Kamogawa Artist

Am still working on that Japan trip post, even though it's been a half a year since I took that trip I want to stuff all the good snaps into one post, and that will require me to sift through some 2500 photos, edit them, and upload them.
In the meantime, here's the full image of the picture I use for my blog's banner. Taken early in the morning along the Kamogawa in Kyoto, Japan.

East Hastings

Snapped by my Japanese school. It was hard to believe while taking this picture that the centre of Vancouver's worst neighbourhood which is known for it's drug culture, homeless presence and violence, is just two blocks from where I was standing.

Happy Holidays!

Won't be posting for the next month-ish as I will be busy with all the holiday festivities that accompanies a large family, a ski trip, and preparing for a very full Spring semester.
Snapped in Downtown Vancouver at Granville Street.

Where I study

Last day of classes the other week. Enjoyed this past semester with my Chinese class, especially because I had this beautiful view from one of my classrooms.

Pigeons

Heading to Kintaro Ramen, a very busy little ramen shop in downtown Vancouver, for mid-day sustenance. Was waiting for the bus with a friend and came across a flock of pigeons chowing down on a dropped sandwich. In the 5 minutes that I was waiting at the stop, the sandwich had all but disappeared.
