Places We Stayed While Making So Simple 2

Big or small, pricey or budget, all these places we stayed while filming So Simple 2 were a wonderful and unforgettable experience. Many thanks to our supportive sponsors!

Some Fond Memories

You Don't Want To Miss...

the last episode of So Simple. No matter what you plan to do or where to go tomorrow, you have to remember to fit in a date with us at 9.30 or 11.30pm. You won't be disappointed. See you tomorrow!

ps: and thanks for reminding, Diet. Yes there's a re-run for So Simple 1 on Saturdays at 11am.

Sneak into Ep 6

What you will see in episode 6 is one of the most unique and unforgettable experiences our team often talks about among ourselves. We have travelled far and wide and have seen many in our years of professional experience but this has got to be one of those encounters that will remain in our minds for a very long time. Tell us what you think after you've watched it.

Accidentally Erased...

My apologies to some of you who wrote us very nice comments about our show in the earlier post "We Have A Great Audience". What happened was, I was sorting and organising the blog, clearing up some older posts and accidentally erased that one as well... sigh. Aniwaes, I still remember the nice things you all said there, but if you want to write them again, that would be really really nice.

The beach featured is in Noosa, situated 150km North of Brisbane at the furtherest North point of the Sunshine Coast.

The Perfect Way to watch So Simple

Ideally, So Simple should be enjoyed in a lazy afternoon with a cup of warm milk tea, a piece of comforting cake and the gentle rain quietly tapping and trickling like a perfect soundtrack. The epitome of pure and simple luxury!

ps 1: I can't resist quoting a comment made by one of our viewers :
"...So Simple 就好像是慵懒的午后那一杯滋润的下午茶，让观众看后觉得真的生活的脚步放慢了，该好好思考自己的一切。。。"
ps 2 : that piece of "victorian sponge" cake was made by Peifen and it tasted really yummy! We have a great patissier in the making!

其实不简单

Today 11 Jan. So Simple 2 will telecast on 22 Jan, 11 days from today. 30 days of pre-production since May. 35 days, 12 hour each day, on location in 4 different cities between July and November. 20 days of post-production before epsiode 1 on Jan 22. And many more xxx days of struggle and sleepless nights for the producers and editors for the next 7 episodes to follow .... It is actually not So simple afterall....

An Invitation

As a part of the So Simple team and one who is taking care of this blog, I'm constantly curious about our viewers and visitors. May I invite you guys to just drop me a line or two and tell me a bit more about yourself?

如果不想报上大名也没关系。 只想在这里多了解一下我们的观众群。毕竟我们做节目除了为发挥创意，传达讯息，也是为了满足观众朋友，让大家看了开心和有所启发。尤其这次到国外拍摄，遇到的人和事物敞开了我们的心怀和视野，更想尽量把拍摄过程的感受和心情，借着节目传达给大家。希望节目播出的时候，你们不只是看，也同时能体会到 “简单就是美2” 内容的意义，还有幕后的心思。

相信“简单就是美”的观众群非一般，你们的品味和要求应该也是我们做节目的标准。所以，如果看了节目还是无所领悟，或觉得欠缺什么，那请你们也一定要直接告诉我们。到时见！

比画还要漂亮的大自然

生活过得简单，与世无争的人，说话，微笑都那么平静

清晨 稻田的怀抱 温暖，宽宏

人少的东京 一样个性

下雨天的街景 分外感性

自由之丘 名副其实

台北个性的住宅

个性的 zakka 杂货咖啡店

那天很幸运，在台北桃园看到彩虹 那么的靠近

九份 到台北一定要去看一看

"欣赏发掘事物的本质，简单 真实 美好 踏实" （自由活志）

You will see all these in So Simple 2

You've got to meet all these interesting people and see these wonderful places. We hope you'll be inspired too.

Some pictures taken while we were on location in Tokyo. We covered many interesting parts of the city, including the outskirts, to feature some unusual people and their lifestyle. Please wait a little while more and you'd get to see all these come alive on tv.

More to Come!

Thank you everyone who's been visiting this blog. I'm glad you guys are constantly checking in for updates. Well, as some of you already heard, from Peifen's blog, we're really in the process of making a season 2. Hence the new photos you can see from the earlier posts.

Some Nice Words To Ponder

长久以来，
我只知道在物质世界，
那个你可以触摸、
可以在店里买到的世界以外，
生命里还有别的东西存在 。
- Krzysztof Kielowski



我们能不能更自由地创造丰富的生活？
将有机的概念不只是局限在饮食上，
而是将思考逻辑、消费行为、人与人之间的对话、
工作格调、居家游戏、休闲运动 。。。，
将艺术与生命结合，全面提升至有机层次。

－ 王信智 “自由活志” 概念统筹


触感与感触，一个是透过体的接触，一个是心的接触。
这块土地上大家都不缺感触，
对于朝朝暮暮的变换或者是是非非的臆测，
有如潮起潮落。。。。 。
人生有太多的空虚其实来自于触感的缺乏。
有多少人还会仔细端详抚触阳台上飘来不知名的树叶、
有多少人会夺门追寻窗外传来不知几条街外的面包香、
回想陪你最久的那张小书桌，现在还在吗？
还记得它带给你的触感吗？
大家都急于抛弃也急于追寻，
我们追寻的真是更好的生活触感吗？

－ 黄士玮，自由作家
