Life update (with pictures)
Can anyone believe that we’re already halfway through 2023? As always, I like to use the beginning of July to reflect on my goals and progress, since July marks the […]
Goals for 2023
With 2023 being just hours away, I spent some time reviewing my goals for 2022. Like always I have followed through with some, completely abandoned others, and made a half-assed […]
New year, new goals
Happy New Year everyone. It’s officially 2022 – or as Stephen Colbert called it – the third straight year of 2020. Anyway, as always I like to create a list […]
July
And just like that it’s July. We’re already halfway through 2021. It seems like forever and a blink of an eye at the same time. Just like the Koreans divide […]
Rays of light in the dark
I’m writing this on the darkest day of the year. In Denmark that means less than 6.5 hours of daylight, and this year, December has been unusually dark and gloomy. […]
My happy place
I try to make a habit of practicing gratitude and give thanks for all the wonderful things I have going on in my life. I find this daily practice particularly […]
Strengthening my (Korean) core
It’s been a while now since lockdown ended here and I’m starting to feel like things are back to somewhat normal although traveling still seems to be off-limits. Although I […]

Habits
Up to 40% of our daily activities are made up of habits. Especially how we start our day before being completely awake is very much dictated by habits. Do we […]
Self-care Sundays
I’m back in Seoul and busy as ever. I’m teaching two classes and have to deal with more than 200 students over the summer. It’s great to feel busy and […]
Let it out and let it be
My parents tell me that when I was little, I would start to cry whenever there was a hole in my sock, somehow expecting it to hurt in the same […]
Keeping busy
There’s an adage that says “a busy mind is a happy mind”. We should therefore all strive to keep busy at all times, as it would prevent us from worry […]
Good days, bad days
We all have them, and if we think about it, it’s rare that a day is 100% one or the other. Good days can have something bad and bad days […]
I’ll be fine
It’s no secret that I’m on an emotional rollercoaster these days and that the joy of being free and independent and the frustration of feeling useless are battling for my […]
Sofie to Korea
