Leaving my Home in Seoul

For the past two years I’ve been so fortunate to have lived abroad. And in a lot of ways, Seoul feels like my home. I remember having a conversation with an old friend about defining this word ‘home’, both of us being South African and living abroad, and to her, home was not the town

Get the Best of Busan’s Beaches South Korea

Busan boasts some of South Korea’s most popular beaches, with Haeundae Beach probably being its main attraction.

90s Inspired Fashion ft. Olivia from Livbombs.com

This year I’m planning to do more style posts inspired by places, decades, movements and books I’m reading, taking in everything that I’m absorbing and letting that filter onto the blog and just playing around with fashion and enjoying it. This post is all about drawing inspiration from the 90s, which has had many fashion

Thoughts on Home

I want to go home, are the words I’d like to utter as I sit beside myself with no-one to voice them to. But what would it matter if there were? And where is home exactly? The idea of travelling and living abroad is an exciting one, one I would rarely opt out for anything

Lazy Sunday Morning in Seoul

I think by now we all have a Sunday morning routine. My Sundays back in Cape Town were all about brunching at good coffee shops with the girls and basically just enjoying the company of friends. Moving to Korea has obviously changed this as the idea of avo toast with a flat white is surprisingly

Seeking Adventure 2018

Happy 2018 everybody! Can I still say that seeing that it’s basically February already? January has been as relaxing as it’s been stressful, with ongoing work schedules throughout the new year period and a well deserved break thereafter I finally feel refreshed and ready for the new year (even though one month has already passed

The Coffee Collection 2017

I don’t have a list of perfectly crafted places for you, just moments I remember having, the ones that stayed with me, the ones that stuck around after months & months. And now, 2017 is nearly over and I spent a good amount of time either at a coffee shop, looking for a coffee shop

Finding your own Style

The Best of Seoul’s Coffee Shops – November

There’s something so satisfying about having that first sip of coffee, it’s the cautious sip, so as not to burn your tongue, the heat that it gives, the cream on your lips. The sweet sensation of its mere bitterness that makes you smile. I have a deep relationship with  my coffee, an intimate one, one

Catching the Sunrise in Seoul

There are so many things I wish I could do with my time and so many places I’d like to see but most of all, and I think inside of us all, is a person we’re striving to be. And there could be many facets within that alone, but building on your own character and

If you’re someone who’s not looking into buying clothes right now or just struggling to adjust your summer wardrobe in the colder months then hey, here’s a blog post for you! I’ve been pushing my current wardrobe to its limit by not adding anything new to it and seeing what ensemble I can throw on

A Photographic Journey through Yeongwol South Korea

We all have those days when dressing up is not an option, when all we want to feel is comfortable. My outfits are most often a representation of my mood and when I’m feeling down or vulnerable, anything over sized makes me feel instantly comforted and secure. On days like these, wearing jeans and an
