My little room

welcome in
Spend some time to tidy up mine little room.
Still finding my favourite color for the room ...
Probably Santorini's blue or Turkey's blue.

A wall behind the work desk.

I'am collecting some old photos recently.

I'm looking for some shelf to organise these stuff.

Not feeling well this few weeks ... caught in flu and cough.

Zakka Restaurant ~ Poco Homemade

PocoHome_1
Pocohomemade is a zakka store cum restaurant which located in Bangsar, not far from The China Press and New Straits Times office.

Read the Interviewed article here. (but only in Mandarin)

Such sweet and lovely colours and appearance.
Simple, charming, Japanese & Taiwanese aesthetic.
