at seoul now.

[hwaa]

not really cold yet. noon around 21-22 degrees, night i can say around 16degs +/- and still can walk around in berms and polo t.

my airbnb host provided me with an olleh wifi egg to use, capped at 1gb per day. so far so good.. connection quite ok.

food here generally quite on the high side even those street food, think minus shopping... amount spent on food also quite alot already.

many shops and street food vendors can speak chinese... thanks to the huge influx of china tourist.

thats all for now, first trip here.

quite mild as ginseng is hidden inside the chicken one. as long u dont dig into the chicken then the ginseng soup is not as strong.

the initial soup taste is quite nice even when the ginseng is hidden inside.

but the serving is quite big if u order other dishes, if 2 persons can eat until damn full and cant finish.. i saw quite a few pple dabao the unfinished food.

this one im nt too sure eh cos im spending all my 8 days 7 nights at seoul...

 

[hwaa]

maybe just some advice after i spent 3 days here.

the hotel u all choose is really quite important, cos the subway here about 90% all staircase and all interchanging lines is quite a distance apart.

even if u stay at hotel A, if 3 lines all can reach hotel A.. u still gotta see which line is the one that can exit to your hotel.

alot of climbing stairs and walking here...

The pavement there, say myeong dong.. is it convenient to roll the luggage ard? Hopefully its not like HK, very squeezy, and the floor is those like secondary school parade square tiles.

Thanks man!
One thing I'm a little annoyed is korea doesn't really use google maps, only got their naver which have to use hangul. Makes finding out how the surrounding look like a little troublesome ha ha

 

[hwaa]

haha. i didnt expect seoul to be so tiring one. i usually go out in the morning den return back only ard 12-1am, by the time i wanna return.. the legs like wanna break already.

most koreans dont wear slippers one and its v hard to find shops selling slippers here.

 

[Lexmerc]

You mean ur wearing slippers now??? I thought now quite cold already!

 

[harky]

How is the girl look like?
