To Market To Market

We have a small but burgeoning craft market scene in Singapore. It's difficult to go a month without having one organised by various outfits. While the markets are on the small side, there are always new vendors to discover, encourage and support. It's been so heartening to see some market stalls grow into actual, physical spaces like Small & Able (by HEY KUMO).

Today, I learned of a new market called BOLD: Bazaar of Learning Designers that will be staged from 20-21 August 2013 at the School of Design and Environment at the National University of Singapore. I had a quick peek at the Facebook page and I am intrigued! I am looking forward to steal a few moments off work and head out to campus for this.

Windowsill Pies

If you are looking for a place where Christmas is perpetual, look no further than Windowsill Pies. Because a pie a day keeps the sad doctor away.

Just A Minute, February 2013

Watching | Flower Boy Next Door. I made my way through 13 episodes of this show last Thursday to Sunday. I can't wait for the weekend to catch the last 3 episodes!

Reading | Empire of the Stars by Arthur I. Miller. Did you know that bombs were inspired by stars?

Listening | What Makes You Beautiful by One Direction. We played this song on the Kinect Just Dance 4 and were extremely tickled by the boyband dance moves!

Enjoying | Lazy Saturdays at Crazyworld Cafe. We are so depressed that our favourite cafe in the world is closing this Friday. We have been trying to spend every moment there possible and to eat our way through the menu before the doors come down for the final time. More pictures to come in another post.

Trying | To get my blogging editorial calendar organised. I have so many so many photographs to share and I really want to get a couple of columns up and running on a routine basis again.

How was your February? I would love to know!

Treasure Hill Details, Taipei 2012

I am striving to complete this Taiwan travelogue before the end of the year. I have only about 2 more posts left, let's hope I can make it!

Have a good end of the year, folks.

Treasure Hill Artist Village, Taipei 2012

If you enjoy clambering around, searching for hidden nooks and crannies, you are going to love Treasure Hill Artist Village. There is so much to discover! I left it too late and only arrived in the late afternoon when most of the artists' studios were closing or had closed. I heard there were also cafes in the area but I didn't see any. So much so much left to see.

I am quite disappointed with the grainy and gloomy quality of this film, ironically it's theKodak Ultracolour 400. I popped in the only 400ISO film I had with me, thinking that it would help combat the darkening sky but it seems like it wasn't enough. I look forward to going back there again in sunnier weather to capture more of the little details.
