I am currently doing my PhD at the University of Nottingham. I am doing research on how and why tourists blog about their travel experiences. This research is really exciting at this stage as the tourism industry is gradually acknowledging the importance of travel blogs as narratives of tourists. They now realize how travel blogs are worthy of examination.carmela bosangit
Sounds serious.. hmmm.. but i am just like any tourists, when I am not working on this research, I travel as much as I can. I recently developed a love for historical places and amazing landscapes... well since I got to UK.. I plan to see more of UK :-)

UK has lots of castles! I've seen a few... mostly from Wales.... but still have to write about them.. some are not so magnificent as we expect castles to be. Some are okay, some have more interesting stories.. and some are really really old and has seen so many battles. Chepstow castle was built in the 10th century. It was in the border town of Chepstow between England and Wales hence, it played a big role as a fortress. I am posting a few pictures for now ... see for yourself..... read more
