Goodbye Chicago

Thank you for visiting the Chicago Photos. Since 2010 when I first moved to Chicago from Portland, I've been taking "once-in-a-while" pictures of Chicago and its suburbs (mostly Evanston). After three wonderful years of life and study in this magnificent city, I am now temporarily moving to Houston, Texas. Soon after, I will move to Melbourne, Australia. I may start Melbourne Photos to keep my photoblogging spirit alive. I will update this post with a link to my new blog as soon as I start it, perhaps in January 2014. Thank you again to all my amazing friends and followers, specially Dina and Petrea for they long support and kindness.
