When it comes to being adorable, no one does it better than Etude House. They rock the cutesy, kawaii look better than any other (big) K-beauty brand, imho. Back when I was in Korea, Etude House always stood out thanks to their BRIGHT pink house-like exterior. Every Etude House store looked like Barbie’s Dream House,…
I’ve been loving Nature Republic for a damn long time now — and this ain’t changing. While I know there are myriad other K-beauty brands out there that are perhaps more sensible and high end, there’s just something so fun about the high street K-beauty brands. Plus, I actually like a bunch of their products, and the…
On Thursday night, we returned from an epic jaunt across a few oceans (I’m being deliberately vague on that one because my geography ain’t so great. But oceans were definitely involved). If you’ve noticed a bit of a lull round these parts, you’d be correct in assuming that I had a few other things on…
A little while ago I filmed a video (or series of videos – my camera kept dropping out) about my hagwon. It was a pretty difficult time, filled with a lack of communication, undermining and just general deference to the authority of “tiger moms”. I sort of filmed the video to get some stuff off…
I know I talk about it a lot, but I lived in Korea for two years and loved it. Yes, it can be a bit foreign sometimes and you probably won’t understand a lot of what is going on (or is that just me?). But even though I am over here loving Malaysia, I really…
Okay, so I know it’s really not Monday… but still, surprise! I realised after the last Monday Vlog that I had forgot to put a bit of extra footage in. Couple that with the fact that I haven’t taken many shots this week and you’ve got this bumper/catchup/binge session on your hands. Yep, I’m good to…
Hi friends! The Monday Vlog is back! Yet again on a Tuesday… which seems to be becoming a bit of a theme. I know I’ve been a bit quiet on the blogging front lately, but on Friday Gav left for the States so I was prioritising him (aww). Now I seem to have so much free…
Hi friends! The Monday Vlog is back with a vengeance (even if it’s on a Tuesday)! This week was a tad busy with Halloween and the impressively stubborn virus that I became very well acquainted with, which made the weekend that much sweeter. I may or may not have collapsed Friday night when I got home, but…
Hi friends! So I started writing this post a while ago and then left it “to sit for a while” (which is a bit of a habit of mine). Twenty-seven is one of life’s big milestones (not), and I thought, what better way to commemorate it than by telling y’all some useless pieces of information about myself?…
Hi friends! So today I am bringing you the first in a hopefully long and victorious series. As y’all know, I love Guri with all of my heart and in my time here I have found a number of little gems (mostly food-related) which I feel everyone in Guri, Korea and perhaps anywhere else too…
