Why Coursera/Udemy/Open University/edX

Every scrap matters - even if it is about languages
My native language is Hungarian. I think I use it accurately and as I was doing loads of lectures during the last 35 years in front of different size of the audience - from 12 in the architect studio till 300 in a big auditorium hall - I learned some techniques too. Also, I wrote several books about architecture and eco-conscious design. So I hope my Hungarian works both in writing and speaking.

Not that bad - although you have to prepare yourself
I am re-reading some books. One was the two volumes diary of Gyarmati Fanni (wife of the poet Miklos Radnoti) written between 1937-1946. Published after she died, according to her wish. Very much ‘quarantine like’ life.
Not in Scotland
From skirt to bag - tartan and leather
Long weekend in Dundee: visited the new V&A (see: https://www.vam.ac.uk/dundee ), enjoyed the rich street art ( http://openclosedundee.co.uk/city-centre ), went for a stroll to the Kingussie area.
Bergen, May, 2018
I really like the Scandinavian - or Nordic - landscape, even though it is usually considered to be “cold”. The wide, bright sky always impresses me. Or on the contrary, the grey, dark clouds are fascinating to me as well.
