Jeju Island, Jan. 2017

In January we were in Jeju for a short trip. I miss driving there because the road is much wider and drivers are more easy going. 🚙

Ogyeopsal anyone? It's pork belly from Jeju with 5 layers of fat I think. 🐖🐷🐽

Because it was during Seollal(national holiday), we had to wait for the restaurant to open. It's tough travelling during holidays...

I also caught some pokemons here 👾

omg... the best burger ever. It compares to shake shack... pork belly patty was real juicy 😋 I think it's called 허브팜 and the address is 제주 제주시 애월읍 애월해안로 11 

We went kayaking in the Jungmun or the southern area. My arms hurt a little but it was fun!

They also had pig pens where you can see and even play with them. 

We found a little cafe to enjoy our afternoon ☕

That's all for this this post! Thanks for reading :)

Busan, December 2016

Hi! Here are some photos from Busan last winter. I got noodles with seafood and dumplings in Sasang, which is near Gimhae Int'l Airport.

Yummy and very cheap 😛😛😛

Since I went first and my husband was going to arrive later, I decided to go to Baekseok station and take in the scenery. It's next to Haeundae and there're tall residential buildings, so you can't miss it.

I stumbled upon the Cinema Street of Haeundae. There were movie posters on the wall and there's a spot where you can take a picture with the bridge in background. 

One of my favorite bridges--Diamond Bridge 🌉⟢

Not so crowded because it's chilly.

It's still Haeundae, so there were events going on like concerts and stuff.

Ray and his fish friend 🐟🐠🎣🚙

Year of the rooster...happy holidays!!! 😀 🐔🐓

We got some lobster(around $30) and it was pretty good. If only I can eat lobster every day...😋

This was at a bar around Haeundae. They had nachos, too~

Not many photos since it was a short trip... but I really enjoy Busan each time I go there. Till next time~

Tanah Lot, Bali DAY 4-6 July 2016

Hi! I'm back with photos from Bali, which are really overdue. We went to an oceanside temple called Tanah Lot. Since we stayed in Seminyak, we could only go to nearby tourist attractions that are about an hour away.

The weather was sweltering hot... keep in mind and bring sunglasses and hat to almost everywhere in Bali 🌞😎

Picturesque much? This temple may not be as well known as the Uluwatu temple, but also popular and on many magazine covers.

Near the entrance of the temple

Fortunately, it was not raining on this day :) In Bali, the rain comes and goes even when it's sunny--which can ruin your pictures.

Our Balinese guide told us that the temple was built around the 16th century.

We saw some monkeys hanging in the temple 🐒🐵  we wanted to see them close, but our guide warned us that they might steal things 😓

This guy looked friendly.

We also went to a coffee factory recommended by our guide.

Piles of coffee bags!

These paintings are made of actual coffee beans. The third one with a blue background is former president Obama. (he was at that time.)

They gave us a few cups of coffee to try, and I loved it! We bought coffee worth $100, ground and packed. I gave them to family and coworkers when I got back home.

The guide also took us to a big mall in Seminyak called Centro Mall.

My brother loves bracelets made of little seashells and wooden beads, so I got it for less than $10 here. (although it wore off after a few weeks 😆) Don't expect anything special here. Maybe spices...? They have a spice set which has 10+ wrapped in plastic bags so you can try them. Like cumin, nutmeg, and chili.

Our meals at the mall.  Fairly cheap.

Do you like it? (Est-ce que tu aimes ?)

Do you like it?

Arthur H:

Do you like it

When in old west movies

The Indians kidnap

The sheriff's new wife?

 

M:

Yes, I like it!

 

Arthur H:

Do you like it

When in old west movies

The Indians turn the young white woman...

 

M:

Into a sublime native woman?

Yes, I like it!

 

Arthur H:

Well, then:

 

Well we'll go and live free

In a wild land

And our weapons will be

Love and courage!

My friend, don't be afraid,

I'll know how to defend you

With a good boot's kick

On the rattlesnakes

 

M:

Do you like it

When in old west movies

The hero walks away, lone as a dog?

 

Arthur H:

Oh yes, I like it!

 

M:

Do you like it

When in old west movies

The hero comes back and completely guns down

All his old enemies?

 

Arthur H:

Yes, I love that!

 

Well we'll go and live free

In a wild land

And our weapons will be

Love and courage!

My friend, don't be afraid,

I'll know how to defend you

With a good boot's kick

On the rattlesnakes

 

M:

H? H?

 

Arthur H:

Yeah! What is it again?

 

M:

Do you like it

When in old western movies

The lone hero, under the moon

Tames a black thoroughbred?

 

Arthur H:

Yeah, yeah, that's okay...

 

M:

Like, it's really good!

 

Arthur H:

Yeah, that's not bad!

Do you like it, M,

When, at the whorehouse,

A young mocking singer

Makes the cowboys

Crazy with desire?

 

M:

Oh, ugh! I don't know anymore!

 

My friend, don't be afraid,

I'll know how to defend you

With a good boot's kick

On the rattlesnakes

 

M:

Do you like it

When in old west movies...

 

Arthur H:

Yes, I love it!

Est-ce que tu aimes

Dans les westerns
Quand les Indiens kidnappent
La nouvelle femme du shérif?
Oui, j'aime!
Est-ce que tu aimes

Dans les westerns
Quand les Indiens transforment la jeune blanche...

En une sublime squaw?
Oui, j'aime!
Bon, alors
Nous irons vivre libre

Dans un pays sauvage
Et nos armes seront
L'amour et le courage!

Mon ami, n'aie pas peur
Je saurai te défendre

Et d'un bon coup de botte
Sonner les serpent à sonnette
les serpent à sonnette
les serpent à sonnette
Est-ce que tu aimes
Dans les westerns
Quand le héros s'en va, seul comme un chien?
Oh oui, j'aime!

Est-ce que tu aimes
Dans les westerns
Quand le héros revient et descend calmement
Tous ces vieux ennemis?

Oui, ça j'aime!
Bon alors

Nous irons vivre libre
Dans un pays sauvage
Et nos armes seront
L'amour et le courage!
Mon ami, n'aie pas peur

Je saurai te défendre
Et d'un bon coup de botte

Sonner les serpent à sonnette

les serpent à sonnette
les serpent à sonnette
Est-ce que tu aimes
Dans les westerns
Quand le héros seul, sous la lune
Dompte un pur-sang noir?
Ouais, j'aime bien, j'aime, j'aime...
Est-ce que tu aimes
Dans les westerns

Quand, au bordel
Une jeune chanteuse moqueuse

Rend fous de désir, fous de désir
Tous les cow-boys?

Comme ca, auais
Ouais, j'aime bien, j'aime, j'aime...
Alors
Lalalalala
Lalalalala
Lalalalala
Lalalalala
Mon ami, n'aie pas peur
Je saurai te défendre
Et d'un bon coup de botte
Sonner les serpent à sonnette
Sonner les serpent à sonnette
Sonner les serpent à sonnette
Est-ce que tu aimes
Dans les westerns...
Oui, j'aime!

Taking a break

Wow, it's been a while! I got married in June, 2016 and was in the middle of posting my honeymoon pics. I think my trial ended for Adobe, so I stopped and forgot about my blog until now :O sorry!

I've been freelancing in Korean to English translation (mainly game, film, and IT) using CAT tool called SDL Trados Studio and teaching English and also taking classes in design. I'm going to Japan in the first week of May, so lots of pics coming up! (including the delayed pics from Bali)
