Hello! I’m Shin and a Los Angeles native currently exploring Austin and the Lone Star state. Welcome to my travel and lifestyle blog.
I started this blog as a creative space to share with the world fun things I have enjoyed, such as discovering places in Austin, so that you may decide to experience them too. I know you are busy and with a limited attention span like myself, so I’ll try to keep things on short side. I love to adventure but am also a little on the lazy or non-committal side (Sagittarius sun sign perhaps?) so I’m not going to give you ALL the choices you could make in a given city or place, just ones that I have enjoyed. Basically, tl;dr in a tried and tested way.
A little bit about me… Like many people towards the end the pandemic, I picked up and moved to Austin, TX with my partner because he got a new job here. Also like many of you, I got a covid companion in 2020, my sassy calico mix named Jupiter. She is my first cat and I am very much in love.
I am a multi-passionate person with obsessions over traveling, Disney, adventuring, planning, nail art, and eating delicious food. As a first gen, I have lived in the US since I was two, growing up in a suburb of Los Angeles. I have lived in Shanghai and now Austin, but my favorite city I have lived in is still Venice, CA. While I am not blogging, exploring or eating (okay maybe while I am eating) I work full-time for a skincare brand. Previously I have spent time in the footwear and apparel industries.
I hope you enjoy my blog and hanging out with me. If you have any questions or want to chat, I’d love to hear from you! You can do this on the contact page.
