Ah..Bath

I went to Bath today for an interview. This is the third time I’ve been there and it never fails to impress me. It is a very charming and pretty city, Georgian in style. Most of the buildings in Bath are made out of Bath stones, which give the city its distinctive colour (sandy colour). Do you know that the whole of Bath is designated as a world heritage site by UNESCO? Now that’s a very impressive feat.

Bath Abbey

Two thousand years ago, with most of the world at their feet, the Romans recognised the unique qualities of Bath and settled there. They chose well. Set in a sheltered valley, surrounded like Rome by seven wooded hills and nourished by Britain's only natural hot springs, it is a natural haven. And it still is. Those thermal waters that first attracted the Celts and Romans are the source of life, inspiring the creation of a spa complex. However, the spa complex has been plagued by several problems….like leaking tiles…contractors pulling out…so on and so forth. Its original opening date was in 2004. It is now rescheduled to be opened in 2006.

Bath by day

Despite its problems, Bath remains a very beautiful city, with all its charming Georgian houses and shops, rich in history and heritage. It is a place which I would definitely recommend visiting at least once in your lifetime.

Bath by night

As for the interview, I think it went pretty well. I should be hearing something from them in a week’s time! Fingers crossed…..
