I love this place. I can see my mom’s great taste in every corner. She decorated the house with one of a kind furnitures and decorative objects she’s collected over the years while they lived in Italy and U.S. Also I love that she kept so many of my drawings. 😉

On our last day in Korea we spent the whole day with my brother’s family so kids can spend more time together. I will miss my family here~ So grateful for our time together and loved seeing the kids having such a great time with their cousins.

Chloe came out with me and my SIL for another round of night shopping and she begged for an iced coffee to help her stay up. I didn’t think she needed any help staying up because she seemed to have a full of energy and excitement to be out and about past her bedtime. I knew she just thought it was cool to drink coffee and was always so curious about it. So I decided to treat her and got her a decaf latte. She thought it was the coolest thing at first but she mostly just carried it around, not drinking it much . Turns out she’s not that crazy about the taste after all. My baby’s so cute.

Kids favorite place in Korea.

So. Much. Fun.

They had the whole playground to themselves.

This is probably the first time all of his grandkids are together on his birthday. Happy birthday to the best dad!!

It’s video games that bond the boys together…

We visited my SIL’s work place then she took us night shopping at Dongdaemun Market!

Happy to be out at night! I think we got here around 8pm~

She bought Chloe’s a Kakao friend(?). So sweet…

It’s true…I came to Korea to eat. Besides, it’s too hot to do anything else.

When in Korea… ???

I’ve been wanting to take the kids to Jjimjilbang for a fun cultural experience. They enjoyed sweating in heated salt room, pinewood, Jade room and many other heated rooms and running into an ice room in between. 

Healthy dinner after a sweaty afternoon. 🙂
