victoria, bc

picture from the ferry. oh, how i do love the majestic landscape.


a loft building i adore.
chinatown, victoria has lots of brick buildings.
i love this sort of 'corridor' between the back of several buildings.

inspiration for textiles? a yarn store has given a bicycle a new skin. it certainly got my attention, i had to walk in.

after returning from new york i had to spend a few days in the office playing catchup with paperwork, and some other urgent matters. then i spent april 2-4th with a good good friend of mine in victoria, bc. i loved this trip! we spent lots of time around china town, an area i grew very fond of. there are lots of interesting people and things happening here. it feels like a cleaned up version of gastown, vancouver. (i really feel that gastown has the potential to be one of the most interesting areas of vancouver. but before that can really happen solutions have to be found for the homeless. several projects have been established to change the area (woodwards being one of the best known). more and more cool spots seem to be flocking to gastown: acme cafe, everything cafe, and several furniture stores)
