Hello welcome to my Blog

Mezze is widely served in the Greek and Middle eastern world. An assortment of little dishes and tasters which accompany a nice ouzo or a glass of wine. So when you read mezze moments you will have tasty snippets of life as I live it, India for four years and now Brisbane Australia, all served up with some Greek fervour and passion.

Exchanges with Friends that stay through the day.




I was trying to explain to a friend what it is like living here.

“It is a differently wired me that wakes up every morning here”….I said

“Let’s talk about the wiring and the need for new circuitry”. she said



Another friend called in a French handyman for a repair job. He admired her tiles.

She asked him why they were of interest to him.

“Oh" he said it is my dada”, my passion

I loved her idea that “Everyone needs a dada”.


A friend was comparing what she thought it was going to be like living in India compared to what it is like. The two were far apart. I said :

Reality here seems to unravel in a wholly unexpected form and what you gaily assumed you could do standing on your head is no longer the case. We have resolved not to stop doing headstands .

A friend sent me pictures of her walks in the White face Mountain in the Adirondacks,NY.
I am envious of the colours and change of seasons so I asked her if I could share them with you.

  1. Oh Marina. Today I forgot to strive to keep attempting headstands. I gave in to the frustrations and forgot about our conversation.

    Tomorrow ... I promise ... I will keep working on perfecting the headstand - or at least continue to try!
