Portugal Day2

Portugal, Day2. (yes, it’s confusing but switch your brain!) It was the first day of the event, OFFF. There was a long queue in the morning! After waiting a lot, finally we went inside the place. There were some interactive installation, and, Microsoft was showing their interactive campus and “Surface”. Opening talk was by Neville Brody. (I didn’t know he was alumni of LCC…) But actually I don’t remember what he talked… Well, how things were organised was not so good, the sound was not so good… The first day was a bit disappointing. But the dinner we had at […]

Switzerland Day1

Now it’s Switzerland! It’s the first experience for me to travel around again and again in such a short period. Actually it was a field trip of the course but some of us went there a few days earlier. Taking a flight from Gatwick, it took only 1.5hours to Zurich. So close! We rent a car and travelled around. The first place we went was Luzern. It was such a beautiful city with lots of European buildings around the lake. Walking on Kapellbrücke, having a dinner, eating ice cream, we left the city and headed for Interlaken. It was a […]

Places I haven’t been before

Although it’s been for a while since I came to London, there are still lots of places I haven’t visited. They are two of them. Primark 😛 and St. Paul’s Cathedral. My image of Primark is cheaper Uniqlo. But they have more different designs than simple Uniqlo, so it’s fun to look around. But I had never bought anything because it always looked so crowded! But I’m going to Spain this week and wanted to buy some small things, so joined the friends going shopping there. Wow…everything was so nice price. To be honest, I don’t know about its quality…but […]

Liverpool!

Although it’s been more than 2 weeks already, I went to Liverpool with friends! It was just the date of the Beatles Week, and Matthew Music Festival, so it was soooo difficult to book accommodation. Fortunately I could find a B&B and a-not-so-cheap-hotel in last minutes. I went there by Mega Bus but it was not so comfortable… But 30 pounds for return. It’s so cheap. 6 hours journey… At the first night, we went to Matthew Street, listened to lots of the beatles songs played by lots of bands, at Cavern Pub and Cavern Club. It looked the audience […]

Winsor Castle! (Day3)

It’s the 3rd day. I started to feel like I wanted to go out for sight-seeing. For some reasons I had to stay at the Park Inn, so I decided to go to Winsor Castle, which I heard it was close to Heathrow. I knew nothing about it other than “it’s the Queen’s residence”. No map. No internet means no information. I went to Heathrow anyway expecting trains from there. At first I went to the central bus station near to Terminal 1/2/3, but was told to go to Terminal 5. And at Terminal 5, I finally found out that […]

A short trip to Korea 1 / Airport to Hotel

It was the first time I went to Korea♪ Although it was a quite short trip as 2nights-3days, I enjoyed it so much! So I would write about it today. Well, what is convenient is that the flight departs from Haneda airport! This is soooo good. Especially I can use Keikyu line which goes to the airport directly. The flight was at 15:30 so I could stay at home until noon despite I was going to overseas! And the flight time is short as well. It took only about two hours to Gimpo airport. At the airport, a tour-guide who […]
