Our first full day in Seoul
Our first day in Seoul didn’t go completely to plan, for reasons outside of our control, but we had a great time and I really love this city. An unexpected change of plans We started the day at a coffee shop near the hotel before taking a slow walk towards […]
My first time in South Korea
We’ve made it to Seoul. This is my first time in South Korea, which is somewhere that I’ve wanted to visit for so long and I’m really happy to be here. It has been a long couple of days travelling, though, including a really disorganised experience passing through Shanghai Airport […]
