July in Instagram

Bit late but I've been on holidayz to France. Had a blast - pics coming up soon.  For now, though, here's July in Korea.  If the photos are anything to go by it seems I did nothing much but eat.

I found a micro brewery in my city that does Pilsner and stone baked pizzas. Nom.

A particularly good week of half days I had in which I explored Seoul's Dongmyo Shrine area and stuffed myself at a buffet.

I know it's cheesy and shit but I love the astro turf stuff they sometimes put outside cafes and restaurants. Fake summer in the city, oy.

It rained a bit.  There be a puddle.

Ahhh, Hongdae. You are still the coolest.

I decided this plastic bag vase is totally ingenious.

Proper waygook meal at Kraze Burger.  I know how to live.

Toy model aeroplanes in my fave Cheongju cafe.

A mural in Cheongju's downtown area.

Super, super, super Shabu Shabu.

Breakfast at Dunkin Donuts.

Birdbox art display in Cheongerrs.

A vintage shop near Dongmyo Shrine.

Rain against my window.

One of the extraordinarily funky establishements in Jukjeon's European-style 'Cafe Street', Yongin.

Post-it notes acting as a window blind.

Fireworks topping off the infamous annual Mud Festival at Boryeong beach.

A night out at the GS25 convenience shop.

Delish gamjyetang (pork spine soup).

All pics by meeeee on instagram @tallullahelle.

May in Instagram

An Americano outdoors. Trying to recreate some European vibez in my hood.

The quaint boat I had to get for my trip to Muuido, a sweet island off the west coast of Korea.

A shot of the audience absorbed in one of the films at a Future Shorts Film Festival some friends of mine put on in Gangnam, Seoul.

The river in Cheongju, the city my boyfriend lives in.

A shot of the river from another angle.

A faux vintage phone at Bar 14 in HBC, an expat village in Seoul.

A popping candy Korean ice cream and a glimpse of my friend Nick.

Suwon, the city I live in, from far away.  I chose a filter which makes it look like the Emerald City from the Wizard of Oz (still one of my favourite films).

A bright green bridge in Chuncheon, North of Seoul.  This is a beautiful area.

I found these birds outside a bike shop on a dusty day.  They didn't seem to have any purpose other than as a shelf for some cardboard boxes that had been laid on top of them.

Groovy sixties style tiles at Namtaeryeong Station, slightly outside of Seoul.  I love how this feels like a futuristic shot from an old film.

Can you see the rainbow effect in the sprinklers?

The cutest coffee cup you'll ever see.

Summer clothes are finally in the shops! I've gone a little crazy with my money lately.

Meat on the BBQ. Korea has an abundance of indoor BBQ restaurants where you cook your own meat. 

Muuido at dusk.

Graffiti in Hongdae, my favourite area of Seoul.

Roses in full bloom. Summer is definitely in full swing.
