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.

Hoan Kiem Lake



Hoan Kiem Lake, which I think is the corruption of the mandarin 'huan qian', or the Lake of Returning Sword isn't anywhere close to the West Lake in Hangzhou or the Mountain Resort lake of Chengde. It can't compare in terms of size and is definitely not as beautiful. That said, it has its own charm as the converging point of many people: locals and tourists alike: strolling, walking, jogging or sitting by its banks.
