It’s September! Holy cow. Last I checked, I was suffering from the humidity in July, and then I was swamped with work in August . . . it’s really amazing how fast time go by as we get older. Now, I hope time will slow down a bit for the next six months because it’s time for all the US holidays to start! I’ve been waiting for this. I get a four-day weekend for Labour Day, and then another long weekend in October along with my ten-days vacation, and in November . . . yes. I’m ready for the days off! In the meantime, check out what I’ve been up to for the last two months, which involved eating a lot of good food, going on a de-cluttering spree, finding old money, and buying a new tech gadget.

Aigoo Adventures: Busan 2017

July 16, 2017 @ 2:36 pm

Whew! I’m finally here to share my Busan trip. I’d been occupied by my other hobbies, so I fell behind on my blogging schedule, of which I am absolutely fine with. I’ve also been exhausted from work, my commute, and the more-than-usual travelling I’ve done. I can’t say I’ll be returning to my regular blogging schedule that I’ve kept up for the past 2.5 years. I’m just tired. Going to Busan taught me that regular travels and summer travelling doesn’t suit me. Despite those little bits of life lessons, I did have fun in Busan to the best of my ability. Read on to see what I did :)

Quite a few things have happened to me recently. I returned from my Busan trip, but I wanted to write about my other happenings before I share all the full details of my trip. Work has kept me busy for the most part, but I still have found time to try and do new things. Also, an awesome blogger gifted me a special pillow. So read all about it :)

Aigoo Adventures: Kyushu 2017

June 17, 2017 @ 2:08 pm

Last month, over Memorial Day weekend, I travelled back to Japan to visit Fukuoka and Karatsu! I chose to visit there mostly because I wanted to see Karatsu Castle, which was featured in Yuri!!! On Ice as Hasetsu Castle. With Karatsu being an hour away from Fukuoka by train, I decided that it made sense to fly into Fukuoka and find accommodation, and then just do a quick day trip to Karatsu and still have a bit of time to check out Fukuoka. Plus, the plane ticket was so cheap ($157 roundtrip with Jeju Air!), and so off I went on a short weekend trip to Kyushu, the southernmost island of mainland Japan. Enjoy this post about my trip, and keep an eye out for my next travel post in July, for I am making my way to Busan!

I am back with a new TC’s Treasures post. When I posted this in April, before my trips, I hadn’t had many favourites then. After my trips? My list of favourites went on a major expansion. From a tech gadget to Japanese and French beauty products to Japanese snacks to Japanese airline, this list just exploded. Do check out the things I have been loving! Let me know if you’ve tried any of my favourites. My next post will be about my Fukuoka trip. But first, my favourites!
