Fresh off the plane from Canada, I had but a few days to recover after Christmas before I was squashed into a car and driven to the north. Not quite as far as Stirling (though I'd be making that trip just the following week!). We were off for a festive visit to my grandparents in Warrington and thought we'd do a little exploring of Liverpool while we had the opportunity!
An impromptu and belated new year's resolution to myself was to improve on portraiture in my photography. I've always stuck mainly to landscape and wildlife photography so I wanted to branch out a little and challenge myself.

With my time in London drawing to a close after Singapore and Bali, I had just a week to adjust to the new time zone and, of course, meet up with Kiran! She had a culture project due for university that required her to take a trip into Soho for Chinese New Year so I decided to tag along with my camera in tow.
Back in Singapore, I didn't have long to recover from food poisoning before we were back out exploring the island...
