Hi I'm ALfred.


This was a picture taken in a park in the center of Tokyo. This place was absolutely wonderful because it was right in the middle of this really busy metropolitan , there sits this extremely and surprisingly quiet place. It was a place of tranquility. In this park there are some beautiful architecture preserving the beauty of the japanese culture and very well trimmed plants. This shows that the japanese really cares about their heritage. In ten years, I hope this park remains a place where japanese citizen can find peace and calm in their really busy lives. Also this park should remain to remind the japanese people of their heritage and where they came from, despite the constant push to change. Sometimes things should just stay the same and should not be altered.



Hi all, my name is Alfred and I just moved to Toronto from Montreal. I lived in Montreal for about 6 years . I attended high school and CEGEP there and I went to Dawson College in Graphic Design for three years. I lived in Hong Kong for about twelve years before moving to Montreal.
