Korea from the back row

Alexandre, Mathias, Victor and Koji. Korean Tour Blog 2023 Part 2. Now into the second half of our Korean tour we were pleasantly surprised by a full buffet in the morning. We boarded the coach, slipping into our usual seats at the back, hoping for a short ride to the concert venue. However, we were […]

Libera in Korea 2023 – Part 1

By: Cameron and Lewis The Korean tour 2023 started, of course, with a day of flying from London to Seoul. We were exhausted when we arrived, however we kept pushing on and, in the end, once we had got into the proper city we met our Korean promoters and shared some delicious pizza. We then […]

USA 2019 – Part 3

Los Angeles The journey from Oklahoma to Los Angeles was shorter than the long-haul flights across the Atlantic which was good because it was a small plane and we were spread out all over the place – but we had a lovely stopover in Phoenix AZ where the temperature was 45 or 113 degrees depending […]

USA 2019 – Part 2

After travelling for 8 hours on our coach, or bus, depending on where you live (buses for us London people are big red crowded things in which many passengers stand. But coaches are nice and comfy and everyone sits, unless they are going to the toilet, or restroom, depending where you live). Anyhow we arrived […]

USA 2019 – Part 1

Because some of us only finished school the day before, we were awoken in the middle of the night – 2 30am! – to catch our plane at 7 30am in order to get to the USA in time for our first performance. So we were lagged before we’d even jetted. But did we care […]

Japan Journey continued…

DAY FIVE We awoke from our new beds on floor 23 and took the lift down to Nagoya breakfast where there was another delish buffet, with hash browns, miso soup, eggs and various not-waffle stuff including a long queue for the omelettes. We went to a park for another silent soccer/footie match which was on […]

Japan Journey

DAY ONE Like often happens for our tours at Half-Term (Half-Term = a short school holiday lasting a week) many of us rushed straight from school to Heathrow Airport – some via a coach from South London, some direct. So we had all been working hard all day before we set off on our big […]

China Part 3

Day seven started around 08:30hrs when we rose, showered, dressed in our Sunday best and breakfasted. It was the final concert day. We reach a time when we are on tour when it seems as though it could continue for ever. Tour life becomes a routine and it seems very strange that it is only […]

China Part 2

Day three arrived with a mix of excitement and nerves – our first concert day. After breakfast we made our way to a nearby school. Again, we had the use of a large field and track area, plus, as it was a school day, we were all treated to a musical accompaniment over the loud […]

China

PART 1 For most of us it was the half term break and for all of us it was our first trip to China.  We were really excited, so it was a lively group getting off the coach at Heathrow airport. And then, as we were about to check in, we wondered why all the […]
