I’ve spent a lot of time this year talking with K-beauty brands and CEO’s, looking for the secret to healthy and youthful looking skin. While their answers and product recommendations varied a bit, the one thing that remained consistent was HYDRATION. So, I built my winter night routine around this information and the results have not disappointed.
No visit to a Disney park is complete without splurging on churros, waffles, or even the errant beer. And we’ve had some amazing snacks at Disney parks around the world. Who can forget the ham and cheese Mickey waffle in Shanghai? Or DisneySea and their cornucopia of flavored popcorns!?
Disneyland Paris has all the hallmarks of a traditional Disney Park. But there are so many things that set it apart. Amazing shops, quirks and foods that are worth indulging in to make the most of your time in the most magical place on Earth… in Europe.
Winter festivals in Seoul are a great chance to go sledding, play carnival games, catch some fish… and then eat the fish. The Hangang River Winter Festival will run until February 12, 2024, so don’t miss out!
La Boutique Du Chateau, located in Belle’s castle at Paris Disneyland, is the park’s best kept secret. Most visitors will be drawn to the carousel or the castle walk through and miss this shop completely. Which is a shame, because at this special shop, it’s Christmas every day of the year.

Cafe Pokpo is located in the northwestern end of Seoul, just outside walking distance from Hongdae Station. It’s famous for being the only cafe with a view of a waterfall in Seoul, but it’s barely just. It’s about 15 minutes by bus from the nearest subway station and much longer by foot. But while getting there may be a bit of a hassle, it’s worth getting away from the busy city center to enjoy a bit of nature.
Korean food comes in all shapes and colors, but for my money, there’s nothing that beats a savory stew. That’s…
If you’re into clean vegan minimalist Korean skincare and you haven’t heard of Mixsoon… then you need to. I’ve had a few chances to try out their products (with no any strings attached) and I suspect they’ll be popular in the K-beauty scene.
