Day 13 We came in overnight with JJ Express and I have to say, best damn bus service I’ve had in a while. The seas were super plush, blanket, pillows, snacks, water, wifi, and outlets were provided. Although I’m not a fan of air conditioning,…
Day 11 Despite the hell that was traffic the previous night in Bangkok, Miriam managed to get into the Hua Mak area where I was staying. We got up around 7 to get our things ready for Myanmar. We managed to get to the airport…
Day 9 Bangkok, my 5th city on this little journey, also became my pit stop city. Admittedly, I expected Bangkok to also be my least enjoyable spot on this trip because it’s pretty much a tourist hub and couldn’t really see how it would stand…
Day 8 Angkor Wat often acts as the main impetus for travel to Southeast Asia, or so they say. Well after visiting, I’d say it’s a pretty good reason but not worth as much time as people say unless you’re really into Hinduism, Buddhism, Khmer…

Well here we are, all over again, ready to leave the country again immediately following the end of my semester at Ewha. Summer is way more like winter than you’d expect. My semester was filled with a learning curve for dance, a bunch of random…
I have some bad news. BWB has to renovate their space and will likely move the studio elsewhere, which means I will not be dancing for a while. Fear not. I will be trying out a new area I have been digging for a while….
Day 10 On election day, I awoke with nothing to do before a flight back to ol’ Seoul. Today was very important for the Taiwanese and it appeared that so many had left for the booths early as the morning was much quieter than previous…
