“May you always find new roads to travel, new horizons to explore, new dreams to call your own.” Author Unknown
Photography has been part of my life since I was a young child. This blog and my photography website, (http://marionmccristall.com) are a way for me to share my passion with those who pass my way.
I’m from Vancouver, Canada, and currently live in a small village in the municipality of Sintra, Portugal. I have the best of both worlds with country life to explore and the amazing city of Lisbon 45 minutes away. This gives me the opportunity to quench my thirst for knowledge and create a wide array of images. Travel plays an important part in my life as I love to visit other places near and abroad to capture what I call “life moments”. The sights and sounds and colours and textures found in other cultures increase my visual repertoire and inspire me.
Hopefully sharing NEAT things….experiences, thoughts, ideas, photos, and favorites that inspire me will give you a chance to think about Everything Neat that is in your life.

So happy that you have found some time to devote to this new blog. You definitely have the right title! I am sure that many others, including me will be eagerly awaiting each post!

P.S. Have any tasty vegetarian dishes in mind these days?
Very nice picture of you, looking forward to hearing LOTS more from you. I totally agree, learn and then learn somemore.
Hello,
As it turns out, I also took lessons from Noi about 10 years ago. I spent time with him and his family cooking and then celebrating his birthday.
Wonderful to see your post. Any chance you have any contact information for him?
take care,

Hi Dan,
What a small world! I wonder where you live.
I found this url for Noi’s school but the link doesn’t work from my computer. http://www.enjoythaifood.com/thaicookingcourses/nois_kitchen.php
The phone number listed is the same as the one on the little cookbook I received from him. All the best,
Marion
