Spent two hours walking a circuit through Old City this morning and photographed about 200 shop signs. Pics later after I get them out of the camera.

A nice café sign in Haifa, "Mishwar" in Arabic and English (generally a trip or errand, but apparently has other meanings as well), and "kafih" as café in Arabic (instead of literary "maqhah")

Knowers of , I need some feedback please. There is a paper titled "A LINGUISTIC LANDSCAPE ANALYSIS OF PATTAYA, THAILAND’S SIN CITY" and I want to do a sort of replication, but not Sin City. The opposite. Think Snooze City. More grandpa than gangster. I'm thinking Hua Hin as the anti-Pattaya. Is that right?

It’s Ludwik Zamenhof’s (1859-1917) 163th birthday today 💚 To celebrate, I decided to pay a visit to Berlin’s Esperantoplatz in Berlin-Neukölln.

PS: There’s also a Zamenhofpark in Berlin-Lichtenberg, but that was a bit too far away.

@bgainor @yEvb0 Just walked by the location. The food court is closed, replaced with a ghost kitchen.

The things I find most interesting are Japanese: the line break in "Mas-Hita" and the katakana under Butterfish!

Came across this amazing street art near Haifa Port; "Fingaz Railways" apparently harks back to the days of the Hejaz Railway. For more about this piece and its creators, the Broken Fingaz Crew and calligraphy artist Ahmad Zoabi, see: nocamels.com/2019/09/railways-
