If you claim to be a fan of the Harry Potter series, the United Kingdom should be your destination of the year for 2017. This is because you will encounter a lot of Harry Potter-related events in the UK, celebratingย the 20th anniversaryย of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone!ย I searchedย someย events which I want to attend, andย here they are – calling every Harry Potter fan! ๐Ÿ™‚ Warner Bros. Studio (Imageย from pixabay.com) Warner Bros. Studio Tour London – The Making of Harry Potter should be a Must-Go place for many Harry Potter movie fans. Compared to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter from Universal Studios, this attraction has more focus on the process of film production. With that, itsย special exhibitions for this year also introduce additional stories behind the movie characters and items. 1. Directing Dobby ( ~ 31. March) This exhibition allows us to find out how Dobby was created -…

Whoever it is that asks me where they should visit in the UK, my answer always includes York. Taking about two hours by train from London, I bet you will see, just within a day, how this medieval city has cast a spell over me (and you too by the end of the day). My first visit to York was in June 2012 with my uni friends. I had so many sweet memories then that I had to take my mum to share them with her during her visit in April 2016. As the city has managed to keep its medieval look superbly, the four-year gap seemed non-existent: it stayed as pretty as it always has been. Among a countless number of things to do, here are my Must-Do’s in York. They are all possible on foot! The Shambles: the Medieval Street…just like a Film Set! My absolutely favourite place in York is the Shambles!…

About three weeks ago my friends living in Germany visited me. Wondering what could make our days in London fabulous, I encountered this thing from the Natural History Museum: After-School Club for Grown-ups & Silent Disco at the Natural History Museum. I must admit I had thought spending time at museums is far from having most fun. Thank God that I didn’t take the same approach this time and went for it. This event was actually my best night out, and I could also see highly satisfied faces of my friends. No matter when the next event pops up, you might as well browse now on how I enjoyed it to make most of yours. ๐Ÿ™‚ As the name described, we could choose one of the programmes or both. To nail that night we went for both: one from 7pm-10pm, and the silent disco from 10pm-1am. Now let me share with you how I…

Not until this monthย did I ever visitย Brighton, despite almost two years living in Londonย in totalย that is just about anย hour away. Perhaps I thought it would be so easy to just get a train down to the city from London that I actually put it aside over other trips that are harder to make. Now that I made a visit to Brighton, I feel a bit regretful for why I hadn’t been to this awesome place much earlier! Yes, so I went there again after two weeks from the first trip….I think I may be in love with Brighton. As a small note, some of the photos are from my friendย Or Asawawilaswong during myย firstย visit to Brighton with her a few weeks ago. As I was taking videos with GoPro,ย I asked for her permission to share her great photos with you on this post. Other photos are mine from another trip a…
