Hello all! It's been about a year since my last post... which I apologise for! Sometimes life just catches up with us, and we sometimes lose interest in or time for things that we love. I've had a post in draft for a good six months, but I never got around to posting it. Maybe it's because I spend the entire day at work staring at a computer screen, and have felt pretty uninspired. But, I'm back and hoping to continue documenting my journey in Korea and my finds! And maybe getting back to my passions, if I can!
My friend Natalie introduced me to this adorable cafe in Jinju called "Grand Jatte". It used to have another name, I guess, but they changed it. It's a quaint cafe nestled on a corner on a backroad, with tons of plants and flower and an amazing atmosphere. Honestly, it is exactly the kind of cafe that I really enjoy going to!
The cafe has two floors. There wasn't a ton of seating on the first floor, but there is a nice bench area where you could put together two tables if you wanted. We were a group of seven people, so she wound up pushing two tables together upstairs, though there was an extra long table with stools for larger groups (it was occupied at the time we went there). It was really cozy and the atmosphere was great for socialising with friends, or even for those studying there!
Along with many choices of drinks, there were sooooo many delicious looking desserts and treats to choose from! Unfortunately, we didn't try any but definitely a thought for next time!
The upstairs part of the cafe was pretty much what stole the show for me! There are giant trees and big windows to let in a lot of natural light. If you know me by now... you know I'm a total sucker for these kinds of "natural" incorporations in interior design. This one is definitely something special.
I had a cafe mocha (obsessed!) there. Despite the warm weather, I was feeling a hot drink. The mugs were adorable and the coffee was really good! Definitely would recommend this place!
Like I said earlier, the cafe used to be called by another name. I guess "Cafe Maru". Anyway, this board really resonates with me; my life since coming to Korea is basically: No cafe, no life. I frequent cafes so often that it's something that really speaks to me.
Anyway, just one of the things I've been up to, obviously: cafe hopping! I'll hopefully get another post up soon to update on my skin care routine and some other fun stuff!
