Hi! Welcome back How are you today? Sad? Tired? Hopefully not. And even if you are, what about some cake? Macrobiotic Diet Well, before we get into that there is something I wanted to talk about today. It has been a few years since I have first stumbled upon an Instagram food post including all these weird numbers and letters – 21C… turns out it was all about macros. Macros are short for macronutrients aka all the main nutrients – carbohydrates, fats, protein, and more, that naturally occur in the food we consume. You know the label on the back of your Lotus cookies that’s so tiny you can’t ..read more

Welcome back! How is your day? Is it rainy or is it sunny? Is it oatmeal or smoothie kind of weather? Or both? As I am writing this post it is still damn hot in Seoul. Perfect for only leaving after the sunsets. A bit depressing but we do what we have to to survive right? Since the world is still in the note of a global pandemic most of my work keeps me in the confinement of my house. Yet, lucky as I was to be able to keep some of my means of earning money last year I was always leaving in the evening after all my classes finished to my part-time job. Since the temperatures in the late evenin ..read more

Welcome back! It felt a bit bad to write this because it has been just so long since I really worked on full-length recipes and I was wondering if I even remember how to do it I mainly post on my Instagram ever since I moved to Korea, but even there there is a lot of great recipes to try so don’t sleep on it, please But today, I wanted to share with you another creation of mine (and it’s sweet again?) that surprised me enough with both the taste and the beauty. I just felt like it deserves a full-blown post, as it is just so good. What am I talking about? fresh Pecan Bars My Raw Pecan Carame ..read more

Hello! How are you doing today? It is still sunny but quite chilly as I am sitting at my desk, writing about my recent adventure. Rathe impromptu adventure, hence I am not sure where to even begin. As you can probably guess from the title, today’s adventure is again none other than food adventure. I finally managed to tick off another long long-awaited goal from my list of vegan must-visit places in Seoul. After the beginning of the semester, everything got a little too crazy. Every day feels hectic like none other and just when you thought it would end, more stuff appeared. Yet, I’m not here ..read more

Hello! How are you doing today? I wonder how many years have you been following me – I hope it’s been a while. If it is you may know I am an avid coffee drinker. I am actually a former barista? Shitty barista but still. I love this black magic liquid a lot but finding a good one in Korea has been tough. Despite the extreme number of coffee shops in the country, the beans here were mediocre at best. However, in recent years the cafe scene has been growing. Many independent small shops truly started challenging themselves and brought epic coffees to the table. Today’s adventure is actually a res ..read more

Hello! How are you today? I wonder what is actually happening when I am finally uploading this post finally – I have to admit, it takes me horribly long to publish these at times. I sometimes just get a random idea for a video/post and since I can’t shoot at least I want to write it down. Today is one of those nights (yes, I started typing at night). But as this reaches you I hope you are enjoying some pretty sunny day. But back to my idea: Chinese (Korean) food tour. And it is even one accompanied by a YouTube video! Chinese Food – But In Korea (and vegan) Korea has nowadays a huge variety o ..read more

Hello! How are you today? I hope you got to enjoy a pleasant morning, afternoon, or evening. Whatever you prefer. Time flies like crazy and somehow we are nearing the second year living in the new world, or what might now be considered the new normal. Who knows how it’s going to look like from now on. Nevertheless, some things have changed for the worse and some for the better. One of the nice things for example is the increasing amount of vegan places around Seoul. It’s impossible for me to keep up with them anyway. But I shall try. So today, let me take you to another lovely vegan establishm ..read more

Hello! And Merry Christmas! How are you today? I’m here sitting in my chair, eating yesterday’s leftovers, shivering in the blanket that is wrapped around my whole body. The winter has definitely come, and with it hopefully the end of the semester as well. At least for you… I was welcomed to the Yonsei winter semester. Somehow, that involves so much more work than I expected – who said that grad school won’t be too bad? The business and all the work at least give me a lot of excuses to run outside into the cold and search for delicious vegan food to fuel me through it all while I was still in ..read more

Welcome back! How are you doing today? Recently I have been finishing uploads of the tours and there seems to be no end to them but actually, it will come. Slowly but surely, I have exactly three more tour posts ahead of me before I have to wrap this epic 2021 traveling season. I have been immensely lucky to get to explore so many beautiful places around Korea and I hope you enjoyed them at least a bit. This time, we are continuing the Korea Adventure Program, on our second to the last tour of this season. Do you remember my previous Jeonju and Chungju trips? Today I have another day trip for ..read more

Hello! How are you today? It’s been a while since I started this “tteobaki” series and somehow we are at the end of it. If you are still not familiar with what I am talking about checking out my two previous rural adventures – one to Iksan & Buyeo and the other to Daegu and Goryeong. For the past three months, I have been touring the Korean countryside showing you all about its interesting crafts and experiences. And today is the last one. Where are we wrapping up our adventure?
