Japan x Melbourne

Wowow! Eight films in five days! 

This time last year I was in Japan and while it's not quite the same, there are some really exciting Japan related festivities happening here in Melbourne over the next week or so. The Japan Culture Festival starts from 11AM today at the Collingwood Townhall and the 15th Japanese Film Festival opens this Tuesday 29th of November 2011. Check it out!

Akaroa, NZ

Despite my good intentions I always forget to take photos. I did however, manage to take a few happy snaps of beautiful Akaroa. Oh New Zealand, you're so dreamy!

Apologies, I've long forgotten where I sourced these images from. Below is what I can remember: 

 cute shoes /  hydrangeas /  sakura

SBS PopAsia

Admittedly this is on rather early, especially for a Sunday morning but I'm still super excited about a brand new television favourite - SBS Pop Asia! Tune in every Sunday from 8:30AM on SBS1 to enjoy the latest Korean, Japanese, Cantonese, Mandarin and South East Asian pop music videos. 

I am by no means a Asia Pop expert but below are a few personal favourites:

I've always liked the Fit's CMs. So funny!
