New look A Girl in Asia

A Girl in Asia has had a little cosmetic work done - in the form of a new blog header. Once upon a time I thought my black and white bird image best reflected my blog and what it was all about (a curious little bird seeking out new finds). I guess it still does, but as it turns out the image I used (adapted from a free Wordpress theme called bluebird) was not so original - also used, it seems, by Twitter!! So a facelift has been long overdue. The lantern image (which is just like my blog - a little bit Asian, a little bit girly!) comes courtesy of an illustrator named Karin Knowlton who has graciously allowed me to use her design (a big thank you!). You can see more of her illustrations on her Flickr page, and she's soon opening an Etsy store.
