"The simple joys of life" As I walked along the river, I came across Korean children, supervised by their parents, swimming and playing in the neighborhood river.
I totally forgot his name. The owner and chef of "The Page Cafe" in Korea.

Cafe Street
After random adventures scouting the surrounding areas of my new residence, Yongin Suji-ju, Gyeonggi, South Korea (the name is ridiculously long, props to the Korean way), I detected a abundance of restaurants and social venues. I instantly found a new love, "Cafe Street". In particular, the ambiance and atmosphere won my heart. After each visit, I'm left refreshed and at peace due to hours spent indulging in great "convo", calm reading, tasty foods, great drinks, ranging from coffee to cocktails, and lavish shopping.
Sunday, I walked along a serene river in search for a American style brunch (though Koreans cook American food far lighter and healthier) on Cafe Street. Accompanied by my new co-worker and American friend, Craig Muse, from down south like myself ,by way of " The Big Peach AKA Hotlanta" ATL, (then he relocated to NY now he's residing in Korea), we impulsively fell into the doors of "The Page" Cafe, a San Francisco inspired cafe. While the owner cooked our brunch, I soaked in the rhythmic tunes of R. Kelly, Usher, John Legend, and a play list of a large variety of American R&B artist. Of course, I "got my dance on", people who truly know me understand I'm a avid dancer and will dance all day to night, then morning, and start the process completely over again lol . Anyhow, the tunes didn't surprise me. Quite often it's naturally common to hear American R&B music in restaurants and shops across Korea, more so songs with Black artist. I'm overly convinced Koreans looooooove African Americans. Black is beautiful, kind, sexy, and all of the above...YEEEES LAWD! There's been several humorous occasions old Korean men have fervently expressed their love for me as they struggled to speak English but were outrageously excited that a Black American girl had invaded their country, as well they have complimented me on my beauty and grace...Now, back to the music, I think it's also a interesting strategy used to help Korean's learn/enhance their English.

Inside of the Korean Boutique, Wonder Woman
Now to the more interesting section, I know you're delighted to find out more regarding my rad dress consumed on Cafe Street at this cool boutique, Wonder Woman. They provide urban-chic Korean clothes that's sure to leave customers dressed fashionably and trendy. The associates should expect to see more of me. I couldn't fail to pair the eccentric dress with comfy patriotic shoes I carried over from the states. It was rather humid, and light drizzles decided to nourish the land. Therefore, I decided to go for this comfy, cool, simple, yet fabulous look. Korean Fashion is seriously on another level as Korea is ranked in the top 5 of the worlds largest and best shopping districts. Look for more post highlighting Korean fashion.
