The pigeon in the morning

For the reason I only have my 4s with me, taking picture of bird by zooming is never a good option and I won’t do that. That’s why I always talk with them in a bird language :P. It goes something like this *hey, please stay there, I wanna take pictures of you, don’t fly away* then I walked up and do the shots. Glad they he/she did stay. 🙂
May be people here are so kind that birds get used to them already I think.

So my advice of the day: don’t scare the birds or anyone you love because you will lose something great.

Early cherry blossom in Japan

I was working my way out with Google map as I was following its direction. It is funny how it put me to walk all around the university in a criss cross way while it was actually possible to walk in straight direction in less time instead. Yet, amidst this I found some cheery blossom trees today, so I will forgive u again Gmap..

And I don’t know what quote to put today so let’s make one myself:
– No matter where you are, I hope you’d find me in spring. –

Rice field in Cambodia

A common view like this can be seen all over the country during rainy season.

*To my mind, the greatest reward and luxury of travel is to be able to experience everyday things as if for the first time, to be in a position in which almost nothing is so familiar it is taken for granted.* – Bill Bryson-

Fishing at Arakawa

The park at Arakawa in Tokyo is quite stunning in spring because one of my favorite color green is everywhere. And he saw me going around him taking pictures and he asked *are you on vacation?*

*Sitting quietly, Doing fishing, Spring comes, and the grass grows by itself.* -The Zen Proverb- actually it says *doing nothing* but I prefer fishing because he was.

Playing with bubbles on a sunny day

Good morning! It’s time to play with bubbles!

P.S it’s freely made and blown at a park in Tokyo as i saw it, but I’m not gonna tell which park. Guess where?

Islands visit as a foreigner in her own land

A corner view of one island in Sihanouk Province, Cambodia.

P.S: we rented this boat for the whole day for around 20-30 USD and it took us to lots of beautiful islands all around. We also saw some coral reefs. The atmosphere was quite refreshing, so we got a fantastic vacation.

Today’s quote: “The whole object of travel is not to set foot on foreign land; it is at last to set foot on one’s own country as a foreign land.” – G. K. Chesterton-

One of Nagano’s ski resort

One fine day, weather was just perfect for a snowboarding from the mountain top. So go with the flow and let the ride goes on.. yeah, snowboarding. 🙂 That small little village lies there peacefully awaiting visit from people of curious minds. Couldn’t feel more pleased.
