I don’t get to travel as much as I used to, but all travel posts go here!
While I can confidently say that on the whole, this trip to Okinawa was a success, there is one thing tha I wish I did differently. I really would have liked to stop by more Michi no Eki. Michi no Eki is literally translated as “The station for roads”, though in my mind the Japanese… Read More Memory Rest Stops
Lately, I have been obsessed with buying Mamianqun (Horse faced skirts). It’s part of my growing fascination with hanfu — traditional Chinese clothing. While I have bought a few modernised Tang and Song dynasty outfits, the first piece of hanfu I bought was a mamianqun and the pieces I’m most often drawn to are mamianqun. … Read More Wearing Mamianqun in Okinawa
Here is something else that I forgot to talk about!! When I met up with one of my friends in Lille, we decided to go to a tearoom. And you know how I love tearooms. But anyway, this post is less of a review and more of a “I went there” type of post because… Read More Visiting Meert’s Tearoom in Lille
Having visited the Cadbury World in Birmingham and Chocolate Story in York, you might think that I’ve had my fill of chocolate museums. Well, my family certainly had their fill but since my boyfriend has never been to a chocolate museum, the two of us decided to visit Choco Story Brussels! To be honest, I… Read More Visiting Choco Story Brussels
Dear Nice, The first time I landed at your airport, I was shocked to find out how hot it was. Last week, when I revisited you after more than a year, I was also shocked to feel the lingering summer heat. But that is where the similarities end. The first time the plane touched down… Read More a nice letter
Yes, this post is going to be as weird as the title sounds. I was looking for things to do over the new year’s break and I heard about the Forever Twenty Cafe in Johor. Since I was already planning to go to Malaysia a little early for work, going for this cafe sounded like… Read More I tried painting on toast!
One thing that I wanted to do (and surprised myself with how much I wanted to do) in Seoul was to wear hanbok! So one fine day, my boyfriend and I set out to try on Korea’s traditional dress and hopefully visit a museum at the same time. Alas, the museum visit was not to… Read More Wearing Hanbok in Bukchon Hanok Village (and a tea museum?!)
I was in Seoul recently, and since I had some free time, my boyfriend and I decided to visit the Beautiful Tea Museum! I saw “we decided” but really, I am the tea addict here and he was happy to accompany me there. I heard about Teastory Beautiful Tea Museum from a friend on Instagram!… Read More Visiting Teastory Beautiful Tea Museum in Seoul
I’ve always had this vague idea that it would be nice to see the lavender fields at the end of my stay in France; it’s something that I’ve talked about with friends. But I never really thought I would be able to do it, since I was moving back around the end of June and… Read More I got to see the lavender fields!
Ordinarily, I wouldn’t go to an Attack on Titan exhibition, but my boyfriend is a big fan of the series so I thought it would be fun to go with him! I know a bit about what the manga is about, but I don’t know about the details and I figured that this way, I’d… Read More An Attack on Titan newbie goes to the Attack on Titan exhibition
