A city with Seoul
Looking back at my posts, I realised that somehow Seoul got hardly any mention at all! Ahh not a biggie, one might say. It might not be my favourite city in the whole world, but certainly has a special place in my heart. After all, I did live on the outskirts of Seoul for a year, and discovered many interesting places by the end of … Continue reading A city with Seoul
The Hardest Part Of Traveling No One Talks About
by Kellie Donnelly (from here ) I can’t think of a better way to describe how I felt when I came back home. 🙂 Thank you Kellie “You see the world, try new things, meet new people, fall in love, visit amazing places, learn about other cultures – then it’s all over. People always talk about leaving, but what about coming home? We talk about the hard parts … Continue reading The Hardest Part Of Traveling No One Talks About

Shopping in Osaka
This is how the story goes. A few months ago I was lucky enough to go to Osaka. What a nice city, I have to say! As it often happens, it was one of those solo trips that I do quite often. However, that trip to Japan was rather memorable, because in every city I visited, I met some lovely people. No, really, very interesting … Continue reading Shopping in Osaka

The Good One
A few weeks ago a friend recommended a cafe, which apparently serves the best coffee in Auckland. It’s called Good One. Good name, one may think, but in reality, the conversation goes something like this. “Oh hey you, do you want to go and grab a cup of coffee?” “Sure. Where do you have in mind?” “How about Good One?” “Yeah, I also want a … Continue reading The Good One
God save the Queen a.k.a thank you for the long weekend
I definitely enjoy being out and about on the weekends. This long, Queen’s birthday weekend was not an exception. Nothing too extravagant, just a nice long stroll around Auckland city, lunch at a rural cafe and exploration of a beach not too far away from the city. If you want to follow my foot steps, here are some directions. *Auckland Museum – Auckland Domain, Newmarket. … Continue reading God save the Queen a.k.a thank you for the long weekend

Sapporo – searching for a winter wonderland
All I knew about Sapporo before going there was that it gets pretty cold up there, they make good beer and it is kinda in the middle of nowhere. Oh and of course they get a lot of snow. After a short, but rather eventful trip there, I know just a little bit more, but somehow I totally fell in love with the region and … Continue reading Sapporo – searching for a winter wonderland
