When people conjure up thoughts of Korea, many people assume that Korea is all about its Kpop music and soju drinking lifestyle. However, the one reason why I enjoy living in Korea is because there is something for everyone. If you enjoy outdoor activities to nightlife partying, Korea has something for you. But one thing you must know is that Korea is a very trendy place. Top trends in 2015 included honey butter chips, multi-colored hair, and flavored soju. So for in 2016 one of the top new trends is the up and coming art scene and one the best displays of this at the D Museum. If you are interested in seeing funky and modern art exhibits, then you must visit this place while teaching in Korea.

I've been blogging a lot on restaurants lately, but that's seriously what I've been doing with my free time while teaching English in South Korea. Since it's been rainy on and off in Korea, the best way to spend time is indoors. So instead of laying around in bed all day (also not a bad idea), I decided to venture out to different restaurants in Korea.
