R&R Bagels - Central, Hong Kong 

It is quite easy to find “Okay”- cafes in Hong Kong, but you should pay particular attention to find “OMG this is fantastic!”- places. 

Last Sunday afternoon, I finished my 90 minutes of (freaking) HOT yoga class at central district in here, HK, and decided to find somewhere to eat nearby before I die.

And I found one cozy Bagels cafe in a dodgy alley called Li Yuen Street West, which made me feel a bit like traveling somewhere in Philippines.

As soon as you open the big door (*sliding, FYI), you would be fascinated by good smells of bagel & coffee in warm and comfy vibes.

The bagel was super perfect - little chewy and crispy outside, flufy and soft inside. I tried poppy seeds bagel with Lox spread, which was composed of cream cheese, smoked salmon, fine chopped onions with a bit of spices and herbs, it was tasty. And I also had soup of the day - Pumpkin and carrots soup with goji berries, and it perfectly matched with the bagel.

Next time, I would definitely go back to get some bagels for my daily breakfast, and also I strongly recommend you to try healthy and interesting menus as well. Nice staffs with warm greetings will make you feel more happy.

멋스럽게 산다는 것

인간적으로 '멋' 드러지게 산다는 것은 어떻게 보면 쉬울 수 있지만 사실은 많은 어려움이 따르는 일이다. 어떻게 행동하는 것이 멋지고 좋은 방법이라는 것을 우리는 대부분 머릿속으로는 인지하고 있지만, 그것을 그대로 실천하는 데에는 굉장한 노력이 따른다. 더더욱이 나이가 들어가면 들어갈 수록 어려워지는 것이 그것이다. 어떻게 하면 쿨하고 멋지게, 아름다운 사람 냄새를 풍기며 살아갈 수 (나이들어갈 수)있을까. 생각해 보면 작은 차이 하나 하나들이 큰 다름을 가져오는 것이다.

I had two cups of coffee today. A bit unusual as the other days, but felt okay cuz it’s TGIF today.(that means i might be out over night;-) There’s no wonder that i feel like capps when rainy day comes. Yellowish light, standing wine bottles on the shelves and the paintings make the atmosphere of this place warmer and cozy. How was your day? greetings from Melbourne, one jazzy rainy afternoon. xoxo

It’s been almost 4 months since I had come here, to Melbourne. And I’d like to introduce several things to you that I’m loving in this city.

1. Coffee shops I love coffee and so enjoy going around to find a nice shop. I wouldn’t say that Melbourne is famous city for coffee, cuz obviously everyone already knows about it. Somewhere smells good, that’s the one you can meet a cup of tasty coffee. That’s how i find a nice one and it always works.

2. Creative/handcrafty fashion sense.

3. Stupidly cute big chess in front of the Victoria state library.

What's gonna be the next? What are you planning for me?

It's been a dark and cloudy day in Seoul. I hate winter raining. It should be snow not the rain! Now I'm having gloomy Tuesday. what about yours?

Since i have decided to quit my job, i feel much more comfortable. And the most mysterious thing is that in these days, i've been working so hard. I mean harder than any other days. I'm living like today is my last day in this company. then here i am. I'm the best hard worker than any other. things are like this always. When we decide something, everything is changed because our mind set towards a life comes totally different.

Plants on the rubbish bin. it was a crime. cutting healthy and innocent plants and throwing it away. a woman who cut these plants seemed a bit stuck into the duty in charge(must be paid). She was florist but nobody could feel the love towards the plants from her. she just cut cut cut to make them look nicer without guilt. I saw a tragedy today.

The sleeve.🐚 a silhouette i always want so bad. I strongly believe that these kind of details can make a woman more beautiful. moreover when the fluffy sleeves are moving softly, it makes me feel better. this is like a magic that only women can feel.

And we had fun in the ST Kilda beach. Micheal made Vietnamese spring rolls and we made mushroom salad. We brought jambon, cheese and melon with bisquettes as well. Since the weather was perfect so it makes picnic even better. 😎

Melbourne was actually one of the most colorful city i've ever seen. You can easily find full of graffitis on the wall, neon and lots of signages on the street in various colors.

Having fun in Melbourne! Love this warm breezy weather. Much more beautiful and peaceful city than i expected.
