Pisa, Italy

Having had a nice foster experience in the past (we mean the experience with our Spanish feline friend, Miau), we decided to continue with it.We decided to choose helping with cats, because a dog needs more attention and we didn't have a lot of time... always studying...So we found an ad saying that some volunteers were needed and... we met Filomena, who we admire to.Filomena is a strong personality young woman from Naples and living in Pisa, who takes care of cats every day at every time. In fact, she is almost able to look after every feline colony existing in Pisa and its surroundings, and she takes care of some Neapolitan cats too!We were fostering cats the whole academic year, and we met a lot of buddies (also doggies) who had their different life stories which weren't too happy.On July 2007, we left Italy with a good balance because every cat was re-homed. The only cat we couldn't re-home was Kara. She was too feral, but we found a garden where she is living out and being fed by the family living there.If you are interested in helping, donating, fostering or adopting in Italy, contact us through this entry and we will help you to get in touch with Filomena.

Vienna, Austria

Our second stay in Vienna went even better than the first one. Markus let us sleep in his house, and we did not took all the time to work, so we actually could enjoy some of the pleasures of Vienna. We worked in the EGU General Assembly from Saturday to Tuesday, and presented our poster (that you will be able to see in our scientific blog) on Monday. After that we went to the Prater (that you can see in the pics), the old traditional amusement park of the city. It was a lot of fun, but we (especially Guillermo) almost puked in Markus' favourite attraction.We also visited the Schönbrunn, in which complex is the Gardening School of Markus. Though it is not extremely big (no, Markus?), it has wonderful gardens around (arrondeder...).The last day we worked with Markus in a garden and a terrace, what was actually very nice, because it helped us to spend less than 40 € for the whole length of the trip. Moreover, we learnt very nice things that we expect to apply in our future garden.

Blackrock, County Dublin, Ireland

This is our first comment, just to say that we are extremely happy to have found a beautiful place to live, where we'll stay at least one more year. The views from the window are fantastic, as you can see... , and the garden is like a small paradise to us . If we had to rate it, this is the best house where we have lived . Moreover, we can enjoy the wonderful views from Seapoint DART Station, the nearest to our home... . As an extra, here you have two Joannie Madden songs with an Irish Whistle. Hope one day I'll learn how to play it too...

Brno, Czech Republic

We spent our last day in Czech Republic in Brno, capital of Moravia and second city of the country (about 400.000 inhabitants). We decided to have a more relaxing day, drank a Czech coke-like drink (sweeter and definitely better tasting), did some shopping, bought a pizza and slept in the University residence where Miroslav lives. The residence was extremely cheap, about 5€ for one night and two people. The following morning, we woke up very early and went to the train station...change of country...Austria was coming next!
