18 BARCELONA – Architecture I: Gaudi

January 22, 2015 by Sam Luong

Perhaps my favorite city thus far has to be Barcelona. From the amazing architecture, the great metro, the multicultural food (I found ramen and sushi houses, which was a rarity in Europe), and the party and waterfront scenes – it has it all. In this album are two of Antonio Gaudi’s famous projects – The Sagrada Familia and the Casa Battlo, both constructed/renovated in the early in 1882 and 1904, respectively. Famous for his organic form finding, Gaudi derived his […]

17 AVIGNON – Palais des Papes

January 17, 2015 by Sam Luong

After leaving the Meditterannean Sea and the Rivieras behind, the trip continued into France. Our first stop was at a perfume factory (Fragonard) and then to Aix-En-Provence. We later travelled to Avignon to visit the Palais des Papes in Avignon, a giant Medieval castle in which the Pope lived at other than the Vatican. One of the more interesting places of interest in the Southern region of France.

15 CINQUE TERRE – Italian Riviera

January 5, 2015 by Sam Luong

One of the days I will never forget was visiting the Italian coastline in the month of November. The UNESCO towns of Monterosso, Vernazza and Manarola, all situated by the Meditteranean was incredibly stunning and warm. And the sunsets off the sea… let’s just say I’ll go back someday.
