What a beautiful building. Sounds like a creative place for learning and for work!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Malin, the building and its surroundings are beautiful! I'd love to be working there. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for this excellent photo and description of your workplace - also nice to encounter another Australian on the blog. I also liked the links you added and checked them out - so now I know who I am 'speaking' to. The students much feel pleased to have someone with such depth of industry knowledge - and I imagine there are new things to learn all the time as technology changes so quickly
