It's been a while since I talk about cafes. The past few months I didn't really explore cafes...but now semester is done, I could finally catch up with friends and eat! In this post, I will show you 4 cafes that I tried recently in Brisbane. Stay tuned for recommend Instagram-friendly place in the next post!

1// Miss Jones ★★★★☆
Miss Jones is a relatively new cafe in New Farm. The design is absolutely cute and girly, very Instagram-able. We ordered Kewpie Chicken Burger and Egg Benedict on waffles, but the avocado toast came accidentally and we didn't realise and ate it lol. But the friendly staff didn't charge us extra, so end up two of us shared three dishes.

Kewpie Chicken Burger (AU$16) ★★★☆☆
Egg Benedict (AU$19.5) ★★★★☆

As the title said, summer is over! I am more than happy to back to warm Queensland winter/spring. Anyways, I travelled to South Korea last month with my family for 8 days. I know, Korea again, but I still really enjoy going to new places in Jeju Island and Seoul, despite the heat. I will try link everything, official websites and Korean name, hope it's helpful.

DAY ONE
O'sulloc Museum (오설록티뮤지엄)
First place we visited after renting car. It is a green tea field, plus museum, plus Innisfree workshops. We tried the green tea cake, which is really good! (I found there's another O'selloc cafe in Seoul, at Dongdaemun, so don't worry if you are not in Jeju)
Camillia Hill (카멜리아힐)
After visiting the museum, we went to Camilla Hill, which is a flower garden with artsy decorations. Lots of couples came here to take photos (for the gram) and their selfie tools are epic! They brought a tripod and walked around in the garden, and it's really hot in Jeju (respect).
DAY TWO
Cheonjiyeon Waterfall (천지연폭포)
One word to describe day two: sweat. I sweat A LOT. We did a lot of hiking, exploring the nature of Jeju. The lake is in a beautiful blue. It was suppose to be a waterfall, but no water is falling...it seems like it's too hot and no rainfall recently.
Jeju 3D Trick Eye Museum
I wasn't really excited about going here, since I have been to 2 trick eye museum before. But when the heat came, I need to go in and enjoy some air con! We spend almost 2 hours here, take photos and tea time.
Then we head off to Lotte Outlet (not planned) and shopped some skincare products from Innisfree. For dinner, we randomly went into a abalone place and we had a seafood hotpot. YUM!
DAY THREE
Jeongbang Waterfall (정방폭포)
Day three was slightly less sweaty. We visited another waterfall, which directly running water to the ocean. Some kids even went in to the water to cool down. Walking on the rocks are pretty danger, don't forget to wear sneakers!
Food. We went to a really nice cafe called May飛 cafe (카페메이비) randomly. The boss was so nice, she knew we wanted filling food while the menu only shown light mea, she ended up provided a pizza option that was not shown on the menu to us. And she could speak English, which is a huge plus! We also ordered ham and cheese beagle, fries and some drinks.
Dinner, we actually researched and visited this place for lobster pizza. Lobster pizza I mean real lobster sitting on top of the pizza. It was really epic and photo-friendly.
DAY FOUR
Seongsan Ilchulbong (성산일출봉)
Last full day in Jeju Island, we hiked up Seongsan Ilchulbong, also called 'Sunrise Peak'. It is a signature scenery in Jeju and formed by volcanic eruption thousands years ago. We can see the beautiful Jeju Island on top.
After the hike, we went to eat Issac Toast, which is right outside the entrance of Seongsan Ilchulbong. I tried their toast last time in Seoul and finally got to try it again! It's not a ordinary toast, but honey coated and sweet!
Later that night, we drove back to the city area and did a little shopping in Dongmum market. We also went to Black Pork Street, which really near our hotel, to eat bbq black pork.
DAY FIVE
Common Ground (커먼그라운드)
We took a morning flight to Seoul. It was about an hour flight from Jeju to Seoul. After checked-in and settled, we walked around our hotel, which locate in Dongdaemun, did some shopping. Then we took the subway to Common Ground, a shopping plus design place build with blue shipping containers. It is definitely a place for Instagram pictures...lots of young people stand around the blue containers to take their best shot. 
DAY SIX
Edelweiss Swiss Theme Park (에델바이스테마파크)
After a day in Seoul, we checked-out and rented a car to Gapyeong, a countryside area about 2 hours away from Seoul. We also stayed a night in there in a cute house...but only have one air-con in the living room. Anyway, first stop is Edelweiss, a 'Swiss' village with different art and exhibitions. It's not really big, and it was very hot that day, we quickly walked around and off to next destination.
The Garden of Morning Calm (아침고요수목원)
I didn't visit here last time when I went Gapyeong. It is a really beautiful garden filled with plants and flowers. I think spring or winter would be a better season to visit here, summer probably not the best time for flowers.
Petite France (쁘띠프랑스)
Before the sunset, we stopped by Petite France, which is pretty similar to Edelweiss. I went there 3 years ago, back then, My Love From The Star, was really popular. They shot one of the episode in here, and ever since Petite France has become really popular for tourists.
DAY SEVEN
Gapyeong Rail Bike (가평레일파크)
If you watched Runningman before, they visited a couple rail bike before. Finally I got the chance to try out! My mum picked this rail bike because it's less popular and shorter. We arrived earlier to make sure we got the spot, otherwise we might have to wait for an hour. Make sure you check their timetable before hand. It was tiring but really fun actually.
Namiseom Island (남이섬 종합휴양지)
I'm back to Nami Island! There're nothing really different, except the weather...it was really hot. We ended up walked around for 2 hours then hop back to the boat. Then we drove another 2 hours back to Seoul.
DAY EIGHT
Sadly, it's our last day in Seoul. Me and my mum went to Ewha Women University to shop, but sadly we don't have enough time to visit the Pink Hotel from Sytle Nanda in Myeongdong. Anyways, we end up spend more time shopping in Dongdaemun then took a shuttle bus to Incheon airport and head home.

This trip I definitely spend some best time with my fam, despite the heat, it was fun and lots of food! It was good to revisit some of the places and I hope to visit again, maybe in winter (no more sweat...) Some places I didn't take photo, but I included in my vlog. So make sure you check out my vlog:
SEE YOU,

Hello Internet, today's post is all about my trip to Taipei. In early July, I went to Taipei with my friends for 4 days. We didn't plan much, basically eat, eat and eat.
 After we arrive and put down all luggage in our airbnb, we went to 上引水產 (Addiction Aquatic Development). It is a place where they sell seafood and sushi, all the Japanese dishes. We ordered sushi, sashimi, cold noodle, tempura roll and belly pork.
