Great to have arrived in Wellington and on the Airport Express bus en route to @ACRN_SOAC #soac2023. I seem to have brought along a plane load of @RMIT_CUR colleagues. Its a cliche but: youtu.be/a4xNdyVPDJQ?si=psGx…

Enjoying lovely provocation & intimate reflection by @KathyMee10 & #MichelleDuffy on what it means to traverse the Australian outback by train for conferences. The talk cuts across many threads; work mobility, sticky #care and mobility/ immobility, #carbon impact & #ClimateChange

Wellington has a lot of wood housing. The second largest wooden building in the world (until 1998) now houses the VUW law school, down by the parliamentary precinct.

Also, Wellington is a national capital, around the same population as Canberra, thus hosts large public service, but also has a wider economic base, eg port linked to regional production.
