I ran into this perfume a couple of days before in Seoul and I definitely loved it (it’s from Le Labo). A unique take on the “icon of citruses,” the lemon, Citron 28 reflects Seoul, “a city rooted in tradition and history, yet at the forefront of all that is modern and forward-thinking.” where it…Continue Reading Citron 28 – Seoul City Exclusive
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.

Guess it’s time to wrap up these updates! The past three months felt like forever but also like they went by in the blink of an eye. I’m back in NZ now, savouring the last few days of warm weather before it gets cold again. I say that, but it has just started raining pretty heavily (and…Continue Reading Final Update

In our Korean language study abroad programme, we had the opportunity to apply for the Doumi programme. The Korean University’s Doumi programme pairs and connects new students in our language study programme with Korean students from the university. During this Doumi programme, local Korean students become our ‘Korean Buddies,’ helping us get comfortable with the…Continue Reading Adventures of my buddy programme
