The N.Flying Fan Con was the main reason I went to Macao in the first place. When N.Flying initially announced their fan meet in Seoul, I wanted to go, but my schedule didn’t permit it. Taipei and Japan were announced later, but neither of those dates worked for me either. Then came Macao, which was finally a stop that fit my schedu…

Away from the huge resorts and bright lights of Cotai, Macao’s old town shows a completely different side of the city. This is where you’ll find historic streets, Portuguese-influenced architecture, temples, churches, small shops, and many of Macao’s best-known landmarks. at the Ruins of St. Paul's The historic center is also co…

The Cotai Strip is probably the side of Macao that most people picture when they think of its huge hotels, casinos, shopping malls, and elaborate resorts. Everything here is big and polished, and even if you have no interest in gambling, there’s still plenty to see just by walking through the different properties. I was already head…

I stayed at Belive&More during a quick overnight trip to Macao when I flew in for a concert. Since I was staying in Macao for less than 36 hours, I mainly wanted somewhere affordable, comfortable, and convenient enough for getting around without spending too much time in transit. For such a short stay, Belive&More ended up w…

Cafe Far Ben is located in Seongsu-dong and has become particularly popular among BTS ARMYs because the owner is RM’s sister. If you didn’t already know about that connection, though, there’s really nothing about the cafe that would immediately indicate it’s BTS-related.

Salt bread has become incredibly popular in Seoul, and Jayeondo Salt Bread (자연도소금빵) is probably one of the names you'll come across most often. They have several locations around the city, including Seongsu-dong and Ikseon-dong, and I've walked past their stores plenty of times only to see long queues outside. I'm not re…

Haebangchon is a hillside neighborhood in Yongsan that feels noticeably different from some of Seoul’s busier shopping and tourist districts. Its steep streets are filled with small cafes, restaurants, local shops, and residential buildings, and with views of Namsan and N Seoul Tower almost everywhere. It’s also a good area to explo…

I was looking for somewhere to eat at Incheon Airport before my flight when I came across Hwangsaengga Kalguksu. I noticed the Michelin Guide recognition and figured it was worth trying, especially since I was already in the mood for something warm and filling before flying. Hwangsaengga Kalguksu is known for kalguksu , a Korean noo…

The BTS World Tour Arirang in Goyang was held on April 9, 11, and 12, and it marked the very first leg of the tour. It was the kickoff, the beginning of everything, and I already knew it was going to feel special before I even got there. my Day 1 fit: Hooligan inspired + the tour muffler for warmth Ticketing happened in January, and…

Taipei can be surprisingly affordable to explore, especially if you're willing to mix paid attractions with a few free ones. Some of my favourite places in the city didn't require an entrance fee at all, and many of them ended up being highlights of the trip. the famous rainbow crossing in Ximending If you're looking to…

Mozhuting Burning Noodles was one of those places I came across while researching on Tiktok where to eat in Taipei. It's a popular Taiwanese chain known for its Sichuan-style burning noodles, and judging by the number of people that started arriving while I was there, it's clearly a favorite among locals as well. I arrived r…

The Maokong Gondola is one of the more relaxing things to do in Taipei if you want a break from the city without actually leaving it. The gondola takes you from the edge of Taipei up into the hills of Maokong, an area known for its tea plantations, mountain views, and quieter atmosphere. I ended up doing it on a whim and was surpris…
