Snow in Homerton

It's snowing in Cambridge today.

Danny and I went out to take some photos.
Don't know why, I am starting to miss Homerton already.
I guess three years are not enough for me.

Even though when I first came here, I complained a lot about the stress, the small minute room, the hall food.
But after years of staying here, I find it a very beautiful place now.
Time is an amazing thing, isn't it?

I start to miss the warm light shining through the windows of dining hall at night, the smiling old porters at the reception, the morning greetings of our cheerful cleaners Grace and Cheryl, the always-so-full bicycle racks, and the corridor mates making coffee in the kitchen, this is a beautiful place, really.

On the way back, we met an angmo randomly.
Danny jokingly said 'Merry Christmas' despite it being the 1st of February.
The angmo replied with a smile 'it's about time'.

Friendly, casual, easy-going is what I like about being overseas.
:)
