Lighter

Lighter

I sure showed them!

I can use a lighter… it was just a hard one and I have delicate fingers. Hugh couldn’t find his jacket, so I had been telling him all day that I had burnt it.

Racism in Korea

Serious topic! As with any serious topic, there are many aspects and we can’t cover all of them. We talk about where we feel Korea is at right now in regards to racism, our experiences and some of the things people should know when talking about racism in Korea. Also we talk about how it’s good to also look at racism in our own countries and what needs to be improved as well.

Talking about Tea

Talking about Tea

Yes we have conversations about tea. Yeah Aussie girls! (With British heritage). Cuppa just means “a cup of tea”. I drink so many cups of tea.

Also, speaking about the word “tea”, when Mr Gwon first stayed with my parents, he got confused because my mum also calls dinner “tea”. And then to be more confusing, my nanna called lunch “dinner” and dinner is “tea”. And then we also drink lots of tea!

Update and Vlogs

So I took a few days off because I wasn’t well, but feeling better now. Because Hugh was in Seoul we didn’t have time to edit a Wednesday video but we have TWO vlogs today.

Michael Bolton

Cheese music! I kinda want that on a t-shirt…

Michael Bolton was recently in Korea and there was a TV show and Korean singers did his songs……. I don’t know, I didn’t really watch it haha. But it made Mr Gwon go and watch a lot of Michael Bolton stuff. As much as I laugh at him liking a lot of cheesy music, especially 80’s music, I think it’s great that he just unashamedly likes whatever he wants to like. I notice that in Korean society as well. Compared to Australian culture, where there is a lot of shaming about tastes in music, Koreans seem to be a lot freer to watch and like whatever they want, no matter what their gender.
