You might have heard of the ‘Cotswolds’ when it comes to holidays in the UK. The Cotswolds indicates a region in south central England that has the Cotswolds hills. Its landscape is so beautiful that it is an AONB (Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty). As the map below shows it spans across 6 counties in England: Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, Warwickshire, Somerset, Wiltshire and Worcestershire. If you were keen to see the cute, little countryside in England and encountered the Cotswolds, what you need to do now is to decide where in the Cotswolds. Although I haven’t managed to visit every place, I would like to introduce some of those I have been to. Hopefully the following list tempts you to pick destinations of the Cotswolds! P.S. I am going to continuously add when I get to visit more of them – stay tuned! The Cotswolds is made up of lots of places of different sizes…

If you claim to be a fan of the Harry Potter series, the United Kingdom should be your destination of the year for 2017. This is because you will encounter a lot of Harry Potter-related events in the UK, celebrating the 20th anniversary of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone! I searched some events which I want to attend, and here they are – calling every Harry Potter fan! 🙂 Warner Bros. Studio (Image from pixabay.com) Warner Bros. Studio Tour London – The Making of Harry Potter should be a Must-Go place for many Harry Potter movie fans. Compared to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter from Universal Studios, this attraction has more focus on the process of film production. With that, its special exhibitions for this year also introduce additional stories behind the movie characters and items. 1. Directing Dobby ( ~ 31. March) This exhibition allows us to find out how Dobby was created -…

Whoever it is that asks me where they should visit in the UK, my answer always includes York. Taking about two hours by train from London, I bet you will see, just within a day, how this medieval city has cast a spell over me (and you too by the end of the day). My first visit to York was in June 2012 with my uni friends. I had so many sweet memories then that I had to take my mum to share them with her during her visit in April 2016. As the city has managed to keep its medieval look superbly, the four-year gap seemed non-existent: it stayed as pretty as it always has been. Among a countless number of things to do, here are my Must-Do’s in York. They are all possible on foot! The Shambles: the Medieval Street…just like a Film Set! My absolutely favourite place in York is the Shambles!…

A museum changes into a disco club!  In the previous post I shared how much I enjoyed a special event at the Natural History Museum called: ‘After-School Club for Grown-ups & Silent Disco at the Natural History Museum’. While I was busy dancing hard, the marketer bit of me managed to squeeze into my mind. Because my general impression towards museums was rather far from excitement, I started to think about how the Natural History Museum was so successful in this event. There are four success factors I have thought of as a marketer’s perspective. 1. Clear STP (Segmentation, Targeting, and Positioning) Customers of the Natural History Museum  (NHM) can be categorised with various criteria, but here I divided them into two groups as follows: Kids and adults with kids; and grown-ups without kids.
