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
Cafes, vacys and 슈퍼주니어??!
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??!
The Mid-term Survival – All yield to Iced Americano…?
Sike! Well, firstly let me tell you the love Korean people have towards an Iced Americano. There’s an old saying (not that old actually) here in South Korea that is “Even if I freeze to death – Iced Americano”. Whenever Koreans go to a cafe, 99.9% of them would order Iced Americano – any season,…Continue Reading The Mid-term Survival – All yield to Iced Americano…?
Guess who’s back 나는 돌아 왔어!
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!
Final Update
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
Queer in Seoul
When I arrived in Korea I didn’t really have any expectations in regard to making friends. Obviously, I wanted to make friends but I also know that is easier said than done. I am someone who values quality over quantity in friendships and would rather invest time in one person instead of in shallow friendships…Continue Reading Queer in Seoul
This stop is Seoul, South Korea
Time has been flying past recently.

Lunar New Year
Everland Theme Park Since the Lunar New Year was the only holiday we got during our exchange, we decided to make a trip to the Everland Theme Park since it is outside of Seoul. This was an amazing experience; we did not realise there would be so many incredible animals; it was like a whole…Continue Reading Lunar New Year
The Last Week
I didn’t go to a theme park recently, but the past few weeks have been a bit of a rollercoaster. To put it nicely, I had a bit of an experience at a hair salon here, and as a warning from me to you: don’t get your hair bleached if your shower doesn’t have a…Continue Reading The Last Week
Not Ready To Leave :(

Many fun things have been happening, and I’ve been trying to cram everything in now that the time to leave the…Continue Reading Not Ready To Leave 🙁
