Welcome to Better Than Ordinary

 Hello and welcome to Better Than Ordinary.

This blog is about finding beauty in everyday life.

I live in Korea and enjoy exploring local cafes, camping in nature, knitting, and discovering places that many travelers never get to see.

Through this blog, I want to share ordinary moments that feel a little more meaningful.

You will find:

  • Hidden places in Korea
  • Camping tips and experiences
  • Knitting projects and ideas
  • Local cafes and food
  • Simple reflections from daily life

Life doesn't have to be extraordinary to be memorable.

Sometimes, being better than ordinary is enough.

Thank you for visiting, and I hope you enjoy the journey.

– Taeri

It is about expanding my possibilities and preparing for my future. I once lived in Australia. I did not return to Korea because I hated Australia. In fact, I still hope to live there again somed...

One of the Hardest Days of My Life

 Today is one of the hardest days I have experienced in a long time. Yesterday, I was asked to leave my job. Overnight, I became unemployed, and I still don't know how to process it. I feel lost, uncertain, and deeply discouraged. The reason given for my dismissal was that I slept in the break room for about 30 minutes. The night before, my child had a high fever. I stayed awake most of the night taking care of them and got very little sleep. The next day at work, exhausted from the lack of rest, I closed my eyes for a short time, hoping to regain enough energy to continue working. Instead, I lost my job. What makes this even harder to understand is that I had only been with the company for 23 days. I was hired for a marketing position, but I never even had the chance to fully begin the work I was brought in to do. I had not caused any major problems or made serious mistakes. Because of that, I cannot help but wonder if there was another reason behind the decision—something I was n...
