Friday 27th September Cafés – they bring comfort, fuel our caffeine addictions & serve as a host environment for chatting with friends. Autumn in particular sees more customers than ever, as passers-by seek for warm with a pumpkin spiced latte or in Korea a hot café latte remains a favourite. Thesedays I continue to visit…

Diary 14 – Now it’s Summer.
It has exceeded more than a month since I wrote a diary entry… Now its Summer. Not a lot has changed in my life since my last update, but just because nothing has moved forward in my life, time being the only thing to progress, I don’t think things are going poorly nor something to…
Diary 13 – Overcast.
Sometimes I like rainy days. The pitter-patter of rain drops falling and trickling down a window pain or umbrella is relaxing. Sometimes rainy days paint an overcast slate grey sky, that can make 2pm on a Summer Monday resemble a cozy September evening. Lately indoors has become more of a comfort once again: I’m regretful…
Diary #12 – Coffee helps ☕
I’m unsure how to describe the week just past… It’s had it’s highs, then again it’s had it’s lows just as any week for the majority of us. All I know is that coffee helps. Half of me is sick to death with social media being swarmed by the constant body shaming of others, and…
Diary #11 – ‘Get it beauty’ con & turning 24 💄🎂
Tuesday 30th April I met up with my new friend Mara for some lunch, followed by coffee. I’m sure she won’t mind me introducing you to her as she also is present in the beauty blogging seen, just over on Instagram. It was only our second meet-up, so spending the afternoon together helped us to…
Diary #10 – Just go for it 🙌
For the past week and a half, I wouldn’t say I’ve experienced a sudden serge in confidence, yet I’ve certainly lived by the ‘just go for it’ motto. With this attitude in mind I have been able to speak-up a bit, sitting less in silence. I still think it will take some time to coax…
Diary #9 – My mind is muddled.
I’d say it’s possibly surpassed a week since I have felt like writing anything. I managed to type-up a product review sometime last week, but to be honest it felt forced; then again I feel pleased with myself that I was productive in some shape or form despite feeling ‘low’ (?) I thought it wouldn’t…
Diary #8 – Grey skies & rainy evenings ☔🌧️
Happy Mother’s Day too all the Mums with us today and to those who are with us in spirit. Thank you to all of those who fulfil the roles of Mothers; whether they be Dads, Uncles, Aunites, a Grandparent, Godparent or simply an older friend who makes us feel loved, safe and provide guidance whenever…
Diary #7 – Kimbab, new home & too many lattes.
This week commenced with packing the mountain of clothing which I somehow have accumulated, yet still rotate between the same four or five outfits. I’ve become fairly good at packing thanking to my liking for organisation and moving between France, the UK and Korea over the last couple of years. Then again, I should probably…
Diary #6 – Strawberries & Uplifting Giggles 🍓💻
This week has been relatively hectic in comparison to the week before. One thing I’m glad about is waking up at a sensible, decent time each morning, and actually having the best week of sleep I’ve had in months. Next week I have no choice but to move apartments; the new owner of my current…
Diary #5 – Early Spring is here 🍃⛅
Thursday 7th March The realisation finally hit me, that we’re already one week into the third month of this year. I’m going to be 24 years old in a little under 2 months! I’m a tad reluctant to be happy about my birthday, especially as I’m overally aware that I’m only 5 years away from…
Diary #4 – Soosa Sushi & Grill 🍣
Saturday 23rd February Saturday started early, well… prematurely to me at least. I woke up around 8:30am, not only because I had set my alarm for this time; but also due to my cats using me as their wrestle mat. Despite not having the most pleasant of awakenings, I briskly rolled out of bed (yes,…
Diary #2 – Dumplings & Dining in Seoul 🥟
Thursday 23rd March After managing to begin to give English tutoring sessions to Koreans a few hours per week, I thought I deserved to treat myself by indulging a little as the weekend approached. Simply to state caution was certainly thrown to the wind: barely a vegetable in sight! As much as I would like…
Diary #1 – The First Day of Spring 🌸🌱🌻
Friday 16th March – 2pm Come what may, I will always admire the blissful bitter breezy later seasons of a year with its crinkled fallen auburn leaves and frosty windowpanes. I will miss wearing clothing made of fluffy layed fabrics combined with an aubergine checkered tassel scarf and a khaki knee length tailored coat. In…
