The Park Front Hotel @ Universal Studios Japan: Everything You Need to Know

Posted on July 5, 2018 by Lexi • Leave a comment

The hubby and I aren’t really ones for staying at expensive hotels. We’re more of a best bang for your buck kind of couple. That being said, we do have certain criteria in mind when choosing a place to say: cleanliness, price, location and amenities. Stuff that I think is pretty common for most travelers. … Continue reading →

Cool Japan 2018 had special rides, shows and merch from Sailor Moon, Final Fantasy, Monster Hunter & Detective Conan which will only be at the park for … 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 →

Gudetama Cafe (ぐでたまかふぇ)

I love theme cafes! They’re unique, fun and the food is always beyond cute. For my birthday, my boyfriend and I had lunch at the Gudetama Cafe in Osaka! Originally it was meant to be a temporary pop-up, but it had gained so much popularity that they completely renovated the space and made it a permanent … Continue reading →

After a long day at Universal Studios Japan and exploring the wonders of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter the boyfriend and I were absolutely famished. So we decided to explore Universal City Walk. Takoyaki (fried octopus balls) are one of Osaka’s specialties and I had head that the ones at the Takoyaki Museum were not to … Continue reading →

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter! This is where a real adult goes to celebrate her birthday, at least that’s what I tell myself. Last month I went to Universal Studios Japan with the boyfriend, and even though we’ve been to the one in California, it was still a lot of fun and actually quite … Continue reading →

Last month, my boyfriend and I took a trip to Osaka to celebrate my birthday. It was our first time going to Osaka, but we both knew a trip to Universal Studios had to be made. Coming from L.A., Universal Studios wasn’t a new thing for us. However, the one in Osaka has something the … Continue reading →

When I was in Osaka, it was by chance that I happened to come across a fantastic little bakery that specialises in sweet potato-based pastries. My boyfriend and I were transferring subway lines at Osaka Station when I got wind of a sweet and familiar aroma wafting through the station. Sweet potato! I was able to … Continue reading →

I just recently returned from my first trip to Osaka, which I took with my boyfriend to celebrate my birthday. While there was a lot we wanted do, we both agreed that the new Pokémon Gym was an absolute must see! The gym is fairly new, having just opened on November 19 at Expo City in northern Osaka. … Continue reading →

I love cooking at home! Korean dishes are actually quite easy to make, but they usually tend to be pretty time consuming. However, this is a pretty quick and easy 김치찌개 (kimchi jjigae) recipe imho. So, if you ever find yourself with a bunch of kimchi on your hands... give it a try! ☺
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.
