Backpack B's

Greetings from my kitchen, again! Do you ever start the weekend thinking that you are going to accomplish all sorts of things? Only to realize that you have no motivation, or inkling in your body to get out and do it. Well, that was me. It’s now Sunday and I’m a bit ashamed to report [...]

Sharing a bit of Korea Autumn magic with you! Hope you enjoy the colors and enjoy your weekend too!

You know, we have been living in South Korea for quite some time now. There are still just so many different things on my list that I want to get out and experience while living on this peninsula. This weekend we had a change of plans, so we decided to tackle one of those touristy [...]
