Apparently one of the ways to lessen reverse culture shock is to seek out the food or culture back in your home town. Luckily for me, Sydney's multiculturism means that I can easily find Korean restaurants. Sadly not many Korean style cafes though. In the past few months being back home, I've sought out Korean food …

Photo and Memory Storage
While cleaning out the bottom shelf of the linen closet the other day, I came a box containing all of our family photos. This box has laid untouched for YEARS. Of course, many of the albums have been ripped or broken in parts or have completely detached from their spines. I have started the arduous …

By the time I publish this post, I would have arrived back home after my year living in South Korea and travels. As bad as it sounds, it feels a bit like time travel where I've come back to the same family home, the same town, people are going about the same lives that they …
48 Hours Offline Experiment
This past weekend, Amanda from Something To Ponder About and I decided to go without the internet for 48 hours. Amanda has already posted her experience so it would be interesting to also read her thoughts on our offline weekend as well. With the internet so engrained in our daily lives, would we find this …
