Dear Readers,

It has been a while since our last update, but we are back with some exciting news. We are officially relaunching the site with a fresh vision!

What’s New?

Moving forward, this blog will operate under a personal format. I, the site administrator, will be directly curating and writing the content. You can expect posts focused entirely on my personal experiences living in South Korea, along with practical tips and insights gained from daily life here. Stay tuned—new stories are coming very soon.

Korean shawarma — the diet version 😅

Inside the thin rice wrap: carrots, cabbage, chicken, crab sticks, and lettuce… Cheese sauce is poured on top, and there’s cheese sauce inside too… Very tasty!!!

Good morning :)

It feels so fresh outside after the rain… I decided to walk to a café and get some work done in a cozy atmosphere… The aroma of hot French tea, calm and soothing music, and a dog greeting me at the entrance, wagging its tail and happily shuffling its paws 😌

They also treated me to a cookie at the café… 🤗

I was out for a walk and stopped by a café… I bought one tea, and they gave me another one for free… They said, “No need money…” That was nice 😌

A lot of cafés have a second floor… It’s cozy up there :)

I bought a ticket to some movie… I have no idea which one 😅 The screening starts in 14 minutes.

In the restroom, I mistook the mouthwash for soap 😂 I was wondering why it was not lathering properly… And why anyone would make soap mint-flavoured…

Then I noticed some paper cups beside the “soap dispenser”… Was I supposed to pour it into one of them and take it to my sink? 🙄

The soap was right next to it, in the neighbouring tap 😅

Kindergarten 😊

They are well equipped both outside and inside. The teachers are young women with the appropriate professional education. Special buses bring the children to kindergarten and take them home. The monthly cost is about $300 per child. This is not expensive for Koreans, considering that an average family earns around $7,000.

P.S. I’m at LOTTE MART now :) I reached it while walking around and exploring the city… At the moment, I’m sitting inside a cinema auditorium. The Wi-Fi here is free and very fast.

It really is just around the corner from my house 😅 A dog lured me into this café 🙄 I was walking past when she ran up to me and asked to be petted… I stroked her once, and she started pressing her face and paws against me… And wagging her tail… Ah, how could I resist? 🙄

I went into the café and ordered iced tea and a cheese bagel.
