Life in the UK through a family lens

Sharing authentic UK life stories and travel tips from a Korean expat family’s perspective.

Get to know us

Hello and welcome!
We’re a Korean family living in the heart of England – me, my British husband, our 10-year-old daughter, our 8-year-old son, and our adventurous cat Mango, who traveled all the way from India with us. Here on our blog, we share not just our everyday life in the UK, but also practical insights into parenting, school experiences, and family life – plus travel stories and tips from our adventures across the UK and beyond.

Our goal? To give you a real, engaging, and useful glimpse into life as an expat family in the UK. Whether you’re curious about British culture, planning your next family trip, or just looking for honest stories and handy advice, you’ll find it all here. Before diving into our posts, we wanted to properly introduce ourselves – so welcome to our little corner of the world!
