I AM SMRITI RAI

Boathouse Bar Bristol

Western Europe's tallest building, from where you can get 360 view of the densely populated  London City. When we went there it was gloomy and windy, weather wise, but the view was still amazing and also, they will refund the ticket if, due to the weather, you were unable to get the proper view...   Photo by Smriti Rai and Manju K Rai

After 20 hours of long flight, I landed in a wet and grey Heathrow...Driving back home, I noticed the trees were saturated in brown tone and as I got out of the car, I could feel the severe cold pinching me back to reality...I finally feel like Christmas is coming!  Back in Melbourne, with the boiling heat, I found it hard to believe that it was November and the idea of Christmas BBQ just made me laugh... However, here I am, in a cold winter, layering and still comfortably wearing trainers.   Coat @forevernew Turtleneck @primark Culotte @zara Trainers @adidasoriginals Bag @urbanoutfitters Photograph by Manju K Rai

As you can see in the picture, the castle looks empty because it was winter time. I have visited this castle in summer as well and trust me, there were so many people and the vibe was totally different.  This is what I love so much about seasonal change. It can make the same place look so different. In a way, season is there for us to appreciate and recognize the beauty in a place we choose to live. Same things can get boring but we, as human, will notice change and change is beautiful.  Every season has its character. I could drink coffee and take a rest (if it was summer I would definitely go for ice-cream!) There were few people which meant I could take loads picture! It was like having the whole castle to myself. Leeds is large. There is something for every age group. You can spend a quality family time. Lastly, I want to inform you guys about its ticket system which is the best thing that your ticket will last all year round! ...
