Stop Press!

Trying to finish Cyprus trip. Four new videos uploaded into previous posts.

After trotting around Southeast Asia over the summer, I'm now back in the UK - Cambridge to be exact. Am trying my best to update as frequently as my clinical course will allow.

Entries on Italy and France two winters ago have been put on hold indefinitely. Read: possibly never. But we shall see.

Entries on Greece and Turkey last winter have also been put on hold for the time being.

Tsinghua University


Tsinghua University is like a city in itself. Cut off from the city by walls guarded by sentries at gates, the university bustles with university staff and students cycling along the roads from lecture halls back to their accommodations.


The newly constructed buildings contrast sharply with the old European-style buildings: remnants of the Old Summer Palace. The Little Forbidden Palace becomes the abode of the university's Master, its two giant lion statues guard the two red wooden doors.
