I recently shared about the gorgeous shrine Munmyo. Here are my pro camera pics of it. Such a stunning place and free to visit!

Some feet pics for you 😝

Some random images I took around in Korea

This is the park above Dongdaemun gate, called Heunginjimun Park.

You can get a little stamp here and walk next to the old city wall. It's part of the big city wall hike I did in 2014. And it has a great view over the historic gate and all the way to the DDP and Seoul skyline. You can see Seoul tower from here, too.

I hiked up Namsan Hill in Seoul!

It was hard, not gonna lie. But the view was so rewarding, and I felt like I accomplished something big.

Also, I learned that I can just take the bus next time. I'll do that for when I want to check it out for the night view.

Definitely one of the prettiest libraries I've seen. This is ELTE library in Busiest, Hungary.

Does in 1561.

This is the stunning opera house in Budapest, Hungary 🇭🇺

I only saw the exterior and foyer because I didn't book a tour or opera ticket. It's not open to the public otherwise.

While I stayed one month in Budapest, I also realised I needed to see a bit of the surrounding area.

I didn't feel like big day trips, so I went with a friend to Tata, which is an hour away by train.

It's a small town that sits on two lakes. There's a castle, a mansion and some smaller sights.

It was a nice, chill half day trip.

Travel friends, have you ever made it onto the plane after official gate closing time? The trains are stuck and I'm supposed to arrive as the gate closes. I'm checked in.

Interesting that they're feeling the everyday beer culture in my current home town as a 'sophisticated alternative' to Oktoberfest.

There just isn't an Oktoberfest here. But there are other local festivities, during the summer especially.

Every September, millions of tourists flock to Munich for Oktoberfest. However, the true centre of German beer culture lies in Bamberg: https://bbc.in/3MT4VAB

I'm honestly so confused about people's idea of hygiene.

Just caught a woman leaving the toilet without washing her hands. She flushed.

And she then started touching her arms all over. No using water.

I showed her where the soap was, in case she just didn't see. (Vor she clearly didn't even look for it)
And she looked at me confused. Very confused. I pointed at the soap. She was still very confused.

Saying she doesn't need soap. Then she left. Touching yet another door.

She had touched the toilet. The door handles. The lock. Just ew

Do I know anyone who has connections to established concert photographers?

Sunset over Budapest as seen from Fishermen's Bastion, the most popular photoshot in the city.

For a good reason.

25/09/2024

Check out the sun rising over the Budapest Parliament building on a chilly September morning.

I timed it perfectly and even did a timelapse video, which I need to edit before I show you.

But it's already so cool with these photos!

23/09/2024

Sunrise over Budapest seen from Fishermen's Bastion.

I can't believe I got up two days in a row around sunrise to capture this scene. I got sick for a day afterwards because my body is definitely not used to these hours and it got chilly, too!

Anyway, I love how the photos turned out.

22/09/2024

More photos from this month's flood in Budapest.

It's pretty, but also pretty dangerous.

21/09/2024

Budapest and the flood.

Scenes from yesterday evening, when the flood levels were the highest. Now it's supposed to calm down again. Thankfully.

Just a random observation. People can't seem to stick to one side of the path here. I keep costed having to avoid people running into me o and having to zigzag everywhere here in Seoul...

Part 6 of Namsan Hill in the snow - a mini vlog

I finally made it to the top of Namsan hill in this part 5 of my hiking vlog. But it's not the final part. There's still more epic views during sunset and at night to show you. Follow to see them. And share with a friend who loves hiking and/or Seoul.

Part 4 of my hike up to N Seoul Tower in the freshly fallen snow Definitely an adventure

Part 3 of my adventurous hike up Namsan Hill on the first day of snow in Seoul. Maybe be smarter than me. But at least you can watch this da l safely on your phone. Follow for the other episodes. #visitkorea #seoultravelguide #seoulwalltrail

Part 2 of my Odyssey to get up Namsan Hill to reach Seoul Tower for sunset. When no buses would go and i had to walk... But if there's one thing, it's that I'm persistent if I want something. So follow my shenanigans and adventures from the safety of your phone. Don't be reckless! #seoulhiking #koreahikes #nseoultower #namsantower🗼

Part 1 of my stubborn winter odyssee of climbing up Namsan hill in the freshly fallen snow to get to Seoul Tower for sunset. Because I want to. The bus refused to go. Most trails were closed. Did I still make it? You'll find out in the next part. Stay tuned. Share with a fellow adventurer who's also stubborn. 😜 #seoulwinter #seoulwalltrail #nseoultower

What a lovely day to wake up to snow in Seoul #seoultravelguide #seoulwinter

Freebies alert! If you are a tourist visiting Seoul in November 2024, you can grab the Super Pass brochure. Then, collect stamps at the shops to get 1 or 3 freebies from the DDP info centre. The booklet also gives you access to lots of coupons, discounts and more freebies. Many are already taken, so hurry to get what's left. Until 30 November 2024. #seoultravelguide #seoulevent #seoultourism #visitseoul #seoulfree

Come with me to a Photobox in Seoul, Korea. There are tons all over town. And they are super popular. You can easily do them alone and have photos of yourself when you feel cute. Or need a little pick me up. There are plenty of props and the lighting is excellent. (If you use the paid Photoboxes, not any free ones for pop up stores) It's usually 5000 to 6000 ₩ for two strops of printed photos. You can select more. Pay with card or in 1000 ₩ notes. Super easy! #seoultravelguide #seoultravel

Just you and the Seoul Tower. Thought I'd give you a little vicarious travel experience without any of my commentary. #visits visitseoul #seoulkorea🇰🇷 #seoulnamsantower #namsantower🗼

From Down Under Around the World

Hello there! Welcome to a world of travel and endless colours, where I get lost in distant countries and bring you tales from the road. A blog dedicated to all the strong women out there in the world and a source of constant inspiration and the living proof that if you are dead set on making a dream come true, you can!

Out of the Dark to Down Under

Back in 2014, I was in a dark spot. Well, that is an understatement. The only way seemed to be down the rabbit hole but since not all journeys in life end in fairy tales I opted for the way a lot of people tried to discourage me from: I went off the grid. To Down Under.

I booked a one way ticket to the other side of the world with only a tiny scrap of confidence left and that was that I somehow would be fine. Travel has always been a second nature to me and miraculously enough I had always been fine. But that would be heavily challenged on my first solo, round-the-world trip.
