Hehe.. I've been to most of the Asian countries, and a couple of European ones.. each has its own uniqueness in terms of food, culture etc.. I think the ones most memorable for me are UK where I studied and Japan which is spearheading eastern countries in terms of technology, fashion and especially "pet worshipping"
Yeah, it's really hard to take pics of animals... I was sweating like pig chasing the hyperactive Chanelle around trying to get some decent pics of her a few days back... all I ended up snapping were parts of head or butt as she dodged around running like a mad doggy haha!
