Lately I have been publishing mostly bookworm related stuff so today I am going to break the monotony by looking back at the year that was in terms of travelling, exploration and adventures. Although it is already midway through the month but I believe it is never too late to write a new piece about […]

Kamsahamnida, South Korea
November 2, 2017 Just like that, my friend and I wrapped up our South Korean adventure as we spend our last full travel day here in the land of K-Dramas, KPop and Oppas. *Deep breath*. How time flies, FAST. It was just like yesterday when we landed in Incheon, brimming with enthusiasm. Who’d have thought […]
South Korea Day 11: The Village!
November 1, 2017 Joy and I are capping our nearly two-week excursion in a city that I have long wanted to visit – Jeonju, the capital of North Jeolla province. To be honest, I have never heard of the city until I started watching The Return of Superman. Jeonju is a usual haunt of Lee […]
South Korea Day 10: Farewell Busan and Hello Jeonju!
October 31, 2017 Taejongdae Park was an amazing experience. It is a very idyllic and relaxing spot. If only I had the luxury of time, I would have spent the entire day simply walking around the vast park, breathing in the sea, the mountains, and the pine breeze. And although walking is physically taxing, I […]
South Korea Day 10: The Hundred and One Tales of Taejongdae
October 31, 2017 After our long and exasperating first day at Yonggungsa and Gamcheon Cultural Village, Joy and I decided to explore Taejongdae Park. Our friends who have been there two weeks earlier did recommend it to us. Before proceeding there, we had to pack our things and prepare for yet another journey. After Busan, […]

The area surrounding the station […]
South Korea Day 9: Busan and the Sea
October 30, 2017 Although we still have a couple more of days to scour every part of Korea that we can, Joy and I woke up to the realization that our South Korean journey is drawing to a close. It feels like the days quickly passed by and it is already our ninth day. If […]
South Korea Day 8: The Warmth of Gyeongju
October 29, 2017 Bulguksa has revived our spiritual stamina but the healthy Korean buffet we fad after revived our physical stamina. Moreover, it was our cheapest meal in South Korea and it was all worth it. It was just unfortunate that we couldn’t make it to Seokguram Grotto. Although it was technically part of the […]
South Korea Day 8: Falling in Love With Gyeongju
October 29, 2017 Our first day in Gyeongju has been a truly memorable one. Despite the crowd and their suffocating presence, Joy and I had a wonderful time stamping our presence all over the place. We basked in the history and the Gyeongju scene. Even though we have been here for just a short while, […]
South Korea Day 7: Making Dreams Soar!
October 28, 2017 And our Gyeongju excursion After exploring every nook and cranny of Daereungwon Park, Joy and I explored further. All over the park and its proximities are numerous mounds. There is a tranquility that I felt while we were walking around. It is miles away from the tumult of urban life, something that […]
