I got some cute anime merchandise from my friend in LA and I wanted to share her pieces!
The pieces I chose was "067 Black Hoodie" referencing Squid games. I was also given her "enemies to lover puff print hoodie" and ""Sailor Moon White T-Shirt" both super cute :) ps all sizes in L.

She makes other illustrative merchandise and is a one person brand so please be patient and support her <3 processing would take about 1-2 wk prior to shipping and since products are made-to-order so no refunds! Checkout her shop Instagram:@ascendant.co

I started using Beacons over a year ago and I've just stuck with using their page because I really think they're the best! I've tried other ones but their user interface is the most friendly and most appealing as well :)

Recently they've worked on helping creators make Media Kits and Early Pay/Invoices for payments between company and creator.

I discovered Karat a while back but recently decided to apply. I originally was interested in their bookkeeping and tax prep but then found out they had a credit card which I decided to sign up first for too! There's many nice perks but my favorite is that you can choose your 3 top categories to get cashback/points! Customizable for artists, influencers and just anyone in the creative field:)

Their customer service is also amazing too (have a phone number you can reach for help anytime)

I recently booked a flight from South Korea to Taiwan and it's crazy how I've only discovered JinAir until now! They're a budget airline and run 6 domestic flights and 26 internationally (even to Hawaii!)

But for my experience, the service and staff are super friendly and their food (!). That reminds me I actually booked their airline when I went to Japan and the bulgogi sandwich was amazing :P

The main highlight is that their regular prices are great but their ONLINE PROMO prices are even crazier! Just checked for sometime in May and they still have crazy discounts ($45 +$40 tax to Taiwan!) Definitely worth checking dates for your next trip :)

NVGTN is a relatively new sports brand that has gained a significant following in recent years. I personally didn't know about them until my friend told me that they're like dupes for those $100+ high-end leggings and have to agree!

They also have an insane selection of designs I don't think I've seen any other brand do like them... Theres bright colors and patterns but also your basic shades that we all love :)

Check out my video to see a try-on and what I got!

I'm currently living in South Korea but I don't have a bank account here so sometimes my foreign friends give me cash if they owe me money. However, not everyone carries cash here since money transfer (domestically) is very convenient until my friend recently shared Wise!

I've never used Wise before (US bank transfers like Zelle or Venmo/Paypal). My friend told me they recently rebranded/updated their look to a green style and that she uses this service between her Korean and US friends or other countries because sometimes Paypal charges fees etc~

I would say if you're skeptical send like half or whatever amount you're comfortable with first if you don't want to send a big bulk!

I've used Agoda since 2019 now and have never had any issues. Some people on the internet say that their customer service may not be the best but honestly Agoda is already top in its category for travel platforms.

And so! As a budget traveler myself, I love platforms like this that give so many bundled discounts from flights to accommodation and more. I think that Agoda stands out from others because they have cool services like "Price freeze" which is where you first pay a small amount to hold the price of the hotel and then later you pay the rest (and if the price goes up they'll cover it* and vice versa if it decreases!)

Theres also other things like AgodaVIP and Agoda cash (you get back from bookings) which you can use for future trips as credit! Overall truly great platform, definitely worth checking out if you haven't yet. They have lots of affordable and nice spots to stay for your trip :)

I picked out a bunch of nice basic pieces from Lewkin and they're truly a lot better than I thought they were gonna be like. Totally worth checking them out :)

Watch my video for a full review and try on!

INTRO:
First off, I bought from Airspace TW in person stores back when I was in Taiwan 3 years ago. I'm aware this is their global website page but I can't find the tw one so your experience for global may be a bit different…idk…

PRODUCTS: i got a big order from airspace and if I could I would give this review an extra.5 star because I think their products aren't terrible.
There are padding products for my sisters with smaller girls
There's heat tech material
They have these cool skorts (I'm not a skirts gal)
The designs they have are not bad, some pretty elegant pieces
*however, one top I got had this gold chain on it and i had it rub against my neck/shoulder area and at the end of the day my next was somewhat red/irritated. Not the best material for sure.

CUSTOMER SERVICE/SHIPPING. I was in Taiwan at the time when I got all of these items so they shipped it fast but i was not lucky with customer service and i'm honestly quite frustrated with them. I've tried to contact someone but they've ghosted me (yes leave me on read) and because of that I can't leave a good review and I don't want to buy from them again :)

I just did a huge spring shopping spree and I can't wait to try everything on! I am in Korea so they shipped quite quickly but I've heard my friends in the states get theirs with no problem.

Codibook seems like a website platform with a bunch of cool clothes from actual shopping areas in Seoul like Hongdae and Dongdaemun. There's some small shops that I've seen duplicate products so make sure you find the best priced items!

ALSO, in my photo you can see that theres an easy access customer service 1:1 (they also have multilingual customer support in English, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean!)

– In my title I write better than YesStyle cuz honestly they have waY better fashion clothes because it LEGIT comes from Korea and not HongKong and DOESNT smell like chlorine

I'm honestly quite surprised to see so many other people have bad reviews on hostelworld, it's quite unfortunate :( I'm a solo traveler on a budget so I love to stay at hostels. I've booked on their website about 5+ times now in both Korea and Japan and I've thankfully had no issues with it.

They have so many options to choose from around the whole country and their prices are usually the lowest too.

Another cool thing they have is the option to pay a bit beforehand and pay the rest up front. It's a nice option to have :) -- I've attached an example from my receipt

This is one of my favorite sustainable brand purchases. I have to say they don't have a lot of options (pieces) to choose from but their color selection is amazing! It makes sense though because they're not fast fashion:)

OKAY first thing. I travel budget and always look for the cheapest way to get around places and I recently came across Peach airlines.

It was my first time seeing them when I was booking a trip in Japan (Tokyo to Osaka) The flight itself was honestly a 5/10. Also one of the weirdest flights I've ever been on. Crazy turbulence and I felt the strangest after waking up from a nap (idk...) ANYWAY

Besides the bad flight experience, I actually had two encounters with customer service both at the airport and online. Airport service 1000/100 super friendly and exceeded my expectations. 100/10 for online, took a minute to reach someone and get the story right but they also helped me with lots of info and made sure i was good.
I'm definitely going to book again with them for my next trip:)

This is my second time boarding a cute plane like this so I'm not surprised these exist but I've never seen a Pokemon one!

I flew from GMP (Korea Gimpo) --> TSA (Taiwan SongShan) and luckily came across their first launch day!
Watch these vids if you wanna see more cuteness:

The ticket purchasing process wasn't too complicated, not the easiest process though. Nice they have english. If you're flying from ICN Incheon Airport (South Korea's International main airport), there's SO many deals its crazy. (checkout photos)

Definitely will be keeping an eye out for more deals and hoping to come across this cute place again :P

I've been budget traveling for the past year and recently just found out about Tiger Air (a budget friendly airline that flys around Asia) "We fly from Taiwan to all around Japan, Korea, Philipines and Thailand 30 routes with 23 different destinations, let's travel all around Asia with Tigerair."

Not sure if it was just the plane I was on (or all of them) but it's quite big? (than I expected) 3 rows on both sides. Mainly because this isn't an airplane on the main terminals (I had to take a shuttle at both airports). The service was really nice for the budget price and the plane was packed! Oh and also, these plane aren't flying all the time so they do have limited dates and times.

Watch these two tiktoks of mine if you'd like to see more details/vlog of my travels!

Looking forward to flying with them again :)

Been eyeing this brand for a while now and finally decided to buy a few of their pieces. Super happy with my purchase and I definitly think I will be buying from them again! Check out my video review to see the three pieces I bought for try on and my thoughts~

I've bought from Stylevana a couple times now. They are a beauty (and kind of fashion website) that sells beauty products from Korea and Japan.
I've seen people say that they aren't super reliable and I've fortunately have had no issues with shipping both in state and abroad but I would keep that in mind. They do have a variety of products I haven't been able to buy anywhere else and their products are generally cheaper. I would Still try it out though especially if the items are a lot cheaper or if you can't find it anywhere else.
I would give this review a 4 or 3.5 if I could but on behalf of some of my friends and subscribers who have had issues I would need to rate it a 3.

You can see my YouTube video for review on the products I've gotten from them!

Wanted to switch up my wardrobe for the fall so I got some Korean fashion pieces from ordicle New York! I would say they are a bit on the pricer side however the quality is amazing and some pieces are really worth your buck!

Bought this cap from Joah Brown and I'm really happy with my purchase! Watch my video review to see a try on and more about my customer experience interaction~~

I've tried digestion pills before and they really work but I recently got these "bloat" pills from Arrae and I've been liking them! I take them more during the day after meals if I feel that I am bloating often need digestion help.

Another thing I love if that it's nut free, vegan, organic (and other things like filler/gluten/cruelty free too)

-- Will be back with an updated review once I have finished the bottle :)
