Godzilla Cafe in Korea: Cafe Ookii ( 카페 오오키이)

Posted on September 6, 2019 by Lexi • 5 Comments

Over the years, especially throughout childhood, I found myself collecting all sorts of things from Beanie Babies and Disney figurines to McDonalds toys and Pogs (remember Pogs?). I’ve had a lot of collections, many of which still reside in boxes at my parents house, but none of them quite compare to Bae Tae Hyun’s Godzilla … Continue reading →

How to Spend One Day in Osaka

Posted on May 31, 2018 by Lexi • 1 Comment

Osaka is an amazing place to visit. In fact, I’d even go as far as to say that I may like it more than Tokyo. Not to say that I don’t love Tokyo, just that Osaka has a different charm. This wasn’t our first trip to Osaka, and it’s far from our last, but every … Continue reading →

My constant need to be in the company of animals always seems to take me to the most interesting places. From dogs and cats to owls and meerkats, I just can’t seem to get enough. This time around, I found myself in Osaka surrounded by some adorable new feathery friends. Kotori Cafe is a cute … Continue reading →

Jinhae Cafe: A Civic Center Coffee (어씨빅센터커피)

Posted on May 10, 2018 by Lexi • 1 Comment

Any time I go anywhere, I always look for unique cafes in the area to check out. So, on our way to the Jinhae Cherry Blossom Festival, we decided to drop by cafe I had scouted out on Instagram, A Civic Center Coffee or ACCC. The cafe is located on top of a small hill … Continue reading →

Jinhae Cherry Blossom Festival (진해군항제): Tips, Tricks & Pet Travel

My husband and I had been wanting to check out the Jinhae Cherry Blossom Festival (진해군항제) for a few years now. It’s one of the most popular cherry blossom festivals in Korea, but it’s also a bit of a journey to get there, especially if you live in Seoul. This year, we finally decided to … Continue reading →

Afternoon Tea @ Tea Rose Garden

Posted on October 6, 2017 by Lexi • 2 Comments

It’s a standing tradition anytime I’m back in California, I take my baby sister out for some afternoon tea. It was a special little ritual I started with her back in 2013, when I returned to California from Korea for the first time. Granted I’m not able to make the trip back as often as … Continue reading →

My First Ube Experience: Café 86

Posted on September 15, 2017 by Lexi • 2 Comments

I have slowly been compiling lists of cafes and restaurant I want to try when I travel and then low key stalking their Instagram accounts while I work out at the gym. It may be a bit masochistic, but it motivates me to work out with the promise that at some point I will get … Continue reading →

Inside Seoul’s 1st Ever Comic Con

Posted on August 12, 2017 by Lexi • 4 Comments

The unimaginable happened. Comic Con came to Seoul. Cue the fireworks!!! To be honest, I wasn’t sure if I was going to be able to make it because of my schedule. Also, there was a lot of talk about how the event was going to be a huge flop. However, about a week before Comic Con … Continue reading →

Picture Yourself @ Social Club Seoul (소셜클럽서울)

There is something very rewarding about finding pretty places on Instagram and then actually going to those places. While I do come across many of the cafes I blog about by chance, there are those that call to me from the alluring images on Instagram. Social Club Seoul was just such a place. I was … Continue reading →

Hanok Tea & Coffee Shop: Cafe LN (카페 루덴로켄)

Posted on July 11, 2017 by Lexi • 3 Comments

One of my favorite things to when I’m in Samcheong-dong (삼청동) is have tea in a traditional Korean house, aka a hanok. Actually, there are quite a few hidden spots down the quiet alleyways away from the hustle and bustle of Seoul’s fast paced life. Some are modern style coffee shops wrapped in the traditional exterior … Continue reading →

I've loved afternoon tea ever since I was a little girl and to be honest... I still do! I love all the little sandwiches, mini desserts and the beautiful tea sets. It just always made me feel fancy.
Lunar New Year (설날) was super busy for my family and I this year, so I didn't have much time to post about it.
There are plenty of cheap or even free fun things to do in Korea if you know where to look. For the first time since the pandemic, the ice skating rink in front of City Hall has returned.
I love 설날 traditions, but my favorite is the food. Food is my love language. Even though it's a lot of hard work, preparing this special meal for my family is one way I get to express my love for them ❤
새해복 많이 받으세요!!! Wishing you all a wonderful Lunar New Year from our family to yours 🐰
I love snow days in Korea. There is just something so magical about Seoul covered in a blanket of fresh snow. It's almost like a fairytale.
There are tons of delicious finds when you go to a traditional market in South Korea... but you haven't truly lived until you've had dinosaur roasted marshmallow ice cream.
My husband and I have totally different skin types, but in the winter we both have trouble with dry skin. So, we thought we'd mix things up this winter with a little moisturizing night routine.
BTS's Jungkook is well known for supporting small business and good causes and this is one business was more than happy to purchase from!
