Geneva Graffiti - Take 2

I have just a few more photos to share but not enough really on the account of a busted ankle. Going to Manchester and Berlin this summer so maybe the collection will be extended


I have a soft spot for these ones. Found on a street that I used to take every day going to shool and that I visited recently again.

This is the most elaborate graffiti I came across. It's on the wall of a squatted house in Eaux-Vives. I cannot believe that a gang member dared overwrite on it. Sacrilege!


Another one in the same street, not quite the same register but really fun! One of my favourite so far!


A few more will be coming this way soon.

Good Sunday all!

Geneva Graffiti - Part 1 of many I hope

Hello all,

As a response to my friend Chris' blog graffiti stories, I thought I would share some of Geneva's fun graffiti here too.

I will try to upload a few a week now that I have a proper camera on my new phone.

Here the first two shots, captured just round the corner from University in the Plainpalais area.

Back online - and it's about time!

Some of you might have heard that I was battling with my hosting provider after months of not being able to post here. It is FINALLY resolved!

I had cervical osteoarthritis and severe pain in my neck and right arm. The prodecure I went through is called "Cloward's procedure". The disk between my C5/C6 vertebrae was removed, the bone spurs closing the spinal canal also and the disk replaced by a carbon box.

It spent a week in hospital and now started my recup time (could be up to 6 weeks off work). I will keep you guys posted here.
