Video: Eating Healthily in Korea

Hi friends! You may know that I recently started my Monday Vlog series, which is hopefully going to be a regular thing (occurring on a Monday, yknow?). On top of that multimedia onslaught, I bring you a backlog of vlogs which I took over the past year in Korea. Some of these are happy, some…

27 Things in My 27 Years

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?…

Sample Sundays: feat. Etude House, Skinfood, Tony Moly and more!

Hi friends, Whaddaya know, Sample Sundays is back 2 weeks in a row! How’s that for consistency?! In all seriousness, I’ve been working hard to plan posts in advance so that I don’t leave you guys for so long again. Also, in case I contract another appetite-killing, joy-destroying virus, at least you won’t have to…

My HUGE Empties Video – Part 1!

Hi friends, So after Tuesday’s big post, I wasn’t quite sure how to follow it up and thought I’d lay low for a while. I had actually planned to post something very different that day, but then it didn’t seem appropriate, even in the days following. But I think we’re now all ready to light…

A Short Guide to Living Like a Korean

Hi friends, Right now it is spring in Korea and it is glorious (when it’s not raining). After the brutal, subzero winter we had (it was no polar vortex, but still), I feel comfortable telling the world that it is increasingly lovely over here (most of the time). Although it is often dusty (*cough* thanks China *cough*),…

Vlog #3: The Night Before Hagwon

Hi friends! Today brings us the latest in a series of vlogs I started last year, when I first arrived in Korea. This episode is a particularly delirious video filmed the night before starting at my hagwon. It’s so interesting looking back on this because I remember how I felt – and it ain’t how I feel now!…

Vlog #2: First Night in a Love Motel

Hi friends! Long time no posts. After coming down with a horrendous virus over the long weekend, I managed to pass the sickness onto Gav so we have been under the weather for a combined week. Not fun! But you will be pleased to know that I am back, stronger than before and most importantly…

My Seoul Wishlist

Hi everyone, As you are probably well aware, I am currently living in Korea teaching some mischievous children and having a great time. I’ve gotten into the swing of things here and have my routine, which I always appreciate. We even have a coffee place in our building which we call before we go downstairs to save…

Sample Sundays: Skinfood Black Sugar Strawberry Mask Wash Off (Review)

Hi friends! So you may remember (but probably won’t) a loooong time ago I stated that I would be writing a review on Skinfood’s Black Sugar Strawberry Wash Off Mask. Also, that it would be part of my Sample Sundays series and would thus come out on a Sunday. Weeellll, half of that is still…
