London Hooligans




This pub is right next to my apartment. It's one of the main football pubs and every time there's a big game in London fans from both teams meet here before. They had to close off the street and the tube stop until the game started. It was a very British experience.

Abbey Road


Here's the famous crosswalk. No, I did not get a picture of myself walking across.




This is the Abbey Road Studios where The Beatles, McCartney, Lennon, and Pink Floyd all recorded. There's graffiti all over the walls along the street with some of their lyrics.

Tate Modern Art Museum


The Tate Modern is one of the most visited art museums in the world. Its housed in an old power plant along the Thames Rive. And yes, this is Millennium Bridge, the one seen in the Harry Potter movies.


My first Salvador Dali.



Pablo Picasso


This is by Roy Lichtenstein. I was surprised to walk into this, I remember a copy being in the Columbia Catholic School art classroom. 


Another by Mr. Warhol. 


Monet's Water Lilies. I just walked into this one too and I had to go up and make sure it was actually what I thought it was.

Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris


This is a modern art museum in central Paris. The building doesn't have an outer shell so all of the internal workings are visible from the inside and out. 







My first Andy Warhol.


"I live, therefore I am."
