Las Vegas!! February 2020

Summer’s cousin came to visit in February!! We had such a great time, seriously – but I worked the majority of the time. While I was working, they visited all the hotspots in LA and on the coast. For part of the time they flew up to San Francisco and explored around there, then flew…

First Few Months in USA

You don’t realize how hard it is to get set up, or how much work it takes, until you have to do it. Especially since normally, you do it one thing at a time at a certain age – for example, getting your drivers license – but doing all of that all at once is…

Our Wedding in Korea: November 2, 2019

We had started planning our wedding back in January, planning for a November wedding. Had we known we would leave we would have changed the timing! I left from LA and flew via Toronto. My parents left the same day and left from San Francisco, and we arrived at the airport about 2 hours apart…

May 2019: Parents Meet Parents

My parents were gracious enough to fly out to Korea in May 2019 to meet Summer’s parents for the first time. And of course we had to show them Majang Meat Market! No visit is complete without a baseball game! And my dad had to get fitted… Same with my mom… As Summers parents took…

Rome, Italy: September 2018

Continuing my parents’ round the world trip celebration thing, I joined them heading over to Italy.  They spent half their time in Rome and half in Florence, and I spent two full days in Rome, then went to Milan for the F1 race with some friends.  I sincerely think Asiana needs a new color scheme.…

Tokyo, Japan: August 2018

Without a doubt, Tokyo has become my most-visited city. I think a lot of this is because it’s so close to Korea so it can be an easy weekend trip, but also because I genuinely really like visiting. The food is great, the city is clean, the people are nice, and it’s easy to get…

Sightseeing in California: June 2018

In June Summer visited the US for the first time and we helped throw a party for my parents, it was my dad’s 70th birthday party and my mom retired from teaching!! I was able to snag roundtrip in business for the both of us for the price of an economy class ticket using my…

New Orleans, Louisiana: April 2018

In April I met up with my siblings first in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and later New Orleans to see some family we hadn’t seen in a really long time. But first, getting there! The family beat me there though. They arrived as I was starting my journey… Always enjoy the window view… Always love dessert.…

Home for the Holidays, California: December 2017

Whew what a bit of posting over the past few days! This is my last post covering 2017, and looking back, what a year!! As is the usual I flew back to the states for Christmas. Given United’s new 777 I had to route through Japan so I could fly it again. At this point…

Phuket, Thailand: July 2016

Off to Thailand! I was definitely excited to visit Thailand as I had never been there before and had been wanting to go for some time.  Having my parents along for the ride just added to the fun! Of course heading to the airport was super simple in Hong Kong, and it makes me jealous…
