I arrived back in Basel yesterday, after spending ten absolutely fantastic days in Scotland with M\u00e4rrie (plus celebrating her birthday with her family in Germany). Such an amazing country – simply stunning landscapes, fascinating history and friendly people. I’ve posted to the travel log<\/A> a couple of times and will post some photos one of these days (when the madness of settling back in has calmed down). Also, M\u00e4rrie posted a bit about why I’m the best navigator in the world and other things of interest<\/a> in her LiveJournal. *g*<\/p>\n

Now I’m trying to sort out what needs to be done after my absence. I need to finish my fieldwork paper (which needs some serious revisions, as I’m sure my editors have noticed) and there’s still the open question of my internship. The European Parliament sent a refusal (apparently they don’t need anthropologists this year, which doesn’t really surprise me) – but I haven’t heard anything from UNESCO. Now, that’s really annoying, seeing that I’ve applied for September. But searching their website for information, I found this: <\/p>\n

If your application is of interest to the Secretariat, you will receive a proposal for an internship within four months.<\/i><\/p>\n

I never really read this carefully before – and now I can’t help thinking that this sounds as if they only contact you if you’re accepted. So that’d mean I can forget about it, because the four months are up – or am I reading too much into it? Opinions?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
