#np35mm

8:57 AM

This Chinese New Year, I stepped my foot in Europe for the first time in my life, with my first 35mm film camera.

Few months prior to this trip, I was looking at some flight tickets for my runaway trip and I came across this travel article about "cities for art lovers". There are several cities mentioned there, but I chose these 2 destinations in the end, Vienna and Budapest. These cities always paired up because they're close to each other so it's easier to travel within borders. Luckily that I chose Aeroflot airlines because I got some layover in Moscow, so at least, even though it's only for a few hours, I can say that I'm in Russia haha. It was my very first long flight and also first time going this far by myself.

I'm not going to talk about my itineraries here but I'll just show you some pictures of what I've got during my trip.

The Official Conference picture

HELLO! Konnichiwaaa~
It's been a loooooong time ago since I blogged here. Sorry for neglecting you, baby :(
I was super busy this whole semester (well not really) and actually I don't know what to blog. Haha.
Well, now I come to think of it, I haven't told you guys that I went to Japan! WOOHOO!
Last month, on Spring, I went to Osaka to attend a conference. Another conference, I know right.
So, except going there to see presentations and those academic stuffs, I also did some sightseeing. And for the FIRST TIME IN FOREVEEEER, I was travelling ALONE. Yes, ALONE! It was a wonderful, brand new experience for me. I will definitely do it again!

Here are some quick tips (from me) for those who want to travel alone:
1. THROW AWAY everything that make you attached and not enjoying the trip, especially PHONE (even your parents or boy/girlfriend)! It's better to not have free internet connection everywhere (coz it's pretty hard to find in Japan) so you can experience and see new things in that country.
2. Learn a few basic phrases (on that country's language) to survive. At least you know how to ask the price, order food, point this and that, also ask where the TOILET is.
3. Take as many pictures as you can. Everything surrounds you is different from where you came from.
4. Seriously, shopping is not the main point here. Focus on the culture, the streets, foods, everything there. Experience new things by yourself.
5. Planned carefully where you want to go. Which bus to take, which subway line, which exit gate. Seriously, this is important. Otherwise, you'll got lost easily and no idea where to go.

I won't write everything here because it might be as long as a short novel :p

BUSAN S/S 2014 (Not a Fashion Week)

11:01 PM

Well, HELLO EVERYBODY!

How are you doing? It's been *hmm* how long is it? 2 months? Aih.. it's been a long time eh?

So! Since I'm not in the mood to write my research paper (yes I have to finish this paper before August 1st but what the hell), I decided to have some recaps for my 4months life in Busan. It's basically few highlights and I SERIOUSLY MISSED MY FRIENDS! gahd i'm going mad now. OK relax.

International Students Dinner Gathering
This time, I made quite A LOT of International friends. My roommate is a Thai girl, whom I'm not really close with and didn't talk much (coz she have a boyfriend already) but she's OK. Then my best friends here are mostly Malays and one tiny Pinoy (Philippines). And then there are few foreigner friends too such as Germans, one Brazilian, one Colombian, Thais, Chinese, and of course, Indonesians. Well I'm quite satisfied with my networking power HAHA.


My two 동생
It's so nice living in 4-seasons country like Korea. Can you imagine how desperate I am to see cherry blossom, maple leaf, and snow right? Aigooo.. oops! Sorry. Well, yeah, I kinda happy that I can experience all of it. 

Another visit to Jinhae during Cherry Blossom Festival
Gamcheon Trip
One more reason I like about Korea is the cultural site. I can't believe that the time we went for the Gamcheon trip, my Korean friend (my group leader) said that this Gamcheon area is a bit similar to Santorini in Greece. How could this possible, a Korean small town looks like somewhere in Europe? Santorini is in Europe right? Correct me if i'm wrong. See, almost everywhere in Korea is so full of culture things and feel so artsy. I can't feel happier than this. 



And of course, BEACH!
It's my first time too, spending almost 70% of the WORLD CUP 2014 moments here in Busan with my friends. We stayed up almost everyday (well not everyday. mostly it's either Brazil or German or any other great teams match) and play drink games. HAHA. so YOLO right?

WORLD CUP 2014!
 I went to Seoul again, this time with my Pinoy sister. We spent 4 nights 5 days (?) and travel around. Seriously, this trip was AMAZING! It was sooooooo fun and thrilling because we got the chance to go to DMZ. WOW!
Some highlights of our Seoul trip


Oh! It's quite a long post eh? Well, I seriously missed these guys super duper much. Au revoir guys! I'm ready for the next seasons, Fall/Winter!

Adios! Ciao~
