As I try to look back on this past year in Korea and come to some sort of conclusion about things I've learned or ways I've changed, I can't seem to come up with any clear answer. I've learned a lot and certainly changed in a lot of ways, but Korea is not a complete…
Here's a little video I put together from myself and my sister's quick trip to Kyoto. I hope you enjoy it! 24 Hours in Kyoto
A while back I made a post called "Streets of Japan: Tokyo," which you can check out HERE if you'd like. Taking picture of streets while I travel and Japan are two things that I happen to love, and so these posts are always fun for me. Last weekend my sister and I went on…
When I arrived in Hong Kong I didn't have much by the way of expectations. I was mostly just excited to finally see my sister after 8 months. But apart from that, I didn't research too much about what to see in the city. So when my friend suggested doing Lantau Island one day, I…

Right now there are lanterns up for, I believe, Buddha's birthday. And the combination of the cherry blossoms and the lanterns and the beautiful old…
영등포 여의도 봄꽃축제 Showing up somewhere on basically a whim can go pretty much one of two ways. It can either end up being amazing, or it’s a total bust. Luckily for me my weekend turned out to be the former. I decided Friday afternoon to go to Seoul for the weekend…
It finally happened. Some how or another I have managed to go almost a month now living in this country and I haven't gotten properly lost. This is thanks of course to Korea's fabulous transportation infrastructure, and the fact that I can read Korean. But last night it finally happened. I walked out of my…
