Suwon | Chuseok
My last destination of my Chuseok trip (read parts 1 and 2 here!), was an hour on the subway south of Seoul, to the town of Suwon. Suwon is the largest city in Gyeonggi-do, the province surrounding Seoul,…
Seoul | Chuseok
After I explored to the east of Seoul, in the Chuncheon and Gapyeong area, I returned to the city for the next two nights of my trip. There’s so much to see and do in a city the…
Chuncheon & Gapyeong | Chuseok
So even though I’ve only been in Korea for a couple of weeks, I’ve already managed to do quite a lot of adventuring! I got lucky, because there was a public holiday last week (my vacation days suck,…
