A photo that he sent us after the tsunami. I think that it was more than a month that we did not know whether or not he lived in the area struck by the tsunami and whether or not he had survived if he did. I received the photo on 13 June 2011.

Apart from our fight against scammers my friend and I corresponded about the time I spent in Tokyo Japan after Korea. It was only 4 weeks in Tokyo, the rest of the time in Kure., from where I managed to visit Hiroshima for a day

Blue Lagoon (DVD) is a classic love story about two young adults who fall in love despite all obstacles. Emma and Dean are two ordinary teenagers who travel with their school to Trinidad for a charity project. Emma is your 'good girl next door' type of girl, but she has a crush on a cute boy which makes her break the rules for once in her life and that fatal decision will carry on to change her life forever. Dean is your typical bad boy, who is sent on the trip to make extra credit so he can graduate high school. Emma and Dean are worlds apart before departure but this life changing trip makes their lives take a completely new turn, something that they never had imagined possible. There is a big storm one night and Emma and Dean end up stranded on a deserted island, alone but together. They are stuck on the island and they have no choice but to work together in order to survive. As they manage to survive on the island their relationship develops. But will they ever get off the island and can they ever have a normal life together? HD version
