  The Orkney Islands are 20 miles north of the coast of Scotland. In the Orkneys, you will find many prehistorical remains, most of them very well preserved. Maes Howe is a burial chamber, built around 2800 BC for an important family. The entrance is a long low corridor arriving to a burial chamber. The interesting fact is that the tomb is illuminated when the winter solstice sunset shines down through the passage once a year. Let’s go now to the Ring of Brodgar, a circle of 60 stones of which 27 remain standing. It dates from around 3000 BC and was probably used for religious and social ceremonies. Nearby, in Stenness only 4 stones survived. Skara Brae is the Northern Europe best preserved Neolithic village which has an interesting story.   In 1850 a wild storm stripped earth and grass from a dune by the sea and the ruins of an ancient village was discovered… dating from 5000 years ago… before the pyramids were built… The structure of the village survived because it became covered

  Now that the weather is quite cool in the morning and evening, it really feels like autumn has arrived.  I personally love the fall season the most for many reasons. First of all, fall is the season of the harvest, and beautifully multi-colored mountains and trees, and cabins on the hills draw especially more tourists to Tennessee. Knoxville, Tennessee, where I live, is mainly famous for its beautiful mountains and hiking trails. Especially in fall, there are many fruit farms in Tennessee where we can pick and buy fruit on our own, called Pick You Own. Some farms grow all types of fruits in different batches together and each fruit is open for PYO when available seasonally. Berries like strawberry, blackberry, and raspberry are usually available in summer and for apples the best season is fall. Some farms also grow their own vegetables, so if you are lucky, you can even buy fresh vegetables. Below is a list of fruit farms in the Knoxville area. A few farms with a long his

  Imagine yourself traveling from London to the northern tip of Scotland. The 8 hours train ride is very pleasant, often along the North Sea, other time through the English countryside, peaceful and green with cows and horses grazing around the farms.  The Orkneys Train station on the way north.  Looking out of the window at the right time, you will have a glimpse of Glamis Castle, the favorite of Queen Elizabeth, the deceased Queen Moher. Inverness is at the end of the line, an important town with fancy and comfortable “Victorian” hotels welcoming you. The next morning, you board a smaller train, called “The Far North Line”, where the passengers talk to one another in a friendly way.   The landscape is now different with spare farms, cottages with thatched roofs, sheep grazing everywhere, beautiful scenery with rocks and lakes (called lochs).   The route stops at Thurso, the most northerly train station in the British Isles.      Thurso is close to Scrabster and you will again c

          Do you remember this scene in the Squid Game in Netflix? This is an official trailer of Squid Game in Netflix.  Jung-jae Lee, Korean actor who stars as an Ki-Hoon Sung in Squid Game, is showing great acting in the drama. This time, I prepared a story about Squid Game, a Netflix Korean drama that is currently popular all over the world. I am very happy that this Squid Game is ranked number 1 in all 90 countries where Netflix is aired. In the U.S, the popularity of the Squid Game is being evaluated as once again reranking the fire of Korean wave beyond the simple interest in drama. Many people are enthusiastic about the old Korean culture, customs and food that appears in the drama, such as the squid game, the flower of Mgunghwa had bloomed game, the dalgona candy, and the costumes of the characters. Mugunghwa flower is Hibiscus flower and it is is a Korean national flower. For reference, in the drama, the game of my childhood memories, Mugunghwa had bloomed game, uses the gr
