(The building where I had been sleeping has external cavity walls made of terra cotta blocks and cork insulation.) I chose a room that faces both north (highly insulated external wall made of straw bales and earth plaster) and south (massive internal wall of raw earth blocks that faces the greenhouse). The one thing I noticed was that the unheated dormitory was as warm as the little house that was being heated. &lt;span style="color:#cccccc;"&gt;Per la mia ultima settimana a Panta Rei, ho chiesto se potrei dormire nel dormitorio per provare com'è a dormire in un edificio fatto con la terra e paglia. (La casa dove dormivo ha muri perimetrali fatti con laterizi forati e sughero granulare.) Ho scelto una stanza che ha un muro a nord (con buon isolamento fatto con le balli di paglia e l'intonaco in terra) e un muro a sud (massivo, retrostante alla serra, fatto con i blocchi in terra cruda). Una cosa che ho notato era che il dormitorio con il riscaldamento ancora non accesso ha una temperatura simile a la casa che era riscaldata.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6548396524037355817-6444291935083483103?l=kersteninumbria.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kersteninumbria.blogspot.com/feeds/6444291935083483103/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6548396524037355817&amp;postID=6444291935083483103' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6548396524037355817/posts/default/6444291935083483103'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6548396524037355817/posts/default/6444291935083483103'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kersteninumbria.blogspot.com/2008/09/sleeping-with-earth-and-strawdormendo.html' title='Sleeping with earth and straw...Dormendo con la terra e la paglia'/><author><name>Kersten Harries</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00208419547296918428</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SOMsRBQ3g1I/AAAAAAAABaM/OejA14LglW0/s72-c/IMG_0583.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6548396524037355817.post-4090708867216710406</id><published>2008-09-22T19:32:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2008-10-01T09:44:28.028+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Greenhouse Effect....L'effetto serra</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SOMn4OlIVvI/AAAAAAAABZ8/v0fk5UPPLZI/s1600-h/IMG_0902.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5252085437384120050" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SOMn4OlIVvI/AAAAAAAABZ8/v0fk5UPPLZI/s400/IMG_0902.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;The chilly fall weather has arrived here.  Hence the reeds that had been providing shade in the greenhouse corridors were removed to let the full sunlight in.  The temperature inside the greenhouse was stunning, a true testiment to its effectiveness.  The heating was still not turned on in the building, and yet it felt like it was thanks to the passive heating occuring in this zone, where sunlight pours in and whose heat is asborbed by the massive raw earth block wall and stone paving which is then released slowly later.  &lt;span style="color:#cccccc;"&gt;Il tempo qui è diventato freddino.  Le cane che hanno provvisto l'ombra per le serre erano tolte per permettere che più sole entra.  La temperatura dentro della serra era incredibile, una vera testimonianza a la sua efficienza.  Il riscaldamento non era ancora accesso però sembrava che fosse accesso grazie al riscaldamento passivo che succede in questa zona della serra dove il sole entra e il suo calore è asorbito dai muri d'accumulo e il pavimento in pietre che dopo rilasciano il calore lentamente.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6548396524037355817-4090708867216710406?l=kersteninumbria.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kersteninumbria.blogspot.com/feeds/4090708867216710406/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6548396524037355817&amp;postID=4090708867216710406' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6548396524037355817/posts/default/4090708867216710406'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6548396524037355817/posts/default/4090708867216710406'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kersteninumbria.blogspot.com/2008/09/greenhouse-effectleffetto-serra.html' title='Greenhouse Effect....L&apos;effetto serra'/><author><name>Kersten Harries</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00208419547296918428</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SOMn4OlIVvI/AAAAAAAABZ8/v0fk5UPPLZI/s72-c/IMG_0902.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6548396524037355817.post-8524043959388703532</id><published>2008-09-21T22:49:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2008-09-23T18:55:13.224+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Houses of earth...in Abruzzo...Case di terra</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/kersteninumbria/Abruzzo"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5249258836427875922" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SNkdGZddJlI/AAAAAAAABZU/gq1ELcHQaQk/s320/IMG_0815.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#333333;"&gt;This weekend I was in Casalincontrada, Abruzzo for a conference/festival regarding earth construction.

The surface to which the plaster was applied was first painted with a water and earth mixture. We had one piece of wood that was projecting out from the wall a bit, so we disguised it by creating a form of snake with the plaster. We were inspired by a real snake that we'd seen coming down from the roof of the wood workshop. &lt;span style="color:#cccccc;"&gt;Dopo che i pallet erano riempieti con la terra e paglia abbiamo creato una mescolanza piu densa di terra e acqua a cui abbiamo aggiunto la paglia a mano per fare l'impasto utlizzato per la prima strata di intonaco. La superficie a cui l'intonaco e' applicato era bagnato prima con una tintura di terra e acqua. Abbiamo avuto un pezzo di legno che usciva del muro un po', cosi l'abbiamo nascosto creando la forma di un serpente nell'intonaco.

This time we used a hybid technique, combinding the use of the pallets with formwork. First we made a liquidy mixture of earth and water. We tested its density by pouring 100mL to see if it created a circle around 20cm in diameter. Then we added straw by hand and let it sit for a minimum of six hours. We then painted the pallets with earth and water mixture before putting the bathed straw in between the pallets and the adjacent furniture, working in horizontal layers. &lt;span style="color:#cccccc;"&gt;Questa settimana con tre volontari abbiamo lavorato su un'altro muro della falegnameria. Questa volta abbiamo usato una tecnica ibrida combinando l'uso del pallet con quella della cassaforma. Prima abbiamo fatto un'impasto liquido con la terra e aqua nella molazza. Abbiamo fatto una prova della densita' versando 100mL su un vetro per vedere se faceva un circo con un diametro di circa 20cm. Dopo abbiamo aggiunto la paglia a mano e abbiamo lasciato questa miscela per un minimo di sei ore. Prima di metterela fra i pallet ed i mobili in strate orizzontali abbiamo bagnato i pallet con terra e acqua.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6548396524037355817-7003201172330885613?l=kersteninumbria.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kersteninumbria.blogspot.com/feeds/7003201172330885613/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6548396524037355817&amp;postID=7003201172330885613' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6548396524037355817/posts/default/7003201172330885613'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6548396524037355817/posts/default/7003201172330885613'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kersteninumbria.blogspot.com/2008/09/formwork-hybridcassaforma-ibrida.html' title='Formwork Hybrid...Cassaforma Ibrida'/><author><name>Kersten Harries</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00208419547296918428</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6548396524037355817.post-3052831411610550533</id><published>2008-09-05T18:29:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2008-09-07T19:25:51.638+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Creative painting...Tinteggiatura creativa</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SMQDyr-kLSI/AAAAAAAAAwc/ZQvpzC6Mg0U/s1600-h/IMG_0369.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5243320035499584802" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SMQDyr-kLSI/AAAAAAAAAwc/ZQvpzC6Mg0U/s320/IMG_0369.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5243324269663674338" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SMQHpJd83-I/AAAAAAAAAws/nMeFDb4CyjY/s320/IMG_0383.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5243326731338406018" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SMQJ4b68WII/AAAAAAAAAw0/vCmirWzNnDQ/s320/IMG_0384.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;These photos show the painting of the western wall of the large gathering room to which I had repaired the cracks using the lime and ground brick mix. As is common, it is practically impossible to match the color of the wall exactly so it is necessary to paint on top to cover the multiple repairs made. Originally we were going to repaint the whole wall with earth paint, though we decided to limit our painting to keep as much of the existing wall with its lovely rosy ground brick color. I came up with a scheme which involved painting around the windows and doors in a earth and ground brick mix, and then between painting a mountain profile with earth paint. &lt;span style="color:#cccccc;"&gt;Queste foto mostrano la tinteggiatura del muro ovest della sala grande a qui ho riparato le crepi con l'impasto di calce e cocciopesto. Come di solito, e' quasi impossible a ricreare lo stesso colore del muro esistente, e' necessario a tinteggiare sopra le riparazioni. Prima abbiamo pensato di tinteggiare tutto il muro con la terra, pero' dopo abbiamo deciso di solo tinteggiare dove ho riparato, per conservare il piu' possibile del colore esistente.

These photos show the mixing and application of the plaster.  &lt;span style="color:#cccccc;"&gt;Quando sono ritornata ho cominciato di lavorare con i volontari sul l'ultimo progetto a Panta Rei: creando muri esterni nel capanno della legnameria per convertirsi a aule.  Il metodo di costruzione e' a creare una struttura secondaria di legno (di pallet), riempiendola con la paglia, e' alla fine mettendo un'intonaco di terra e paglia.

First, I was having problems with this corner because two different kinds of plaster meet, and the one which included brick dust was especially dry and powdery on the surface, meaning that it was hard to get my new earth plaster to stick to it.  After dampening well the area I was trying to apply to (to eliminate the extra powder), I was then able to work the earth plaster that I had previousy applied to fill the new cracks and stick better...all using the damp cloth.  &lt;span style="color:#cccccc;"&gt;Ho imparato che un panno bagnato puo' essere molto utile per fare le riparazioni.  Prima ho avuto problemi con questo angolo perche' due tipi diversi di intonaco si incontrano, e uno e' fatto con coccio pesto e era particolarmente polveroso sulla superficie, significando che il nuovo intonaco no si attacava bene.  Dopo di bagnare bene la superficie per eliminare il polvere ho potuto anche rilavorare il materiale che avevo applicato prima per riempire le crepe nuove e si e' attacato molto meglio...e tutto questo ho fatto solo con un panno poco bagnato.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6548396524037355817-5424201243956242882?l=kersteninumbria.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kersteninumbria.blogspot.com/feeds/5424201243956242882/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6548396524037355817&amp;postID=5424201243956242882' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6548396524037355817/posts/default/5424201243956242882'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6548396524037355817/posts/default/5424201243956242882'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kersteninumbria.blogspot.com/2008/07/power-of-waterpoter-dellacqua.html' title='Power of water...Poter dell&apos;acqua'/><author><name>Kersten Harries</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00208419547296918428</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp2.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SH4oOCx69eI/AAAAAAAAAhg/EmHp_Hs4JQo/s72-c/IMG_3892.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6548396524037355817.post-164144391824786982</id><published>2008-07-14T18:29:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2008-07-16T18:54:15.150+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Perugia</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SH4lMNKyyHI/AAAAAAAAAhE/g0fnZjMEDqo/s1600-h/IMG_3857.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5223653509419944050" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SH4lMNKyyHI/AAAAAAAAAhE/g0fnZjMEDqo/s320/IMG_3857.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SH4lMYkbsuI/AAAAAAAAAhM/j9xCOILROsc/s1600-h/IMG_3865.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5223653512480273122" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SH4lMYkbsuI/AAAAAAAAAhM/j9xCOILROsc/s320/IMG_3865.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SH4lMhFEd0I/AAAAAAAAAhU/wDbMmCLF5og/s1600-h/IMG_3852.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5223653514764646210" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SH4lMhFEd0I/AAAAAAAAAhU/wDbMmCLF5og/s320/IMG_3852.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; I was able to join the group of kids who are at Panta Rei this week for their day trip to Perugia.

Here is the sketch I was using today as I took notes while surveying the buildings, color coded to identify the various wall types.  I also noted all cracks and holes that exist internally so that I can systematically tackle their repairs.  These are the two main buildings where groups are hosted and office and classrooms exist.  The house I live in is a third structure on site.  &lt;span style="color:#cccccc;"&gt;In questi giorni sto puliendo le piante in AutoCAD, per usarle come una legenda in cui identificero' i vari materiali e metodi utlizzati per costruire gli edifici a Panta Rei.  Qui c'e' lo schizzo che ho usato oggi per fare appunti mentre che facevo il rilievo, i vari colori representano le vari tipi di muri che esistono.  Ho anche notato tutti i crepi e bucchi che ci sono all'interno, cosi' posso continuare a riparareli in un modo sistematico.  Questi sono i due edifici principali dove i gruppi sono ospitati e ci sono gli uffici e le aule.  La casa dove abito e' una terza struttura sul sito.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6548396524037355817-1092806722355846804?l=kersteninumbria.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kersteninumbria.blogspot.com/feeds/1092806722355846804/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6548396524037355817&amp;postID=1092806722355846804' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6548396524037355817/posts/default/1092806722355846804'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6548396524037355817/posts/default/1092806722355846804'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kersteninumbria.blogspot.com/2008/07/surveyrilievo.html' title='Survey...Rilievo'/><author><name>Kersten Harries</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00208419547296918428</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp2.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SGvINtmz2vI/AAAAAAAAAW4/GwhhWjD1TIE/s72-c/IMG_3455.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6548396524037355817.post-9194647029058973543</id><published>2008-06-30T22:00:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2008-07-01T22:20:24.978+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Rings recovered...La fede trovata</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SGqOCE77LiI/AAAAAAAAAWU/QaszGrecegI/s1600-h/IMG_3359.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5218139284598107682" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SGqOCE77LiI/AAAAAAAAAWU/QaszGrecegI/s320/IMG_3359.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SGqOCZB2WyI/AAAAAAAAAWc/MDjzqkwVJx0/s1600-h/IMG_3371.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5218139289991666466" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SGqOCZB2WyI/AAAAAAAAAWc/MDjzqkwVJx0/s320/IMG_3371.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SGqOCxMTeoI/AAAAAAAAAWk/s_w7cESaAlo/s1600-h/IMG_3362.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5218139296477969026" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SGqOCxMTeoI/AAAAAAAAAWk/s_w7cESaAlo/s320/IMG_3362.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SGqOC1BnC9I/AAAAAAAAAWs/LcYogaOYzn8/s1600-h/IMG_3355.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5218139297506855890" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SGqOC1BnC9I/AAAAAAAAAWs/LcYogaOYzn8/s320/IMG_3355.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;This past weekend while I was in Florence I discovered that my engagement ring and wedding band were missing from my hand. I was in shock and distraught, and looked in every possible place. Thinking it possible that they may have slipped off when I was mixing the slip by hand, I began systematically sifting through the large container of slip, and in the process took out all gravel and stones that shouldn't be in it. After 8 hours of sifting, I greatfully came upon the rings. Lesson learned: do not wear any rings while working with mud!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;color:#cccccc;"&gt;Questo weekend mentre che ero a Firenze ho scoperto che avevo perso la mia fede. Ero molto triste e ho provato a trovarla in ogni posto che pensavo sia possibile. Pensando che fosse possibile che la avevo persa nella barbottina che avevo fatto l'altro giorno ho cominciato a cercare.  Mentre che la cercavo anche ho tolto la ghiaia che non dovrebbe essere. Dopo 8 ore la ho trovata! Ho imparato di non indossare gli anelli mentre che lavoro con la terra cruda.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

Half my time will be spent helping to organize and create something useful with these documents, for example a small publication. The other half of my time will be spent doing hands on work, mainly with earth stucco.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;color:#cccccc;"&gt;Eccoci...dove lavoro per adesso e il mio mestiere della prima settimana, vedere tutti questi vari documenti, disegni, e foto sulla storia e la costruzione di Panta Rei. Dopo devo proporre e discutire su che cosa vorrei infocare mentre che sono qui. Metà del mio tempo sarà utilizzato per organizzare e creare qualcosa utile con questi documenti, per espempio una piccola pubblicazione. L'altra metà del mio tempo sarà utilizzato per fare lavoro con le mie mani, principalmente con intonaco in base argilla.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6548396524037355817-4326312605994573296?l=kersteninumbria.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kersteninumbria.blogspot.com/feeds/4326312605994573296/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6548396524037355817&amp;postID=4326312605994573296' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6548396524037355817/posts/default/4326312605994573296'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6548396524037355817/posts/default/4326312605994573296'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kersteninumbria.blogspot.com/2008/06/first-workprimo-lavoro.html' title='First work...Primo Lavoro'/><author><name>Kersten Harries</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00208419547296918428</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp3.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SFfrwuvQk0I/AAAAAAAAABk/vHWInG7uVHI/s72-c/IMG_3035.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6548396524037355817.post-4006415240608349949</id><published>2008-06-16T19:18:00.006+02:00</published><updated>2008-06-17T19:48:49.289+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Just arrived...appena sono arrivata</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SFdiqwuM1tI/AAAAAAAAAAs/O5F9s7C-T5c/s1600-h/IMG_3024.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212743580477347538" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SFdiqwuM1tI/AAAAAAAAAAs/O5F9s7C-T5c/s320/IMG_3024.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; I arrived this afternoon at &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.pantarei-cea.it/"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;Panta Rei&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;, in Passignano sul Trasimeno, Umbria where I will be this summer to complete an internship for the Master's program in Sustainable Architecture that I&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SFdhDR2Dx0I/AAAAAAAAAAc/B8h0rfhQubg/s1600-h/IMG_3022.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; am enrolled in this year. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cccccc;"&gt;Sono arrivata questo pomeriggio a Panta Rei, a Passignano sul Trasimeno, in Umbria dove sarò quest'estate per fare lo stage che è parte del Master in Architettura Sostenibile che faccio quest'anno.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SFdirEWKO2I/AAAAAAAAAA0/U7MNc8Xlp2M/s1600-h/IMG_3032.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212743585745222498" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_Xbzp66UGOHQ/SFdirEWKO2I/AAAAAAAAAA0/U7MNc8Xlp2M/s320/IMG_3032.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;This is the building in which there are offices, meeting room, and kitchen.
