Who wouldn’t want to go to Thailand with its white sand beaches, green waters, and friendly people? While Thailand’s tourist economy is booming, Phuket and Bangkok are shoobie paradises. During my venture, I had the opportunity to tour Phi Phi Don and Phi Phi Lae (and pray to escape the hoards of people). I was excited to […] Read more…
In light of my Japan wasn’t awesome posts, I want to reiterate and tell you all why Okinawa was the shizz. Japan offers a great deal to many expats and these are also some reasons why I miss Japan. I made many friends who were so kind and warm hearted. I miss them a lot, […] Read more…
UPDATE: Cafe Drama in Seoul is permanently closed. Seoul is an area of great entertainment where you can indulge in sheep cafes to raccoon ones. Korea is the land of convenience where you can get anything delivered any time and anywhere. One cafe I was looking forward to visiting was a princess themed cafe where […] Read more…
This week’s guest post comes from my handsome successor, Nick, who took my place in Okinawa. He just started his blog, so be sure to show him some love! You’ll really enjoy Nomadic Nick because he’s doing what I should have done when I first moved—properly documenting his experiences and giving advice on his travels. […] Read more…
Korea has an enormous couple culture. It’s all about your significant other in Korea. There’s matching couple outfits, shoes, couple apps, rings, and the list goes on and on. You can get couple rings whenever, but the 100 day mark is when many couples decide to take the leap and get one. When you’ve weathered […] Read more…
UPDATE: Aaron and I are no longer together, but I’m choosing to leave this blog post up I’m focusing on the good memories and positives. 🙂 This is a post I’ve been nervous to share for awhile. It’s literally been sitting in my draft box waiting to see the light of day, so here is […] Read more…
I love Autumn. Okinawa only had three seasons: winter, spring, and summer. I hadn’t experienced an Autumn in Asia until I went to Kyoto and Nara, but let me tell you, it was a real treat. In Korea, I have been enjoying the warm days and cool nights that this particular season brings. I had […] Read more…
Applying to teach abroad may be a daunting task. If you’re looking for the easy way to come over, programs like Interac or working at Eikaiwas in Japan sound good for the most part. If you’re considering Korea, you might go the Hagwon route, but know that not all Hagwons are created equal. Like all […] Read more…
UPDATE: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, One Day Hanbok has been temporarily closed. I recommend renting from Hanboknam instead because they’re still open and cater to foreigners. I’m sure if you’re here you’re probably thinking… Where to rent a hanbok in Seoul? Like literally, where can I get my hands on one of those beautiful […] Read more…
2024 UPDATE: The Bau House Dog Cafe in Seoul is permanently closed. In Asia, the more unique the cafe, the more everyone wants to visit. If you’re a dog person like me, you NEED to check out the Bau House Dog Cafe in Seoul. These sweet fur balls are also up for adoption or have […] Read more…
UPDATE: Happy Kira Kira Paradise located in the shopping mall HapiNaha is permanently closed. I’m a Sailor Moon fan and I don’t hide it. Thanks to this anime I began to question where it came from, leading me to pick up a book about Japan, and fall head over heels in love with the country. […] Read more…
