Renault Zoé and Mobility

This entry was posted in Stories on by

Yesterday I tested the Renault Zoe. This is one big advantage of using Mobility instead of owning a car. Renault Zoe is the second electrical car I drive, after the Renault Twizy some months ago.

This time I was very pleased with the car. The ride was short – 10km each director – but at the end I used only 10% of the battery. Without traffic and no highways. I think you can get up to 200k with one charger by driving in ecological way. No noise, great response, all gadgets of normal car – GPS, bluetooth, cruise control – and comfortable. Plus it is beautiful in its light blue.

Cave 12 est de retour

Après 6 ans et demi, “ma” Cave12 est de retour. Dans des nouveaux locaux. Aussi une cave, avec une configuration assez semblable à l’ancienne. Comme était bon de revoir Fernando et Marion dans leur monde et écouter un concert de musique d’improvisation/expérimental.

Le bar (fini les bières SuperBock, maintenant c’est Baarer)

 

La scène, avant concert.

Novembre à la maison

Le froid arrive à Genève, le ciel est couvert.

On profite pour rester à la maison et travailler dans la cuisine. Résultat:

2,6 kg de coings à la base, pour 1,7kg de pâte de coing (50% sucre) et deux bouteilles de gelée de coing.

Un pain multi-céréales de 700g fait avec: 150g froment intégral, 130g épeautre, 170g froment mi-blanche, 25g grains de tournesol et 15g de noisettes moulus. 70% hydratation (un peut trop…).

Les skis ont été loués pour la saison, le vélo est dans le service. On achète aussi des ingrédients pour accompagner  nos légumes et ce soir on regarde au cinéma Gravity. Oups, on est encore vendredi!

Pas de journaux

Ce matin Le Temps n’était pas dans la boite aux lettres. Probablement problème à l’impression. J’arrive à la gare pour prendre le interregio en direction de Lausanne et une ambiance plus soignée que l’habitude. Oui, il n’a pas de 20minutes, le journal gratuit. Quel différence de ne pas avoir déjà à 7heures du matin la gare pleine de “vieux” journaux feuilletés en 5 minutes et laissés comme des mégots. Je crois à un gros problème d’impression.

Os meus primeiros pães

Este fim-de-semana fiz os meus primeiros pães. Seguindo um pouco ao feeling a receita da E e outras receitas e teorias em Zine de Pão, cheguei a este resultado que, pelo menos de aspecto, não parece mal de todo. A ver quando o provarmos.

Aeroporto do Porto (Pedras Rubras)

Os vendedores de crédito em cartão da Barclays estao sempre ali. Nunca me importunaram, talvez nao tenha cara de precisar de crédito. Fora isso gosto do aeroporto do Porto. Fora o facto de ter de andar um quilometro quando chegamos num voo da TAP até poder chegar às bagagens e sair. Mas o que gosto é o silencio da falta de anuncios. O Sr. X esta a lixar a vida a muita gente. Se ainda conseguir chegar a tempo à porta de embarque, iremos pedir aos restantes passageiros de lhe apontar o dedo. Se ainda fossem assim os anuncios, va la, mas senao prefiro a falta deles. Porque Lisboa nao copia? Gosto da luz, das grandes janelas. Das casas de banho que funcionam, da musica ao vivo – jazz – que da um ambiente relaxado e calmo. Last call for gate 32. Hora de partir.

Ice skating, 10 years after…

This entry was posted in Photos Stories on by

Back in 2003 I bought ice skates in Finland, where I was living. After using them for that season, with my erasmus colleagues, they end up in plastic bags until today.

We decided to try the ice skating ring in Carouge and I took out my old skates. They are too big for me – probably I got that size as they were the cheapest – and so at the end of the skate session today I just gave them to the rental place.
