From the pictures above, where do you think you can see all those beautiful scenery?
Japan Hokkaido? BINGO! You've guessed it.
The best time to go there is around late June till early August. It is when most the flowers bloom into their vibrant colours. Why do I want to go there personally when I can see them online? This is because I would like to enjoy the scenery there and feel them, breathe in their fresh aroma and enjoy being there. For me, I enjoy nature more than any technology. Being in the beautiful nature allows me to relax myself. There is this feeling I am not able to describe from inside me how much I want to go experience everything there physically.
Being able to eat the delicious sashimi and local delights there was what I desire to eat most as a picky eater. The ice-cream in Singapore is nothing compared to the ones in Hokkaido. They are very tempting. During the period where the flowers there bloom, the sea urchins there are one of the treasures as they only come out in that period of time. The sea urchins are caught in baskets from the sea and then taken to the factory to extract the meat. This sound pretty gross until you get to taste them. From the documentary program I have watched, they say that the sea urchins taste better than the little treats. They are much tastier than any sweets we eat and it is not at all bitter. If I am there, I would definitely want to visit one of the restaurants which I have seen in the documentary. He can make many dishes using sea urchins. Chawamushi, baked sea urchins and sea urchin rice practically almost in any cooking style you can think off. Most of all, sea urchins can be eaten fresh, just like our sashimi.
Hopefully, i will be lucky enough to experience one of the performances on street in Hokkaido for their events. They would dress up in Kiminos and other costumes to dance on the streets.
The 2nd place I would like to visit is Taiwan! Where you can eat all you want and shopping spree. All you get for shopping are cheap deals. Most of them are of reasonable prices. Plus travelling there is cheap. Bus fare of less than a dollar can bring you from one to the other end of the city. Of course, not forgetting the beautiful sceneries you get to see in Taiwan. My camera will be filled with thousands of picture. If you have watched the movie 'Cape 7' you will know what I mean and understand how much I would like to go the North side of Taiwan (Tainan). I would like to visit the places being filmed in 'Cape 7' specially the house Fan Yi Cheng lives in the movie and the seas they have been.
