Thanks ReadingStar!
Being back home in Busan now is awesome. I missed Nicole way too much and just mentally, it feels right to be planted in one spot again. Having said that I do have to say that my two and a half month stint at Reading Star in Gwangju with some old friends and new, was … Continue reading »

The Lucky Weather
The lucky joys of Korean weather… while Florida is receiving torrential downpours thanks to TS Debbie and Colorado is stricken with awful wildfires…. Here is Busan, we have clouds and cool weather. As you can see by the weather radar from today, the storms pass between SE Asia, China and Japan, but leave SOK … Continue reading »
이병헌 Lee Byung-hun
This Korean man, full of hotness if I do say so myself has just become one of the first Asians to get a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He is best known in the US for GI Joe, but I loved him in the Korean drama Iris. Previously, Hong Kong director John Woo … Continue reading »
커피 샬롱 루이 Cafe Salon Louie

Kimchi jjigae 김치찌개
Thinking about all of you in Florida with the rainy weather. Here we have a Typhoon to the south heading from Taiwan to Japan.

While we immediately throw down our towels directly on the sand, not under an umbrella, take off our clothes and totally sport bathing suits… Most Koreans at the beach … Continue reading »
Pink… Nylon? Victorias Secret?
Korea you baffle me sometimes at your ability to get away with knock offs. I am not complaining though. Today I scored a VS Pink bra for about 4 US dollars. Do you see much of a difference? If you didn’t know better, would you assume this was Victorias? Like I said, Im not complaining. … Continue reading »
Bujan Shejang 부전시장
Our huge local market for food is only a fifteen minute walk away. There is also an art market about 20 minutes in the other direction, but we don’t frequent it. There you can find any supplies under the sun you might needwhen it comes to art projects. Back to the Shejang…our supplies usually end … Continue reading »
lunch on the run…
on my way for a sweaty hike I powered up with a cheap, yet highly effective snack. Around the block is a toast stand where they serve a few styles of toast sammys made to order. I scooped up a ham, egg and cheese with a healthy dab of coleslaw for a cool 1500! Topped … Continue reading »

I have just turned 32… 33 in Korean age. For the first time really in my life, I fell good and confident. I feel beautiful. It feels odd to say. I have had more than my share of incredibly emotional meltdowns over my weight or fashion or feel. Of course I would love for my … Continue reading »
