Yayy in Seoul now! Last leg of the trip.. spent my birthday wandering around the Bukchon Hanok Village and Myeongdong Market. I love the bustle of the city, the hoards of people everywhere.. the city is vibrant and alive and I'm lovin it!
I love being greeted when I enter and leave a store or a restaurant.. and the general politeness of people. Of course if there's a sale in a small clothing store, you better watch out cuz dem girls have their eyes only on the clothes and if you're in the way, they'll push their way past to get to them lol. That's probably true of any country though haha
Weather-wise, it's quite nice. Definitely not as hot and humid as Malaysia so it's bearable and enjoyable. As for navigating around, it's pretty easy cuz there's English spellings of places, and the metro system makes announcements in 4 different languages (Korean, English, Mandarin, Japanese). If you're lost, ask the younger crowd as they're more likely to know English (though it may be limited, they're quite willing to help!).
Hmm what else.. everyone here is crazy thin and are dressed really well. Korean fashion is no joke!
Lots to tell but too lazy.. almost forgot to update the blog actually haha. Anywho, pictures!
