すき焼き

 

Trying the Sukiyaki special at one of my favorite Japanese restaurants, it's truly delicious and although more expensive than most of their menu it's worth a splurge to indulge yourself!

Homunculus

Homunculus (masculine, Latin for "little man", plural: "homunculi"; from the diminutive of homo) is a term used, generally, in various fields of study to refer to any representation of a human being. In current context, in scientific fields, a homunculus may refer to any scale model of the human body that, in some way, illustrates physiological, psychological, or other abstract human characteristics or functions.

Kew gardens & the Rhizotron and Xstrata Treetop Walkway

I finaly manage to drag my behind out to Kew gardens, I was a bit concerned that I might have left it a bit late for the year, considering that the season has more or less changed over to winter now, but it was still able to keep interest for a day. I really do prefer living in the big city compared to the countryside but I miss nature sometimes so this is a good substitute.

I feel almost kinda weirdly jelous of the huge, victorian greenhouses with their caged rainforests. I want one of those!

 My bangs have grown too long again, I can't make up my mind how to wear my hair so for now I'll just braid it out of my way...

I had been looking forward to the treetop walkway since forever.

I'm definetley going to have to give it a re-visit in spring to see it clad in greenery.

There's something surreal and slightly magical about stroling around in the canopy compleatley unbothered.
