ese79: Started this bag two or three years ago, and am only now finally working on finishing it. I’d glued a bottom on and the glue (after 2-3 years) came undone... so after removing that bottom (which took vigorous rubbing off with the suede side of the leather

ese79: My first leather handiwork in at least a year!!! (I think). A new belt for a 20-yr old sheepskin aviator jacket I love, because its belt literally fell apart this year. (The jacket itself is also VERY worn out, but I LOVE it!!) Materials: €7 leather strap

ese79: In Greece, waiters bring you a jug of water (tap or filtered, always free) and glasses (large glasses) the second you sit down, even before taking your order. . In the UK, in most places, you have to ask at least three times for a thimbleful of water, eve
ese79: On the way to coffee with a friend, we pulled over for a second on the mountain road. (Most roads are mountain roads in Greece) and the sun on the tall grass / weeds made me smile, so I thought I’d share it. #becauseGreece #fiftyshadesofblue #skyBlue
ese79: Wonderful breakfast
ese79: Make your own Christmas traditions, they said... so we did. #zuma #theGiftOfZuma My favourite dinner in London. Also, that is one heck of a cool ice cube!!!
ese79: December has hit. Winter is here. I didn’t win at NaNoWriMo. But I was THERE this year! . The moon over the sea, as seen from Koufonisi’s Foinikas beach. That island is the most peaceful place in the world! #greece #becauseGreece #fiftyshadesofblue :blue_

ese79: Getting flashbacks from working on IBM SPSS Modeler (aka Clementine) ten years ago. Predictive analytics is now sitting under the trendy umbrella of AI. Curious to see how we’re meant to use these insights as UX Architects. (It’s what this talk at #UXLive
ese79: Why... Everyone who truly knows me knows that I am fundamentally shy, socially awkward, and more of a listener. So when I got to meet Dita, I didn’t have the verbal fluidity to tell her how she is one of a tiny handful of people that I look up to. Never b

ese79: Having fun with the next generation. The one who’s taller than me now was reaching my knee when we met. And the other was just a big bulge in her mom’s belly. It’s really cool to watch them grow up, and eye-opening to take them to museums. Turns out panel
