Geetings from the beautiful Kyoto! The city of a thousand temples! Here I am standing in Arashiyama (Bamboo grove). Visiting this park truly took my breath away.

Looking up seems so obvious, yet so few really do it and actually see.
Your looking at the glorious construction of the King’s Cross station in London renovated by John McAslan + Partners and opened to public in March 2012.
Kent (South East England) is known as the garden of England and is truly a beauty- full with history and heritage. I have always wanted to visit the white cliffs of Dover and this past Sunday I finally did! The cliffs form part of the British coastline facing France and reaches up to 110 meters of hight. I have never visited a place this peaceful before. Would you just look at that beauty!
I still can’t get over the fact that I live less than 15 minutes from this beautiful landmark of Canterbury.
Here I am standing in front of the gate which takes you to the Canterbury Cathedral established in 597 and rebuilt between 1070-1077.
I am enjoying (finally) having time to discover the oh so lovely Canterbury. My new favourite place to have a coffee, lunch, read a book and write is at a new chocolate cafe located in the heart of the city of Canterbury. The view of the 1000 year old Canterbury Cathedral is astonishing.
Yesterday, while visiting the Victoria & Albert museum, I fell in love with these set of stairs. They are new and modern and fit perfectly in between the old brick walls of the museum.
I took a huge step out of my comfort zone and moved to the United Kingdom. I have been accepted at the University for the Creative Arts which is located in Canterbury, a district of Kent in South East England.
It feels like I have made the right choice. The University allows you to do the things you really love and explore your creative talents. Being a part of this creative and inspiring environment is very unique and motivating. I have already learned so much over the past four weeks. It feels amazing thinking of how much more I will learn and grow by the time I graduate as an architect (class of 2013).
Also, Canterbury is a lovely historic city. It’s skyline is dominated by a magnificent cathedral which is the oldest in England. Canterbury has a wide range of welcoming pubs and lovely restaurants. There is a great vibe every time I walk through the town.
So far I am having a great experience and I also perfectly fit into my new environment.
Below I have attached pictures I took of 5 highlights of the past 5 weeks:
