Traveling in the U.S.

While there are too many cities to go in depth for each place I’ve visited, I figured I could talk about transportation for a few that I’ve been to. Of course, your first thought might be to drive. And while you can do that, sometimes it’s not the most cost-effective or convenient to do so,…

Travel Introduction

For those who know me, you probably are aware by now how much I like to travel, and how much traveling I have done in recent years. Because of that, I figured it might be fun to talk about the places I’ve been, some tips I have when traveling in those places, and the top…

Higher Education: America vs. England

My overall disclaimer is this: since I only went to undergrad in the states and only went to grad school in England, my comparisons are not as accurate as say someone who obtained a master’s degree in both the U.S. and England. BUT I think I am qualified enough to speak about my experiences in…

I Survived My First Semester As A Master’s Student

Yay! The semester ended just last week, and my final assignments were submitted January 7th. Yes, that means I was doing homework over the holiday break, but let’s not talk about that. Instead, here’s what I learned through doing these assignments: Market research My first assignment was to write a report on US and UK…

Adjusting to school

So this past week was the start of my classes. Since it’s been four years since I graduated from university, I thought I would share my experience with adjusting again to school life, not to mention adjusting to school life in a different country.

An Adventure in Atlanta

Kicking off 2020 right. At the end of January, only a week before our trip to Vancouver, my friend Melanie and I headed to Atlanta, Georgia. Why Atlanta, you ask? For a K-pop concert, of course. Even though Atlanta wasn’t on my bucket list, I think going to a K-pop concert is a pretty darned…

What I Miss About Korea 한국 안에 무슨 보고 싶어요

I’m sure some of you were expecting this post eventually, and I didn’t want to disappoint! It’s been about 4 months since I’ve returned home from South Korea and there are many things I miss about it. The first thing would probably be food. Korean food is amazing, and if you haven’t tried it before,…

#Adulting

  So I have recently discovered that adulting is hard. Some of you might be nodding and smirking at this very obvious discovery, but since this blog is to share my personal experiences, I thought I would share this one. Moving to Korea at the end of 2018 was the first time I experienced living…

The Prodigal Daughter Returns

It’s been just over three weeks since I have made my return to the U.S. and you might be wondering what I’ve been doing. Of course, I’ve been visiting friends and family and spending some quality time at home. Actually, one of the first things I tackled when I first returned was cleaning out my…

Traveling Before the Final Destination

As some of you might know from my previous posts, I decided to take a vacation to Thailand after completing my teaching contract in Korea before heading back home to the states. As I was packing to move out of my apartment for the next teacher to move in, I was preparing for this trip…
