Yesterday I started walking from Prenzlauer Berg, all the way to Postdamer Platz. When I was crossing the Museum Island, I noticed the Humboldt-Box and remembered that I had never been there before, so I decided to make a short stop. This temporary construction, created by the Humboldt Foundation, serves as an exhibition space and viewing platform for the Berlin Palace - Humboldt Forum reconstruction project.

It has been a while since the last time I published any picture in this European photoblog. I have been travelling in Asia, so most of the pictures I have been taking are published now in the Breaksian Career Break blog. Nevertheless, I'm currently on a break from the break, spending Xmas with my girlfriend.

Today we felt like doing some exercise so we took our bikes and rode all the way to Augusta Raurica, a Roman archaeological site and an open-air museum, located around 17 km away from Basel. We passed by Aeschenplatz, St. Jakob, Muttenz, Pratteln, and Augst where this complex is located. It is possible to visit an Amphitheatre, a forum, a Roman museum, and a Roman house that displays reconstructions showing the typical life during that era.

I'm in Dublin this week finishing some paperwork I need to sort out before I start my Asian Career Break. Probably this is going to be my last post in this European photoblog for a little while. For obvious reasons, I won't be taking and posting many European pictures in the coming months.

A couple of weeks ago we attended a wedding in La Peralada, Catalonia, a small town very close to Figueres. Since we needed to rent a car to get to this place, we booked some days off to visit some of the places recommended by our Catalan friends.
