It’s been over two weeks since our little visit to South Korea but I couldn’t miss out on giving you a peek at our time there. Altogether, I really, really enjoyed Korea after experiencing it’s rich culture! While I was there I felt like I was in a limbo between western and asian culture. We visited a Korean palace (above), shopped in an underground subway station, and ate a ton of delicious korean food mm mm! I think one of my most favorite parts was just walking around the city of Seoul. There were so many bursts of life here and there. All I have to say is that if you’ve never been to South Korea, you’re missing out!
I got to meet up with these friends (below) the first day and they brought me to a fantastic fusion restaurant called School Food, yum yum! We also got to roam the underground subway for clothes. I absolutely loved spending time with them in their home country!

Summer Food
Since coming to China, I’ve been eating like crazy.
Here are some foods you MUST try:
Korean:
Korean BBQ Pork. Not quite barbecue at all, more like deep fried heaven. With a side of sweet and sour sause.
Kimchi. My favorite korean vegetable. The spicier, the better!
Korean appetizers. An assortment of all the best, and you don’t even have to pay for them, Korean service win.
Chinese:
Chinese “Zongzi”. Bamboo leaf rice dumpling. Filled with all kinds of surprises.
Soup Dumplings “Xiaolongbao”. Traditional dumpling with a twist. Caution: the soup you are about to drink is extremely hot!
Western.
Pastries. Who doesn’t love brownies, cheesecake and eclares.
Blended Coffee Drink at Coffee Factory. Best cold coffee drink I’ve tasted in a while. Maybe the best ever.
Cappuccino. Frothy goodness. Add a pack of sugar for the perfect balance of espresso and sweet.
