  1. Infodesk

    July 28, 2002 by Gail

    Back from a morning shift at the HI-Vancouver Jericho Beach Hostel infodesk, which went later than usual. I think trying to organize things are easier when there are two people on, because I was answering questions and all the brochures were piled up on the desk, on top of the stuff I needed to answer questions! What a mess!

    I’m happy to be back at the infodesk, because I like the challenge… it’s a part I miss from the days of working in the youth hostel system. It reminds me of travelling, and while I’m not travelling, at least I can do it vicariously.

  3. First Post!

    Oh my. My first entry. It’s the dead of night, and I have decided to set up a blog site because I have been a terrible e-mailer and I have lost track of what I’ve told what to who about what I am doing these days. Obviously I should be doing something a lot more constructive, like writing my paper on the Cuban film “Strawberry and Chocolate”. I liked the film, I’m just an incurable procrastinator. I can’t seem to write unless I’m suffering from severe sleep deprivation or it’s within 24 hours of when the paper is due. I need therapy!
