Day 31 Paris

Nice to be back in civilization. Breakfast! Coffee! Not cold!  Sat and practised for most of the day. That felt really good. Continued with the Bach suites, which (I have to admit) I haven’t worked on much since the last…

Day 29 Bristol

Bristol – the city with its own scale (google it).  Bread, cheese, meats, fruit, water, sodas. Are we still in the UK? This is already 100% better than yesterday. No coffee, but we have that on the bus. And the…

Day 22 Madrid

I’m so happy I don’t drink anymore. Woke up and felt normal. Whereas someone else on the bus (not in our band/crew) drank himself into a stupor last night and made ”a bit of a mess” upstairs. I have done…
