We are in Sydney!

We came back in Sydney on 2nd February. We learned lots of things during this trip, also we got lots of things we would like to study.

This is one of them, the organic certificate label by USDA (United States Department of Agriculture). This label means the product is (or more than) "90% organic". However we don't get what "90% organic" means?
We will slowly start studying about these.

WWOOF

In Honaunau-Napoopoo we are staying, in Hawaii, we found a great organization of WWOOF.

From their website:
WWOOF is a world wide network of organisations.
We link volunteers with organic farmers, and help people share more sustainable ways of living.
WWOOF is an exchange - In return for volunteer help, WWOOF hosts offer food, accommodation and opportunities to learn about organic lifestyles.
WWOOF organisations link people who want to volunteer on organic farms or smallholdings with people who are looking for volunteer help.

Our host, Steve, is a member of WWOOF too.

Another organic farm we purchased a bag of fresh leaf mix. She picked fresh leaves from the garden for us.

EAMES

EAMES office sign in Los Angeles.

We watched a movie "EAMES:The Architect and the Painter" in New York. Another movie "Objectified trailer", we watched it in San Francisco, also talks some about EAMES. Then we decided to visit EAMES office and EAMES house in Los Angeles.

The office (show room and exhibition) is old style but inspiring for us.

CREATIVITY EXPLORED

A gallery, studio and shop, the next door to NEEDLES & PENS. They support the artists with developmental disabilities. We purchased some small pictures on cardboard. We love them and will frame them after we get back to Sydney.

NEEDLES & PENS

We found a cute shop named "NEEDLES & PENS" in San Francisco. They have lots of art zines and cute crafts. We purchased a zine "STROM" by NIGEL PEAKE. The drawings on the shop windows are his artworks from his last show there.
