While immersing myself in the company of books tha While immersing myself in the company of books that had been in antiquity, a lot of questions run through my head. What if’s. Could have beens. Regrets. Joys. Anxiety. Anticipation. My life flashed before my eyes in a manner that is both bittersweet and scary, like when I took the risk to go overseas to try my luck in the career path I never thought would last me till now (three years and counting) and braving the waves both literally and figuratively. I was frustrated, disappointed and very much in angst about life’s unexpected curveballs this year. But this year had been a turning point in both physical and mental health. This year had tested me and baptised me with water, fire and a lot of snow and ice. It is tiring, yet I always believe in the power of solid and lasting friendships and stable relationships. (Always grateful for friends turned to family and strangers turned friends). It was my way of adapting to life’s hardest battles I had to fight on a daily basis. Been injured, had been severely depressed and suicidal, had a major surgery and one organ out, and constantly lives with pain but again, these scars become my stepping stones to rebuilding my self over and over. While I immerse myself in the antiquity of these books, I relish on the fact that I had been able to leave an imprint of my footsteps in this library, and my presence had been incorporated on its existence, just like leaving an impression on other’s lives. I am very far from being perfect, and will never be. But as I wake up everyday to face the world again, I am still comforted on the fact that my unimportant existence still makes a mark in a vast, chaotic and unforgiving society. As the year comes to a close, I am still very much a work in progress and I am still very much grateful that along the way, I am able to live and love as if it is my last breath. And when the time on earth comes to a close, I hope and pray that my impact to others had been relevant enough to be remembered (including the bad and the ugly). 📸 @jonggailim 📍Armchair Books Edinburgh, Scotland #YearEndMusings #ViajeraCebuanaTravels #ViajeraCebuanaAdventures

For success, attitude is equally important as abil For success, attitude is equally important as ability - Sir Walter Scott —————————- The Scott monument is a brooding, 200-foot (61m), Gothic spire which opened in 1846 in hi rolific local novelist Walter Scott. It has been called "the largest monument to a writer in the world.” Situated opposite Jenners and very near Waverley Station, the "gothic rocket" has a very darl caused by pollutants and soot sticking to its oily, shale stone structure. In spite of attempts to monument - during the 1990s it was under scaffolding and covered up for many years - it still dark colouring. When you climb the Monument's 287 steps to the top, via its increasingly narrow, spiral stairc a series of viewing decks offering views of Edinburgh City Centre. The museum at level 1 has the hallowed air of a small chapel with its wooden panelled walls an arched windows. The four stained-glass windows were designed by leading 19th century Scottis Roberts and made by James Ballantine. There's a small circular bench in the middle for resting dedicated to Walter Scott. Audio installations offer readings of Scott's work. After entering another door, you follow the stone, spiral staircase to the top. It becomes so narrow near the spire that you may find it a squash to pass visitors on their way back down. At the top of the stairs, a small door leads out to the 360° viewing deck. The wind-swept top offers fantastic views of the surrounding Edinburgh area (on a good day). You can walk all the round the deck, looking up and down Princes Street, over the top of the adjacent Festival Wheel, across to Edinburgh Castle and the line of Old Town buildings of the Royal Mile.

Knaresborough Viaduct Knaresborough Viaduct is a Knaresborough Viaduct Knaresborough Viaduct is a viaduct in the North Yorkshire town of Knaresborough, England. The viaduct carries the Harrogate line over the River Nidd in the town. The viaduct was supposed to have opened in 1848, but the first construction collapsed into the river very near to completion, which necessitated a new viaduct and delayed the opening of the line through Knaresborough by three years. Location: Knaresborough (/ˈnɛərzbərə/ NAIRZ-bər-ə) is a market and spa town and civil parish in the Borough of Harrogate, North Yorkshire, England, on the River Nidd 3 miles (4.8 km) east of Harrogate. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knaresborough #TGMA2021 #ViajeraCebuanaTravels #ViajeraCebuanaAdventures #Day1of4 #throwback #SFCUK
Leeds Cathedral is one of the finest Catholic Cath Leeds Cathedral is one of the finest Catholic Cathedrals in England. Dedicated to Saint Anne, the mother of Our Lady, the Cathedral is situated in the heart of Leeds city centre and contrasts with the surrounding new hotels and office blocks, The Light shopping centre, and the Victorian Town Hall. The Cathedral is a place of silence and prayer which provides a refuge from the activity of one of Britain’s busiest cities. This atmosphere of peace has grown through the daily celebration of the Liturgy, and every afternoon there is silent Adoration before the Blessed Sacrament. This sense of God’s peaceful presence is the Cathedral’s chief glory. #TGMA2021 #LeedsCathedral #ViajeraCebuanaTravels #ViajeraCebuanaAdventures #SFCUK

Spanning nine acres of land on its rocky plateau, Bamburgh Castle is one of the largest inhabited castles in the country. Home to a succession of kings from Henry VI to James 1 and the first castle in the world to fall to gunpowder in the War of the Roses. A charitable foundation and the coastal landmark that sparked the imagination of William Armstrong.

From around 1067 the Normans demolished at least 9 From around 1067 the Normans demolished at least 98 Saxon homes in Norwich to make way for the castle earthworks within which they built a wooden fort, surrounded by deep defensive dry ditches. Once the land had settled, work was begun on the stone keep in 1094 by King William (Rufus) II. Following his death in 1100 it was continued by his brother King Henry I and completed by 1121. Norwich Castle was designed to be a royal palace rather than a fortification. However, no Norman kings ever lived in it. The only time Henry I is known to have stayed at Norwich Castle was for Christmas 1121, a visit explored in detail in the displays in the Castle Keep. Norwich Castle keep was built using limestone shipped from Caen in France at a cost of over three times the original value of the stone! Originally the ground floor walls were faced in flint, in stark contrast to the white limestone of the Royal Palace on the upper level. The upper floor (where the balcony now stands) was divided into two sections. On the north side was the Great Hall, and on the south were the royal quarters which comprised of a large parlour, bedrooms and a private chapel. Within the outer walls is a walkway (fighting gallery) where soldiers could patrol the building. The Castle’s Norman origins are explored in more detail on our Norman Connections website, which sets the Castle in an international architectural context. The county gaol From the 14th century the keep was used as a county gaol, until a new gaol, designed by Sir John Soane, was constructed both inside and around the keep in 1792-93. The prison was quickly seen as outdated and difficult to patrol and so the outside block was demolished between 1822 and 1827. Local architect William Wilkins won the competition (and £100) to design the new prison. Wilkins had a keen interest in archaeology and it’s thanks to his efforts that many original features such as the Norman pillar bases in the keep remain to this day.

The cathedral, located on Unthank Road, was constr The cathedral, located on Unthank Road, was constructed between 1882 and 1910 to designs by George Gilbert Scott, Jr. as a parish church dedicated to John the Baptist, on the site of the Norwich City Gaol. The funds for its construction were provided by Henry Fitzalan-Howard, 15th Duke of Norfolk. He funded it as a generous gift to the Catholics of Norwich as a sign of thanksgiving for his first marriage to Lady Flora Abney-Hastings. In 1976, it was consecrated as the cathedral church for the newly erected Diocese of East Anglia and the seat of the Bishop of East Anglia. In 2014, for the first time since 1558, a Pontifical High Mass was celebrated in this episcopal see's cathedral. It is the second largest Roman Catholic cathedral in England, the largest being Westminster Cathedral. It is one of two cathedrals in the city of Norwich, the other being the Church of England Cathedral Church of the Holy and Undivided Trinity, begun in the Norman style in 1096. #WheninNorwich #CityofStories #ViajeraCebuanaAdventures #ViajeraCebuanaTravels #norwich
