EVENTS OF GLOBAL INTEREST ongoing in Ann Arbor

Play the Bells in the Tower at Kerrytown:  Wednesdays & Fridays 12:00 Noon-12:30PM and Saturdays 10:30-11:00AM.  Play the charming melodies of the Kerrytown Chime - a seven-ton, world class musical instrument made up of 17 bells in a tower.  Choose from over 100 songs and follow the numbers to play the Kerrytown Chime.  All ages welcome, kids and adults.  Free.  LOCATION:  The Kerrytown Chime is accessed on the 2nd floor at Kerrytown Market and Shops, 407 N. Fifth Ave.  For more information:  ofglobal@aol.com, (734) 369-3107. 

The Himalayan Bazaar in my Garage:  If you are looking for gifts or other items from around the world (mostly from Nepal) give me a ring to set up an appointment for you and your friends to shop in the Bazaar anytime after December 9.  (734) 369-3107, ofglobal@aol.com.

The You Look So Much Younger Hair Salon (YLSMY HS):  I have started my own hair salon located in the bathroom in the winter and on my front porch in summer (inspired by barbers in Nepal who set up shop under a tree).  The YLSMY HS offers haircuts for $10.  Facials and other treatments with homemade beauty products are also available. Call the YLSMY HS for an appointment:  (734) 369-3107, ofglobal@aol.com.

Henna Hand Drawings:  Decorate your hands for the holidays.  Sign up for a lesson in henna, an all-natural, plant-based stain that leaves a temporary tattoo - drawings and designs in the palm of your hand.  The color (orange) lasts about a week+.  Good fun!  $25 an hour.  Heather (734) 369-3107, ofglobal@aol.com.

Wogging, Treks and Walking Business Meetings Around Town:  Fight the temptation to eat all winter and come wogging with me.  This is a cross between walking and jogging.  It is exactly what you do when it's really cold outside, you are carrying many bags and you are trying to get to your car as fast as possible.  I have many routes around town.  Maybe something is on your mind or you'd like to talk about -- your next trip to Nepal?  What about a walking business meeting?  Bring your colleagues along and discuss your goals and strategic plans for 2007.  I'll take notes (yes, while walking).  Tour guide, wogging coach, trekking/walking partner and/or secretarial fee $25 an hour.  :)  Heather - (734) 369-3107, ofglobal@aol.com.

The Of Global Interest Adventure Cleaning Squad:  I am fast, thorough and efficient.  You'll think an entire squad has been there!  Just me.  $25 an hour.  Heather - (734) 369-3107, ofglobal@aol.com.

Overnight Childcare / Slumber Parties at the Trekkers' Lodge B&B:  Slumber parties include all activities (many from which to choose), dinner and breakfast.  Two children, 5pm to 10am the next day, $150.  Groups negotiable.  Kids must be old enough to sleep in the guest room by themselves.  The Lodge can be rented during the day for birthday parties as well, at $40/hr.
