Hello, Korea!

It was hella cold. Okay, thank Sue Ramirez for the weather update and all that but Seoul in winter is cold as hell. Not that I would know but...you get the point. I actually packed a lot of warm clothes because I’m prepared like that. Haha! My first day in Seoul was wonderful! I got to explore the city like I did with my friend Pring before. It was as if I never left. 

I first went to the hotel and rested there for a bit. Unpacked my stuff, settled, and may have napped a little bit. I actually booked the same hotel as before too!

After resting, I decided this is it. Time to explore! And I did. Oh me and my high heels girl! But whatever, you know! I planned to go to Bukchon Village first but on my way there, dropped by The National Folk Museum as well. It was awesome! 

It was not as pretty as it was on Spring though. No flowers. But it gives it character. The emptiness.

They were having a little protest going on there. Basically, they’re trying to eliminate tourists going near their houses. I mean, I would probably do that too. I mean, silent tourists I don’t have a problem with but oh my gosh, the others I will happily kick in the butt you know what I mean?

Hot Pancake. Yas. Sooo oily.

After that, went to a small place and ate Bibimbap because Korea. It was awesome! And a fun first day I should say. Annyeong~

Then! This! So we were 4 people splitting the bill, yeah? Each of us gave the exact amount needed for the meal but when the counter lady counted it, it’s missing 10,000 won. Not cool!! Again, we should have probably counted before reaching the counter but in our defense, we were supposed to pay bu credit card but since they don’t accept cards, we had to pull out cash all of a sudden. Oh my goodness. See, not cool, Seoul. Anyways, the cool part I’m about to share! I plan to do a day by day post so since I was there 5 days, expect 5 post about it. Yay!

Like, I've seen this village in movies, series, and all that stuff so I really want to see it myself.

Life, for reals. Everything. I want to try a little bit of everything and go back for more. Like, eating at some fancy restaurant wouldn't probably give me that Seoul vibes as much as eating along the streets of Seoul, right?
