, which is a charity shop operated by Habitat for Humanity.

On a whim this weekend, I visited the Otago Museum to see the travelling Relics: A New World Rises exhibition.

I’ve recently gone back to jigsaw-land, following a fascination with the world of jigsaw competitions.
