Finding Food: Hanyang Edition
No matter where you travel to, a country’s cuisine is always something to look forward to! Trying a bunch of different food is probably one of the most fascinating parts of any trip.

Little trip to Malaysia!
April 10, 2019 I forgot to talk about my trip to Malaysia! Recently I went with a couple friends to an island called Tioman Island in Malaysia. I had spoken previously about how I haven’t traveled to other countries outside of Singapore because I wanted to stay on budget but Malaysia was actually not too ...
I’d like to order, please
It’s obvious that traveling to a foreign country after taking the minimal language course is not the most optimal choice if you’re trying to communicate well with others. I was often reassured by others that Koreans actually know a lot more English than we expect, and that everything would be labeled in English. To some ...
Eating Your Way Through London: Borough Market
In my opinion, one of the most exciting aspects of traveling is being able to try different foods from all over the world! London is home to over 35,000 food establishments. Included in these establishments are large food markets with hundreds of different merchants selling their creations. Some of the more popular London markets include ...
The City of Neighborhoods

With thirty-two ...

These events were very helpful in introducing and orienting us to London. On Friday, after a few hours of orientation meetings, we were scheduled for ...
Shopping Galore!
Being away from home for over a month, I can understand how difficult it could be to budget, at least in the beginning. It’s a new country. It has new places to explore, new things to buy, and new things to try. All of this can quickly get really pricey and as college students, we ...
Just Touched Down in London Town!
I thought writing down the directions to our new house, Metrogate at the Foundation for International Education, would be a good idea. I would not have any cellular service when we arrived in London, England, because I planned on setting up a new sim card here. So, I followed directions the “old-fashioned” way, and wrote ...
So much fun!!…Now time to study
March 15, 2019 So, to continue on a couple more of the things I did…I went to Universal Studios, I went on the Luge Rides and I went to a water park! Universal Studios was really small and we were able to get on all the rides with very minimal waiting. (The food was so ...
Don’t feed the monkeys…
