But first, Afternoon Tea

04:38

During Easter Break, it took me awhile to figure out where to bring my family to when they were about to visit me in London, but nothing can be more English than a cup of earl grey tea and an afternoon tea. We also went to Sky Garden on top of the 20 Fenchurch Street building. It was relatively small but the view was amazing.

Places:

Muriel's Kitchen (South Kensington Station)

The Caramel Room @ The Berkeley Hotel

St. James's Park

Along the Coast Line

05:05

It was raining while my family and I were walking from the Birling Gap tourist centre towards the coast. I was afraid we wouldn't be able to see the stunning view like what I'd imagined after doing some research beforehand. Just like London, the weather here was unpredictable. One minute, it showered and quickly changed into a bright sunshine. The photos I took in just 20 minutes look so much different from each other.

We decided to take the walking route that didn't have access to the coast in front of the Seven Sisters cliff, as we alternatively chose to have a view from the top of another hill so that we could oversee the whole picture of Seaford. The scene was amazing and breathtaking. If I had a chance to come here again, I'd definitely try another route, as I've seen stunning photos of tourists posing beside the white stones, very surreal and very beautiful.

It was a day trip from London to Eastbourne. The commuting part was a bit tiring considering sitting in the train for over an hour, then the bus, and the walking. The time we spent actually appreciating the scenery was probably less than an hour. I'd recommend you to spend a night at Brighton, which is also a big city comparing to London, and explore the city as well to save up some energy during your trip.

Location: Seaford, East Sussex, UK

Smooth as Silk

14:30

At the beginning of the year, it was expected that I work on the class project during winter break. My project theme was about color and so there wasn't much plan behind this shoot. Basically, just colors and a taste of Thai culture. It was a good thing my mom owns a lot of bright silk garment that I could borrow her for the model, who's one of my old friends since primary school.

Hopefully, this beautiful backdrop would make Bangkok a must-go destination for anybody.
