Reisebilder Australien (1): Wo ist hier?

Bin gerade in Australien, vorrangig für eine Tagung zum Thema Collective Creativity. Kurze Zwischenmeldung von der Bondi Beach in Sydney, gesprochen „Bonn-Dai-Bietsch”. Hätte gerne gewusst, what and where I am. Eine Bodenmarkierung von Bondi Beach told me: You are here. Schön, wie einfach das Leben manchmal sein kann. Erinnerte mich an das Album Wo ist hier? von Die Sterne und ihren Song Solangehierunterwegs:

Wir sind so lange hier
unterwegs
Wir sind so weit weg
Wo ist hier

Australien, Sydney, Bondi Beach, Juli 2009
