Florence: A Colorful History

The first thing I noticed about Florence is the colors. It’s one of the major factors that differentiates it from other cities in Italy which I’m inspired to apply onto my wardrobe. Palazzo Vecchio, the town hall of Florence where you will find rooms filled with art from top to bottom. No matter how...

Florence: Home of Beautiful Things

Heard that the Statue of Liberty in New York was inspired by this. Do you see the resemblance? Where Leonardo Da Vinci, the greatest artist of all time, is buried. I actually found out that his tomb was located at this church after seeing his name there. I know most people get a lot...

Firenze: Home of the Renaissance

The picturesque view of the city of Florence reflected in the Arno River taken on the Santa Trinita Bridge. The Ponte Santa Trìnita (Italian for Holy Trinity Bridge, named for the ancient church in the nearest stretch of via de’ Tornabuoni) is a Renaissance bridge in Florence, Italy, spanning the Arno. The Ponte Santa...

Toscana: The Morning After

After an attack of Tuscan mosquitoes all night, that is. The husband declared a war around six in the morning for which he decided to open every single window in the apartment in an attempt to freeze them to death, which almost killed me, too. It must have worked though, because we didn’t see...

Nothing to Wear

Outfit from a month ago in front of our studio in Paris. I would rock this outfit again since these pieces are some of the more rare items in my suitcase (meaning, not worn as often as other ones; I’ve been wearing some of them every single day for the past 5-6 weeks) but...

Venezia: The Floating City

On a indescribably cold night in Seoul (heard that we almost saw the first snow of the year), sharing some peaceful Venice photos as a way to temporarily remove myself from reality, or as a therapy. I’m stranded at home for another week due to a complete lack of wardrobe both appropriate for the...

Switzerland: where autumn and winter coexist

As soon as we said “good-bye” to the winter snow, autumn leaves in their signature shades of green, yellow, orange, and brown greeted us. Since we had a little over an hour to kill at the Montreux station, we decided to cross the street to explore the neighborhood a bit. We had no idea...

Switzerland: Fondue and etcetera

After feasting on the most delicious Fondue ever (and of course, done right) on the night of our arrival in Switzerland at a restaurant popular among locals, per our wonderful B&B host’s advice (whom I highly recommended, by the way: look up Eric here and on Air BnB), we decided to take a train...

Mind the gap

Whether it was the lime-flavored Airborne or the mask I wore throughout the entire flight (which by the way not only ridiculously covered the half of my face making me look like I was deathly ill, but apparently worked as a repellant to keep myself from being approached by anyone; people probably thought I...
