Sold my soul to Seoul

Alrighty guys, last week of the trip commencing! It's a bit sad cuz there won't be anymore trip blog for a while.. that and the fact that I'll be back to "normal" life again lol.. well, I'll be in Halifax for a week, but after that, who knows.. it's ok though, cuz for your entertainment (haha), I'll return to doing my English/Korean blog at hoodie09.blogspot.com and back to making YouTube videos! :)

This past week in Korea has gone by quickly but it also feels like we've been here for quite some time. During our stay here so far, we've managed to meet up with quite a lot of people, which is nice cuz after being with the same people for 2.5 months, it's a nice change of pace to have some new company and new faces in our pictures =D AND even though sightseeing is pretty awesome, for me, the most memorable thing is meeting new people and building these memories together *tear*

So about this monsoon season.. turns out we were just at the start of it so there weren't many rainy days, but for our last week here, it's pretty much going to rain every day. It's not too bad cuz there are still things to do, but you know.. sightseeing and whatever else you do is more pleasant in sunshine.

Anyway, today was sort of a slow "rest" day for us. We hung out with a couple of people, but headed back to our hostel by about 4:30pm, which is considered a really short day for us because we're usually out on our feet for about 12 hours a day. I even got to take a 3-hour nap today! Crazy eh!? Haha

So as usual, I'll leave you with some pictures. We saw the palaces this week and did some shopping, to sum it up.

Peace out!
Mmm healthy snacks on a rainy day ;)
