Going places

What’s the best way to meet new people while traveling?

I really don’t have the answer to this one. Back when I was visiting Busan, I had met a really nice couple that wanted to talk to me and take pictures. My problem is that I tried talking back and they couldn’t understand,

I guess I wouldn’t be the best person to ask this question considering I just love to stay at home all day, read books, and scroll on social media.

Grit

What’s the most underrated life skill?

The most underrated life skill to have? GRIT. A lot of people don’t think that this word or skill is even important but I can clearly say that it is.

In order to survive when it comes to tough situations, you would have to power through it or else it will swallow you and lead you down a spiraling path that you may never get out of. When life is deemed unfair in your eyes, how to you survive? Do you cry? Complain? Feel like giving up?

I have too.

But then I realized that me being emotional won’t get me anywhere…that I will have to take life by the horns and do what I can to survive.

That is what I call grit.

My philosophy

What’s a personal mantra or philosophy you live by?

My philosophy is simple: Live everyday as best you can. Don’t give up no matter how hard it gets. Believe in yourself because no one will ever believe in you if you don’t. Keep pushing even when it’s tough.

That’s it. That’s all.

Exploring the City

What’s the best way to explore a new city?

View all responses

I  did this when it came to me moving from the U.S. to South Korea. Whenever I have holidays off, I continue to explore the cities that were close to me. Just this year alone, the two places that I was able to fully explore so far was Seoul and Busan. 

  1. Know what you want to explore ahead of time before you walk into any city. One example that I kept seeing is the Drone Show they have in Busan. In order for you to become a part of that event, You would have to look up the time and place beforehand considering you will probably only see it at night. 
  2. What are some of the interests you like? When I was exploring Seoul, I knew that I wanted to explore some activities that I knew I would enjoy such as going to a zoo to see the animals. The animals were going to end up being the next great inspiration for my future books. 
  3. Make sure that you take plenty of photos and video (If it is allowed). Just in case you want to relive the experience for a future time. I have done so when it comes to one of my videos called ‘My Weekend in Seoul’ and will be posting another video called ‘My Vacation in Busan’ very soon. 

That’s it. That’s all.
