If you take the bus in the city along where the Kaohsiung Cultural Center (高雄市文化中心) is, you’ll see some fascinating art installations decorating the bus stops. We were on our way to a cafe when we passed by one of the said bus stops – beautiful pigeons atop. For a moment, they felt so real I was afraid they’d all be gone before I could take a picture. Well, I had time for two.

I came across a couple of posts on the 12 things on 12/12/12 theme and thought that I might join in the fun to post a dozen pictures that would otherwise probably never see the light of day on this blog. Some are really, really old and a few are very recent – like the last picture, for example. I recently tried Lomography’s Lady Grey B&W 400 and X-Pro Chrome 100 and fell in love so hard!

Excellent coffee (I had two, if that’s any indication for you) and the prettiest bar area I’ve seen in a cafe. The coziness of this place is one of a kind – the kind that feels like we were lazing an afternoon away in a friend’s home over books and the chugs of sewing machines.

I knew that we were headed for a cute handmade cafe when I suggested to Evelyn that we visit FLORET in Kaohsiung but the truth is, it turned out to be pretty much the dream shop, ever.
This wonderful space tucked in a quiet lane is a handmade shop (FLORET Room of Handmade Stuff) and cafe (Biscuit & Rabbit Cafe Tea Rooms) rolled in one. Pictures of the cafe will come right up in tomorrow’s post but will you first look at the crazy messy sewing room they have at the back of the shop? I don’t use uppercase often but WHAT A DREAM.
The incredibly sad thing is that they’ve recently announced the closing of the Kaohsiung shop to focus on another venture that will bring them back to Taipei. It’s a shame that this happy place in Kaohsiung will cease to exist but I’m just going to count my lucky stars that we got to go for the first last time.
