One of my favourite things about Korea is definitely the shopping. Normally when I say that people are like “oh is it really super cheap?” and to be honest that aspect of it is kind of just normal (well compared to Australian prices) but there’s just soo much more variety (SOOO MUCH MORE) and everything about the …
I’m back with a new tip, one that is little known but oh so amazing. Picture this: your last day in Korea and your flight is later that night. Your hotel checkout is 10am in the morning and you don’t want to spend your whole day hanging around the airport, or being worried about picking …
Let’s be real, sometimes you just need some Budae-jjigae. Or some “throw-in-everything-delicious” jjigae as I like to call it. For a bit of history Budae-jjigae is also called Army Base Stew. After the Korean War food was scarce and so people merged the traditional jjigae with surplus food items from the US military bases, like spam …
Continuing with posting my Arts-watching repertoire… ^.^ This review was originally posted on Hello Asia! — Excitement builds from the very moment the orchestra starts playing the overture for the Korean production of 42nd Street. The crowd is already clapping along as the curtain rises ever so slightly from the stage to reveal countless pairs of synchronised tapping …
Now this is one that I managed to get a LOT of experience in, ha. I think I ended up going to around 10 musical performances while I was in Seoul? If only I could have fitted in more… I could go on & on about this, since Korean musicals are one of my favourite …
What better way to start Phase 2 than with my number 1, my most important production that I have seen, the incredible Dracula in Korea. I was lucky enough to be invited to the Press Conference for Dracula, which is part of what made it so special. The only international media! They even wrote about me in the …
There were some seriously crazy hot days in Sydney these past few weeks, sporadically thrown in amongst the cold and wet days… Spring yay! I actually do really love Spring though, and not only because my birthday is at the end of this month (Halloween!) but because the weather is generally a nice mix of …
When I was in Seoul last year I had the immense excitement of visiting the headquarters of ZANYBROS and chatting to co-CEOs and Directors Hong Wonki & Kim Junhong. I love the work they produce and I have a huge amount respect for the “Bros”. Being able to talk with some of my biggest inspirations was a surreal moment. Not …
Last weekend I popped down in-between dance practices (for K-Pop Summit!) to Darling Harbour for K-FEST 2015! The weather was perfect and quite a crowd had gathered around by the time I got there, enjoying the performances on stage, chatting to the KTO about travelling to Korea (jealous), trying on beautiful Hanboks, making pretty lanterns and snacking on some …
Sydney weather seems to be getting all crazy with the changing seasons so I thought whether (ehh 😉 ) I should do a little travel tips post on my experiences travelling through the weather in Seoul! For starters here are the approximate months and seasons that I have been in Korea for: December – January: Winter July: …
