This recent trip to Korea was actually planned way back in September 2014. We booked our flights in December 2014. Haha. So to be honest, it was pure coincidence that we got to catch some of the Cherry Blossoms and other flowers that started to bloom. I’d like to say that there are Cherry Blossom trees pretty much all over the place but the parks definitely … Continue reading 50 Shades of Cherry Blossoms in South Korea 2015

Many of you would have heard of cat cafés or dog cafés but did you know that there is a sheep café in Seoul? So like in a cat/dog café you can play and pat cats and dogs so yeah, in a sheep café, you can play and pat lamb/sheep (depending on when you go). I’m serious. The sheep café is really called “Thanks Nature … Continue reading Seoul Adventure: Thanks Nature Café, Better Known as the Sheep Café

From Haeundae Beach, it was only 2 subway stops to Centum City, Line 2 on the Busan subway system. Centum City houses the world largest department store that is Shinsaegae. To be honest, I have no idea how big the entire place is because when we came out from the subway station, it was connected to the building so it was only when we left … Continue reading Busan Trail: Centum City (센텀시티)

We only planned for a 3D2N trip in Busan and it was alright, if we stayed for 4D3N, we would have a bit more time to stroll around more places in Busan. Busan is alright, though I must say that I prefer Jeju Island better. Anyway, the first place we headed to in Busan was the Jagalchi Market (자갈치시장). It’s the largest seafood port in Korea and … Continue reading Busan Trail: Jagalchi Market (자갈치시장)
Some of you might know what I was in a relatively minor car accident when I was on holidays in Seoul/Jeju Island about 3 weeks ago. I thought it was a minor accident because we’re just shaken up by the bump and no blood was spilled by anyone. And it turns out that I had completely trivialised the entire thing so I’m writing this up so you guys … Continue reading What I Should Have Done After a Car Accident While Overseas
I’ve been trying to visit the DMZ (Demilitarised Zone) and Panmunjom, Joint Security Area (JSA) for a few times now and on my previous trips to Seoul, my reservations got cancelled because of one reason or another due to some military/North Korean activity. I took the full day tour where I visited Imjingak, the 3rd Tunnel and the JSA/Panmunjom. It was 130,000 won per person. I … Continue reading Seoul Adventure: DMZ, 3rd Tunnel, Panmunjom and Joint Security Area
