It’s cringey saying it out loud but to say that this past year has been a wild ride would be an understatement. Truly. The decision to come on exchange is one I will never regret. The opportunity to live in a new country, learn a new language, experience a new culture, and meet so many…Continue Reading Evelyn: It’s time to say goodbye, 마지막 인사
Halfway through the semester already? Why does the Spring semester always seem to go faster? I can confirm that this semester definitely feels and probably is a lot busier than last. There are of course a number of things that have contributed to this though. Some good, some I would not necessarily consider good to…Continue Reading Cafes, vacys and 슈퍼주니어??!
Hiya! Welcome to my second semester at Korea University! Now that I am familiar with the school, the country, and the culture, I’m hoping that I can fill my time doing more exciting things and bring you along through my journey as well. Staying for a second semester was a rather late decision for me….Continue Reading Guess who’s back 나는 돌아 왔어!

Step it up, step it up, it’s the beginning again/ -KARA, <Step> To the dismay…Continue Reading Brace-Step
Welcome back to my blog! So much time has passed now, and we’ve already reached the end of January! Time really does fly by so fast, huh? This post is dedicated to the Lunar New Year break that started last Friday and continued to Tuesday earlier this week. I didn’t realise this five-day break would…Continue Reading A Well Deserved Rest!
If you are reading this and you are from New Zealand – you do not know the meaning of cold until you have experienced a Korean winter. Monday just been, Korea was the 2nd coldest country on the globe that day. It’s not the type of cold you can brave and have the “she’ll be…Continue Reading Winter in Korea
