Dream homes

After living in a one room apartment with someone else for nine months, I've gotten a little obsessed with browsing for dream houses all over the internet. The website Desire to Inspire has a truly amazing selection of beautiful houses that I have spent literally hours drooling over. These are some of my favourites from that website and a couple of others.

Sunday funday

As this weekend was the last in a month of no drinking, I thought a good wholesome hike would be the most appropriate way to celebrate my last sober sunday funday. We hiked for three hours from Beomeosa Temple to the cable car in Oncheongang, along the Geumjeong Fortress Wall. I discovered that my camera lens was badly scratched at the beginning of the hike, so unfortunately I didn't get many good shots but here's a selection from mine and my friend Mike's camera.

It's perhaps not a surprise that the Japanese managed to get over this!

Very eco-chic

I'm in love with these fabric wraps from Chewing The Cud. They are beautiful pieces of fabric that can be re-used time and again by their different owners so that your wrapping can be beautiful and environmentally friendly.

The wrapping technique is called Furoshiki Wrapping and originates in Japan. You can find tutorials on how to wrap anything from books and bottles to making gift bags and baskets here from furoshiki.com
