Phnom Penh

A step in the right direction

This is the case for me right now.
Over 15 months ago I went on a selection course, now i've been in Cambodia for a week staying in Phnom Penh. Tomorrow I move to Takmau till August.
That little step of filling out a 5 minute application form has led to this great journey. What if i'd have woke up in a different mood, or I had gone out that day instead of browsing the Internet... where would I be now?
The thought is crazy.
But I am happy here, and I can tell it's going to be great.

Last Day in Belfast

Sometimes there's nothing better than a drizzly day in Northern Ireland :)

London Winter 13

So mid December my mum and I took a trip flying to Liverpool, driving to Ormskirk, back to Liverpool, down to Northampton, then down to London. Primarily for looking at Universities, London was a jolly.

First thing we did in London was the London Eye, did we buy a guide for £10 to 'spot' things as we were going round, no. Did we spot things? Yes. Don't buy it, theres a guide in the actual pod anyway.

The views were great, London looked beautiful.

That night we went to see Les Mis in the West End, Les Mis is myabsolute favourite. I could talk about it forever but I won't. Absolute favourites were the guy who played Monsieur Thenardier, he was the understudy as well and absolutely fab. Eponine, played by Carrie Hope Fletcher - top performance. In terms of stage production, great. Swift changes of scene, loved the use of the rotating turn table thing. Good Job Les Mis.

The next day was shoppppppppping day. Mum sat in a Cafe while I had a browse around Oxford Street. Got bored then we went to London Bridge. I quite like history so this was interesting.

This is the Traitors Gate, originally the River Thames came right up to it and prisoners were brought through to be tried/executed. Anne Boleyn was sailed through here to her death, heads of recently executed prisioners were on pikes so the next victims could see as they were sailed through. Grim

This is Oban as viewed from a boat. It is a beautiful little town on the west coast of Scotland which is the main ferry point to get to the Hebredian Islands.
