My study abroad program in Seoul officially started, and this vlog is basically my little orientation era—busy, artsy, and very “wait… I actually live here right now?” I take you along for some shopping and a café stop, then we do one of those iconic Seoul things that feels unreal the first time: heading up to N Seoul Tower (Namsan Tower) to see the city from above. It’s one of those cozy-but-a-lot-of-walking days where you’re tired, but also kind of buzzing because everything is new. After that, I share an Olive Young haul (because of course), and then we get into the actual orientation days—meeting up, figuring things out, and exploring more of the city together. I also spend time in Myeongdong for shopping and street market snacks, and then we go full culture mode with Gyeongbokgung Palace. I end the vlog at the Seoul Museum of History, which felt like the perfect grounding moment in the middle of all the excitement—like a reminder that there’s so much context and story underneath the cute travel diary moments.
