United Kingdom

Text Box: United Kingdom— consists of a few counties/countries I am not so sure about this one but I think it is countries. Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England are countries included in the United Kingdom.

I went to UK to complete my postgraduate degree in Information Security at Royal Holloway.  I was in the UK for about a year and manage to go to a few places only as I was living in a tight budget in Surrey— an area where the cost of living is actually higher than in London itself.  The reason why is that Surrey basically housed the rich and the famous of people around the globe. i.e. that include Sultan Pahang of Malaysia as well.  So I guess you can tell from that bit of information.  

I’m only showing you the photos in which I think is the most relevant and the most significant to me.  There were just so many places to go that I can’t actually cover the whole year I was there.  There are Big Ben, London Eye, Madame Tussaud (cost you a bomb to enter...mind you), the Globe ( this is where Shakespears plays are presented to the public, I went to this one—to watch Romeo and Juliet), Tower of London (David Blaine was caging himself in  a glass box when I arrived), London Bridge, Thames River, House of Parliament, London Tube, Hampton Court (King Henry VIII residence) and etc..etc..etc.   Apart from London places that I went to while I was in UK were Portsmouth, Oxford and Birmingham.

Trafalgar Square—lots and lots of pigeons there. Just watch out for you head not to get squirt by their...you know what…

 

I was a bit plump here as I just arrived from Malaysia at that time.

London Eye— you can get a bird’s eye view from the wheel behind me.  The wheel is known as London Eye… I didn’t take a ride in it as it takes ages before you can actually go up there as there’s a long queue.
