One of top things on my list of places to go to on my first return trip to South Korea since leaving in 2023 was Suwon. My old hometown. My stomping and sliding grounds in winter. The place I had chosen as my home away from home for a year based on a google image …

First time back to South Korea
Earlier this year, I went back to South Korea for a holiday since leaving in 2023. It was only for a week (all the annual leave I had left) but I was so excited to go back and dip into my personal nostalgic world. Excited seems like an understatement. I carefully crafted my itinerary- I …
Hello, it’s me?

Happy New Year! 2025
Happy New Year everyone! I've been a little mia on the blog last year. After really struggling to readjust to being back in Sydney towards the end of 2023, these feelings and thoughts continued on into 2024. I started working again full-time and had no annual leave. It was just the grind. I hadn't really …
With A Swipe Card That Works

Another Quick Visit to Karlovy Vary, Czech Republic
I was fortunate to be able to return to Karlovy Vary last year for an overnight stay. Karlovy Vary is up there on my list of 'beautiful architectural towns'. Only 1.5hrs by bus from Prague, Karlovy Vary looks like you'd expect all the princes and princesses from fairy tales to live which is not that …

Trials and Trials in South Korea
It is inevitable that when you live in a different country, things are bound to go wrong sometimes. You just don't know, the culture is different or you just didn't know (I said that twice on purpose). To get through these times, you need some humour and a little bit of that 'happy go lucky' …
Exploring Kyoto: 3 day Itinerary
Kyoto, the city that offers both modern day and tradition in close proximity to each other. A popular city for visitors when travelling to Japan, Kyoto is one of my favourite cities so far that I've been to in Japan.
