Check out the video below regarding my summer 2012 visit to Korea.
The program is through an organization called InKAS. The summer program is held every year in the May-August timeframe for about a week or so (our program was 10 days long).
I'm featured talking at 0:35 and at the 7:10 timestamp.
Greetings everyone! I am again sorry for the lack of updates to this blog but I have a brief one to bring to you now. I uploaded a video of the Yeosu Expo in Korea this year. The pavilion shot you see is of the main entrance where all the international pavilions are located. On the grounds there are many other themed pavilions all focusing on the main overarching theme of "The Living Ocean and Coast". It was all focused on sustainability and renewable energy and things of that nature. The top of this pavilion was a large digital display.
Hi! I know it's been way too long since I have posted any content but below you will find pictures from Orchard Road in Singapore. Orchard Road hosts many shopping malls and high end retail stores as well as major hotels and dining.
I realize there is no word "airshow" but that's how the organizers stylize it. I've been slow to post pictures from this trip and I'm sorry about that. The photos I have below are mostly of a certain chalet/pavilion. Most of the pictures from inside the exhibit and other chalets do not belong to me, therefore I'm not going to post them without proper permission. I have a couple other series of photos I'll work on putting together.
UPDATE: I added the YouTube version of the video. It should be in a higher resolution.
Below are the pictures I snapped when I went to Chinatown. I also have included a video clip of some TV show or film that was being shot later in the week [Scroll to the bottom]. It was of a purse snatching scene...they did a couple takes when I was there. I'm not sure if they had other scenes planned but I headed out after watching them a couple of times.
Sorry for the low quality on the video, Blogger limits the resolution I guess. I'll have to upload to YouTube and link later.
I had heard Singapore was hot and humid year-round and they were right. I got on a plane where I needed a jacket and got off where I should have been in shorts and a T-shirt. The tropical weather was nice in February though...
My accommodations in Singapore were at The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore. I've posted a hotel room walkthrough down below:
I got to the hotel room that night and tried to sleep. I had said I would be going out to work around 10am that same day...so...I got about 4-5 hours of sleep due to me arriving around 4am to the hotel. When the sun rose and I had some free time later that same day, I snapped some pictures of the gorgeous view from my room:
The next couple of days blended together due to my jet lag. To stay awake, I went with my colleague to the Chinatown area to do some shopping and to keep our bodies moving. We took the public subway system, dubbed the MRT. I liken it to the subway system in Seoul, Korea...very clean, efficient, and timely :)
