Getting your haircut / blow dried / styled must be a serious business in Shanghai…. or it’s a favourite pass-time!
The number of hairdressers in Shanghai is huge and they open all hours of the day.  In particular, it’s really fun seeing how they wash someone’s hair whilst they sit reading a magazine.

It’s time for a bit of Melbourne.  My 10 day trip to Australia now heads a couple hours flight south to Melbourne where they seem much more obsessed about good food, eating out and a good coffee.  No shortage of places to get a latte here and with so many establishments it makes the quality [...]

In fact it’s encouraged! 
I grabbed this shot in the Sydney Apple Shop.  The Apple branding goes way beyond just their products and comes into everything they do.  This staircase being no exception!

This is a neat place. The ground floor is dedicated to selling all the different types of plastic styled film cameras (lomos, Holga and all the accessories), whilst on the other floors there are galleries, a reading room with old 1980’s [...]
