our latest guests

i moved inside from my nice morning on the back patio as the sky threatened, yet again, to downpour. it's been sunny then breezy then sunny then chilly, and it's got that feel of rain now. so i sit here, procrastinating on beginning my choreographic exploration for the day, and i thought - what better thing to do than make an entry! i should introduce our latest house guests!

two couch surfing graffiti artists from australia, ben and daniel, have joined us for three days. after already months on the road with camping gear on their backs, they're touring the better part of the netherlands to paint and explore. as i write, they're at the main graffiti wall - the bridge that separates our ghetto from downtown - and hopefully by this evening i'll have some photos to put up. we've also managed to convince them (it wasn't hard) to do something in our house. it's a medium jasmine and i don't dare try ... plus we like everyone who passes through to leave a little mark of their own.
