Lots of pictures to share from today. We had an extremely busy day and it’s only 4pm too!
Just wrapped up with our first day in Manila and we’re totally exhausted. Overall the flights went very smoothly.
I wanted to keep an ongoing list of travel tips I learned from things that I did or wished I did while on the trip. This is my ongoing list, in no particular order
Ok I got side tracked in my last post because I started thinking about the puppies I saw today so let me start over…
It’s 2am right now, I’m sitting on the floor of my uncle’s house trying not to pass out. Today was a super busy day and unfortunately, it rushed past super quickly.
I’m writing from the direct train from hongkik to the airport. I’d say we totally chose the right place to stay in seoul because it was so central to everything. Also, the subway seat I’m sitting on is heated which is pretty awesome.
So this is pretty much the message I got from being here for the past 4 days. I’m probably wrong in thinking that but with SO many places to buy clothes, get face creams and makeup, and advertisements for plastic surgery, I really can’t help but feel like the culture puts a lot of pressure on its youth to look good.
I haven’t really kept up my daily activity posts only because we haven’t really done anything to write home about besides eating Korean bbq, Starcraft, and walking around the shopping districts in meyongdong and dongdemun.
So after much planning and anticipation the day finally came. It was the day we would go to the GOMTV station to watch people play Starcraft competitively at the GOM TV station.
Last night we got into seoul. It kind of annoys me that for a 6pm flight you must be there early therefore we left at 3pm and the entire traveling portion eats up the rest of your day.
