Daejeon Cafe: Cafe Jota//카페 좋다 Back today with another cafe! And another cafe in Galmadong at that. It seems like Galmadong is the place to be for small trendy cafe's recently. We were actually trying to go to another cafe in the area that I've been wanting to post about for a looong time but…
Jeju Video Sorry I haven't been writing a lot lately but here's something that's actually from a while ago which I never got around to posting! This is just a little video I threw together from my trip to Jeju in July! Hope you enjoy!
Daejeon Cafe: Lune H // 륀에이치 When I moved to Daejeon about a year and a half ago the first thing I did was to search for pretty cafe's where I could go to study. I remember how hard it was to search for things in Korean and also the feeling of success…
Jeju Day 3: The Sunny Day We woke up that morning to grey misty skies still unsure if we'd be able to get the beach day that we were hoping for. Where we were staying, directly in Seoguipo, it pretty much rained the entire day but as we made our way out towards Hyeopjae…

Pax // 팍스 Pax is a rather large industrial style cafe in the middle of a very typical little Korean residential area. My friend and I came here after a quick kimbap/ramen dinner to study for a while. When we arrived around 7:00 there was still hardly any one there so it was perfect…
When The Shine Wears Off This is year two for me living and working in Daejeon, Korea. So that means that, for two-thirds of my students this is their second year with me. It means that the novelty of me has worn off for most of my kids. That manifests itself in good and…
Taean Tulip Festival 태안 튤립축제 Two Saturdays ago myself and a friend found ourselves at Daejeon's main bus terminal very early with tickets to a small town on the coast called Taean. It was a long weekend for us so we figured we had to get out of Daejeon for a least one day…
