For our last trip, but first international adventure together, Gena and I booked tickets to Hong Kong over Lunar New Year. We figured, what better way to ring in a new year, and close another chapter in our lives simultaneously? Well, I must say Hong Kong lived up to every expectation I had ever imagined. But it might not be for the reasons you’d assume…

Between modern Hong Kong island, and authentic Kowloon, you won’t struggle to find an aesthetic of your choosing.

Ahhhh, it’s the day of love! And therefore a perfect excuse to reminisce about a “not-quite-love” story. Admittedly, the title of this blog post is a bit dramatic, but I needed to get your attention. I haven’t been very transparent about my personal love affairs on the blog over the last couple years. That being said, I did want to share this one. For shits and gigs. And because I hope some of my fellow female travelers can relate.

When I am about to leave a place I consider ‘home’, even if only for a short while, I usually write a letter and address it to the city. In the past, I wrote London a love letter, and New York City a letter full of lust. As my time has come to an end here in South Korea, it is only fitting that I continue the tradition.

After spending three weeks traveling through Croatia, I feel like I have a pretty good grasp on some of the best places to visit. I had the luxury of visiting many different locations in Croatia, including multiple islands. Whether you are based in Split or Dubrovnik, it’s very easy to visit a number of these islands along the Dalmatian coast. I’ve also included a couple bonus destinations, located on the mainland, that deserve attention and are easy to access.

I was privileged enough to visit the Plitvice Lakes twice while galavanting around Croatia for three weeks. Each visit presented different sets of circumstances giving me a great platform to present to you with some things you may want to keep in mind if you ever plan on visiting the lakes.

To ring in 2019, I celebrated at the Floating Palace New Year’s Countdown Party with GSM in Seoul. I squeezed loved ones, toasted a sky set ablaze with fireworks, and danced the night away. It was the perfect way to enter the new year, and one of the best NYE celebrations I’ve ever experienced. 2019 is already shaping up to be a year of promise, and I look forward to sharing my adventures with you. On that note, HAPPY NEW YEAR! Thanks, as always, for following me en route.

As with any post considered to be “negative”, I must add a disclaimer. There are so many things I enjoyed about living in South Korea – in fact you can read about them here. Moving to Korea earlier last year was one of the best decisions of my life. That being said, I would be lying if I said it was all burritos {or in this case kimchi} and rainbows. Continue Reading
