When I left Amsterdam, it was bittersweet. I fell in love with the place but was also ready for a new adventure, and the next country on my Europe tour was the most significant to me because of my heritage. I got on another train and headed for Cologne, Germany. Cologne Cathedral I initially planned […]

Artsy Amsterdam
On the first day of August, I took a morning train to Amsterdam. I was excited for the energy and the vibrancy Amsterdam has to offer, and it just so happened that I was there during the weekend of Amsterdam Pride. I knew the city would be alive with tourists and locals alike, partying and […]
Blunders in Belgium
In the morning, I took an Uber to St. Pancras International train station to catch my Eurostar to Brussels. I figured I’d just hop on the train and settle in for the 2 hour ride, and I arrived at the station early and hungry, so I went to a cafe inside the station for some […]
Off to Hogwarts
On my seventh day in England, Jenni and I took a cab to the most magical place on earth: Hogwarts! Well, to be exact, we went to the Warner Bros. Studios where the films were shot. The Studio tour (The Making of Harry Potter) was one of the first things I reserved when planning my […]
Loving London
The night after my Stonehenge and Bath trip, I made my way to West End to see my first Broadway show in London – Aladdin! I’m a huge theatre/musical nerd and I wanted to make the most of my time in London by seeing as many shows as I could. I’d only seen a handful […]
My Solo Europe Trip – Excited in England
My 9-week solo trip around Europe began as I landed at Heathrow Airport. The 11+ hour plane ride had done all it could to deplete my energy, but I was too excited to be tired. I had finally made it, after years of longing to visit the land of Jane Austen, Harry Potter, tea and […]
My Solo Europe Trip – Preparation
I prepared for my 9-week solo trip about a year in advance and actually surprised myself by deciding to do it. One Sunday afternoon, my husband and I were taking a walk and I told him how much I really wanted to go to Europe before we have kids. I grew up listening to my […]
Back from Europe!
So, I just got back from my 9-week-long solo backpacking trip around Europe! I visited 11 countries, 30+ cities, countless museums and lots of amazing bookstores. I’m still recovering from jet lag and the trip as a whole, but soon I’ll start writing posts about each leg of my trip. It was such an amazing […]
A Solo Saturday in Seoul (feat. HIGHLIGHT)
When I first moved to Korea, I went to plenty of concerts. The first one I saw in Korea was actually with my husband. We went to see Beast, one of my favorite k-pop groups. He was really bored, though, so I knew if I wanted to see them again, I’d probably have to go […]
