A Fun Night Out in Daegu: Cocktails, Club Hopping, Coffee and Claw Machines
First and foremost, I am certainly not a party girl. My idea of a fun night is great food and some wine at home with my favourite people. However, every so often it’s fun to swap a cosy night in for a night of dancing with friends—and that’s exactly what today’s post is all about. […]

Michael Review: A Biopic Fueled by Passion, Nostalgia and Genius
With the weather warming up—a little too quickly—I’m trying my best to spend more time away from the embracing comfort of my home. Because, well let’s be honest, there ain’t no way I’ll be leaving my house once that notorious Korean summer stakes claim to the land…and my sanity. That being said, last weekend’s outing […]

2026 Life Update 2: Teaching Middle School, Social Life Shifts & Long-Distance Marriage
And just like that, April is coming to an end. I’d say my theme for the past month centred around being an adult even when I really wanted to be a kid. April was my month of instilling new routines that I’m rather proud to say have become habits. And that’s one of the defining […]

Recreating a Durban Bunny Chow in Korea: A Taste of Home
A Little Piece of Durban in Korea I might be wrong, but I think I’ve yet to mention that I’m a Durban girlie🥰. The city of eternal summer and home of the Zulu Kingdom on the east coast of South Africa. We also have the best food in the country—yes, I’m biased but it’s true. […]
3 Easy Mussel Recipes: Pasta, Risotto & Creamy Mussels
3 Easy Mussel Recipes: Pasta, Risotto & Creamy Mussels I’ll be honest, I didn’t exactly think it through when I bought 3kg of mussels. I was just taken by the price (₩9,900!), which felt like a bargain… until they were delivered to my door step. Still, I made the most of it and somehow turned […]
Finding Joy in the Little Things: Classroom Decor, Mini Chocolate Cake & Kitchen Upgrades
Finding Joy in the Little Things: Classroom Decor, Mini Chocolate Cake & Kitchen Upgrades I may not have done that much over the past month, but the little things make all the difference.
