SEOKJIN & GRACE: The Egg Sandwich

A gruelling schedule had been put in place for BTS now they were finally complete as an eight-member band. Yoongi had come back three months ago, and a meeting had taken place two weeks after he had left his social services job to discuss what they wanted to do to show ARMY they were back.

Obviously, an album had been in motion for a while, but a travel show had also been planned, similar to Bon Voyage but similar to Run!Jin and Jimin & Jungkook’s show. That was a week away from being filmed, and it had been all gungho to get the album recorded, to get photoshoots done, interviews scheduled, and then the music videos. 

One day off in two weeks. 

Which is why Grace had woken up late, blinking blearily at the clock to show that she was late getting up by her standards. Min-Ji was in his favourite place, draped over Grace’s feet, and Jin was nowhere to be seen. 

His side of the bed felt cool but not cold, so that meant he had been awake for a while. And if she knew him well enough, he would have gone to get the bread from the bakery down the road to start breakfast off right. 

A glance at her phone to see if she had missed anything through the night (she hadn’t, though the group chat had been going hard over the album title), Grace stretched and let out a loud yawn. She had forgotten how gruelling comebacks were, and since this was the most anticipated comeback of them all, everything was hurting. All she wanted to do was do nothing, maybe have a shower, eat tasty food, and maybe watch that K-Drama Taehyung had recommended. 

That was going to be her plan. 

She just had to find Jin.

Before she could decide on whether she wanted a shower or a bath, the bedroom door opened. 

Carrying a large mug that said ‘Mum’ (thank you, Jungkook) and a plate with a sandwich made out of freshly baked white bread, a fried egg with bacon, and plenty of cheese. 

“Ah, I came at the right time then,” Jin grinned as he placed the plate down and handed her the mug of tea in exchange for a quick kiss. “I’ll be right back.” He disappeared out of the room again and returned in three minutes, back in his pyjamas with his mug of coffee and his own egg sandwich. 

“So, what are we watching?” he asked, settling back underneath the covers as Grace turned on the TV to flick through the channels to get back to the show they were currently watching.

headcanon - What would the ideal vacation look like with each member? 🌸 Feeling inspired by your spring break theme ☺️

hello, my darling Mallory! 🌷

i love that we are continuing on with a theme! i am definitely taking some of my observations from soop and bon voyage, but i will admit that i have not seen every season of things, and people change over time anyway, so it's all fun and games. and i am adding a reader character to the mix, for fun. and yes, i know i already mentioned joon and museums, but...come on, we all follow his instagram lmao.

an ideal vacation for the members:

Namjoon - a trip with Namjoon is a series of one-way tickets, with a stack of brochures that he has picked up along the way for various trails, monuments, galleries, and museums. you have to pack for every kind of weather, wearing only the most comfortable shoes, because the two of you will be on your feet a lot, more likely to sleep in hostels than hotels. Namjoon is adorably frantic, going from one place to the next while sprinting through topics of conversation, and you keep always make sure he never loses anything important along the way (like his passport!!!) Namjoon talks to every little creature along the way, and you smile to yourself as he sends yet another cat photo to his hyung with the message, "Look! It's you! 😻" and at the end of your long treks through nature and along marble and cement floors, you get dressed up for whatever gastropub and wine bar he finds to end the night in.

Seokjin - this man is finding a hotel central to the nearest theme park, and he is also checking to see what is in theaters. sure, you could watch a movie back home, but you could also watch it anywhere, and anyway, Seokjin is excited to see what kinds of snacks the theater might have. he looks up the finest of dining, and the most interesting food carts, making friends with every manager or chef he can manage to talk to. in the evening, Seokjin is eager to return to the hotel and relax, giving you exactly fifteen minutes of peace before his laptop gaming session turns into incoherent shouting.

Yoongi - Yoongi is a wildcard, because you are never sure if he is going to want to get up early to explore nature with his camera before the morning fog has fully settled, or sleep in until almost noon and find somewhere quaint to have breakfast or lunch. you can always expect a history and architecture lesson, however, and you always come prepared to stand and sit around a lot while Yoongi talks to locals and looks things up, snapping photos and getting lost in his thoughts. he will make reservations to fancy restaurants, stop at dinky holes-in-the-wall, and if a game lines up for a sport he enjoys, the two of you will have the best seats. sometimes you will hotel hop to see different parts of an area, and other times, you will rent a camper van and hit the road for long stretches before settling somewhere in the middle of seemingly nowhere. there are always quiet moments, but they are never dull.

Hoseok - in the first few days of the trip, you always sleep later than Hoseok to give him time to do his hair and choose from one of the many, many outfits that he brought with him; he takes time getting ready, and he is not ashamed. once you finally do head out, he likes to sightsee close to the hotel, tasting local food and taking in scenery. he might want to go to a museum or on a hike, but he is the most interested in walking through the streets and people-watching while finding somewhere to grab a cup of coffee and sit outside before finally going to the high-end shopping centers. Hoseok is just as active at night, finding a concert to attend or somewhere to dance. as the trip wears on and he becomes worn out, hotel robes, room service, and cuddling up with you becomes his favorite things.

Jimin - you absolutely never know what to expect from Jimin, which is what makes traveling with him so exciting. although he is happy to try local food, nothing brightens his day more than finding Korean spots, and he will probably return there a few times during your stay, ordering different things each time. Jimin will do sightseeing, go to museums, and attend events, but he does not stay in one place for too long, always taking you by the hand and dragging you off to your next destination. pack several swimsuits when going on vacation with Jimin, and several outfits for various kinds of nightlife scenes.

Taehyung - luxury, luxury, luxury. Taehyung likes the penthouse suites, the jazz clubs, renting out that hideously expensive golfing room in Vegas. he also likes to jump into the ocean wearing the clothing he intended on wearing all day, caring very little about the chaos in the moment, just for the sake of being impulsive. you truly never know where Taehyung is going to drag you off to, but you always pack way more clothing than you would ordinarily need, and expect several very lavish shopping sprees. everyone you meet gravitates to Taehyung and becomes his friend, and he winds up getting you into clubs and events that have very short guest lists.

Jungkook - although Jungkook has many interests, he is the type to follow your lead. whatever you want to do see, wherever you want to go, Jungkook is making reservations and looking up logistics to make it happen. he is very eager to get your insights and learn from the locals, and will suggest plenty of sightseeing and restaurants, but only once he is a little more familiar with his surroundings and has an idea of what the area has to offer. he is not a pushover, though; if he finds an event he wants to go to, he will speak his mind, and if there is something he's not into, he will let you know. but he is definitely along for the ride, for the most part, excited to see where you will lead him.

I'm surprised by your answer to that anon about underrated taekook moments. I thought bon voyage 4 had the least amount of taekook moments and interactions out of all the seasons.

Btw, I watch all bts content through taekook lenses 😂 I'm constantly on the look put for taekook moments.

Well I do like to surprise people now and then.

The Taekook content in BV4 not overt or front and centre like in BV3 or BV1 in fact on first view you'd be forgiven that there not much there. But actually, there's more than you think, it's just subtler than the other BVs.

I constantly think about this BV a lot more than the others because BH tries to hide TK more obviously than previously though, if you look you can find them. Whenever they can they are near each other, JK buying Tae's coat, JK going in the caravan to check on Tae, JK siting beside an ill Tae, eating breakfast together off camera, but still being caught, Tae waking everyone up but only cuddling JK, the headband thing and the the fact that JK wears one glove pretty much throughout to hide his tattoos, but Tae does too in support.

In retrospect, I think, because it aired in December 2019/January 2020, BH did this because they wanted to keep up the pretext of Taekook being distant prior to the that In The Soop moment.

Unfortunately many of the good BV4 analysis videos no longer exist because the channels have gone or were deleted but here are some with some insights...

Sailing Smoothly: Navigating the World of Maritime Catering Services 

In the vast expanse of the ocean, where ships become floating communities, one essential aspect stands out: maritime catering services. This integral component ensures that sailors and passengers alike are well-fed and satisfied throughout their journey across the seas.

Setting Sail with Quality Cuisine         

Maritime catering services extend far beyond mere sustenance; they encompass a blend of culinary expertise, logistical finesse, and a deep understanding of the unique challenges of life at sea. Imagine the complexities involved in preparing meals for hundreds, if not thousands, of individuals, all while navigating unpredictable waters and adhering to stringent safety regulations. 

Culinary Creativity Meets High Seas Challenges

From breakfast buffets to midnight snacks, maritime catering services cater to diverse tastes and dietary requirements. Talented chefs work tirelessly in compact galleys to craft menus that not only tantalize the taste buds but also withstand the rigors of maritime life. Ingredients must be carefully selected and stored to maintain freshness, while meal times are orchestrated with precision to accommodate varying schedules and sea conditions.

Safety First, Flavor Always 

In the maritime world, safety is paramount. Catering services must adhere to strict hygiene standards and safety protocols to safeguard the well-being of everyone on board. This includes meticulous food handling procedures, rigorous sanitation practices, and thorough training for catering staff. Despite the challenges, these measures ensure that every meal served is not only delicious but also safe for consumption.

A Seamless Blend of Tradition and Innovation

While maritime catering services uphold time-honored traditions of seafaring cuisine, they also embrace innovation to meet the evolving needs of modern voyagers. Whether it's incorporating sustainable practices, accommodating dietary preferences, or experimenting with fusion flavors, the world of maritime catering is a dynamic one, constantly evolving to enhance the onboard dining experience.

Smooth Sailing Ahead

In the vast ocean of maritime operations, catering services serve as a beacon of hospitality and comfort. Through culinary mastery, logistical prowess, and unwavering dedication, these services ensure that every journey is not only safe and efficient but also a gastronomic delight for all who embark upon it. So, as ships set sail into the horizon, passengers and crew alike can rest assured that their culinary needs are in capable hands, allowing them to focus on the adventures that lie ahead. Bon voyage!

Préparer son voyage

Pour voyager il faut bien partir d'un point A et arriver à un point B. Que cela soit pour le trajet du départ ou du retour, il faut prendre le temps de s'organiser, comparer les prix et les moyens de transport, choisir la meilleure période et enfin réserver les billets (si possible le maximum an avance ou pendant les promos afin d'alléger son budget pour les transports).

Je fais généralement de mon mieux pour organiser le plus gros de mes voyages au minimum trois mois en avance (oui, oui). Cela peut paraitre extrême mais cela évite du stress et de la frustration car on s'y prend au dernier moment les prix sont hauts, les horaires plus forcément arrangeants et si cela s'applique aux transports ce sera aussi le cas pour le reste de la planification.

C'est une habitude à prendre mais je vous conseille donc de garder dans un coin de votre tête une liste de destinations (si faisable par ordre de préférence ou de priorité) afin d'effectuer une veille régulière sur les tarifs pour vous y rendre (oui partir en voyage demande un peu de travail).

Et pour ce qui est de comparer les moyens de transport (prix, rapidité, facilité, pollution) et leurs éventuels enchainements, voici les sites que j'utilise le plus souvent (je vous conseille d'ailleurs l'utilisation d'un vpn pour consulter les tarifs afin d'éviter qu'ils augmentent) :

Définir quels transports utiliser

Rome2Rio pour comparer les temps et coûts entre les différents transports existants jusqu'à votre destination

Viamichelin pour connaître les coûts en péage et essence jusqu'à votre destination

Réserver les trajets à effectuer

Omio pour les trajets en bus ou en train en Europe

Trainline pour les trajets en train en Europe

Comparabus pour les trajets en bus en Europe

Kayak pour les trajets en avion

Pensez aussi à consulter les transports en commun existants sur le site de votre destination (bus, métro, tramway) car vous pourriez en avoir besoin sur place. Connaître la carte des transports et leurs tarifs vous permettra aussi d'orienter votre recherche de logement (est-il plus économique de payer plus cher le logement et de ne pas utiliser les transports ou le contraire ?).

Préparer ses logements

Une fois les trajets réservés il faut au plus vite s'attaquer à la recherche et la réservation du ou des logement(s) à prévoir lors de votre voyage.

Les prix augmentant là aussi très vite je vous conseille les planifier le plus tôt possible.

Il existe, en cas de doute, des options de modification ou d'annulation (parfois payantes, attention!) qui vous permettront de revenir sur votre choix si vous changez d'avis (ou si vous trouvez mieux).

Je privilégie généralement les logements entiers, confortables et au calme pour les voyages longs afin de profiter pleinement de mon espace voire de préparer certains repas à domicile et m'économiser des restaurants en extérieur. Mais pour des séjours courts il peut être plus intéressants d'orienter ses recherches vers des logements en hyper centre moins équipés qui vous permettront de visiter votre destination sans perdre de temps dans les transports (à réfléchir selon vos envies, la destination choisie et votre voyage).

Pour ma part j'utilise essentiellement trois sites de comparateur et recensement de logements de vacances car ils couvrent une grande partie des logements proposés dans le monde. Cependant, il m'arrive également de consulter des sites propres au pays de ma destination (notamment pour les bed and breakfast qui sont souvent des super bons plans).

Airbnb où des particuliers proposent à la location des logements entiers ou chambres privées ou partagées

Booking où des hôtels, des B&B, des appartements de vacances, des gites et des particuliers proposent tous types de location avec souvent des promotions

B&B où des professionnels et particuliers proposent des chambres d'hôtes ou des appartements à la location

Préparer ses visites

Avant de partir (ou pendant votre trajet) je vous suggère de mettre le temps à profit et de commencer à prévoir votre circuit de visites ainsi que de réserver vos éventuelles activités ou sorties aux musées. Dans certaines villes très touristes (telles que Venise ou Amsterdam), certains lieux peuvent ne plus être réservables déjà plusieurs jours avant votre venue, il vaut donc mieux anticiper.

Pour repérer les lieux emblématiques et les endroits secrets à découvrir vous pouvez consulter des blogs de voyage, les sites dédiés au tourisme de la ville voire du pays que vous allez visiter, faire des recherches par hashtags ou mots clés sur les réseaux sociaux, acheter un guide de voyage en librairie et, une fois arriver, vous rendre à l'office de tourisme. Il n'est évidemment pas exclu de partir en voyage sans la moindre préparation de vivre à fonds l'aventure de la découverte. a vous de décider quelle formule vous convient le mieux !

Pour ma part j'aime varier les sources d'informations et je m'adapte aux ressources propres à chaque destination. Néanmoins voici quelques ressources vers lesquelles je me tourne régulièrement :

Des blogs de voyage :

hellotravelers

amoureux du monde

l'oiseau rose

découvrir ensemble

hellolaroux

(pour + de recos c'est par ici!)

Des collections de guides :

un grand week-end

le routard

lonely planet

simplissime

Vous avez désormais toutes les clés en main afin d'organiser votre prochain voyage !

Cocooned between Mexico and Guatemala lies Belize with all its natural splendor and unspoiled resources. Together with the remnants of numerous Maya temples and a fascinating mosaic of saltwater flats, mangroves and and Cayes -- Belize is unmistakably the most fascinating tourist destination for even the most discerning of travelers.Belize -- A Glimpse!Archaeologically grand Maya temples, longest Barrier reef in the hemisphere, the most winding and extensive cave system, a paradise for divers and anglers - and one small country at the gateway of Caribbean Sea - Belize has captured the imagination of the hospitality industry, real estate developers and tourists alike.It's not only the geography and history of Belize that has transformed the tourism map of this Caribbean country, but a magical blend of its wonderful people, cultures and cuisines has also elevated the status of Belize as one of the most exotic tourist and vacation home destinations in the world. Some of the other glittering stars on the tourism map of Belize which are worth a mention are... One of the few marine landmarks in the world that is visible from the outer space =- The Great Blue Hole. A magical landscape that is teeming with pristine islands, snorkel and diving spots. Dense forests with many ancient Maya sites. Exotic species of flora and fauna exclusively found in the tropical rainforests of the country. Belizean cuisine -- where in one tiny country you can experience tastes from all around the world. Foot-tapping Caribbean music to the best arts and crafts replicas from Central America. Bird-watching to kayaking to cave-tubing expeditions -- all within range. Dazzling coral reefs opening gates to scuba divers. For most, a trip to Belize is a life time memory and for others an annual pilgrimage -- to their favorite caves and diving spots.A bit about the Weather Warm and humid all year round - that sums up the weather of Belize. The maximum temperature difference in a day is usually 10°C. Rainy season runs from June to November while the drier months are from December to May.Tourists usually prefer the drier months -- December to May and expectantly the hotel rates are higher during these months.Cuisines to Casinos...Although no travel guide has vouched for the culinary uniqueness of Belize, the diversity in the Belizean cuisines is worth a visit -- Creole to continental breakfast, all under one roof. Homemade food served in very modest local restaurants can be surprisingly tasty. In contrast to other tourist destinations, meals can suit every pocket -- ranging from US$ 3 to US$ 25. Ambergis Caye boasts of some of the highest quality restaurants while local restaurants are known for delicious Creole dishes rich in meat and seafood.Belize is not really visited for its casinos but a couple of casinos are worth a mention for those of you who love to socialize around dice. The biggest casino is 'The Princess Hotel Casino' which is located in Belize City. The only other casino in Belize is at the hotel 'The Palace'.Bon Voyage!A trip to Belize is often the most anticipated travel plans for most tourists -- because of its aura of quaintness and exotic natural surroundings. Belize is unlike any other Caribbean getaway -- because of its proximity to North, South and other Central American countries and not to forget the many expatriates who have made Belize their home. Because of the ease of immigration to Belize and the simplified rules for purchasing properties in Belize, the immigrant population has seen a steady climb in recent years. Source by Dustin Hart
