Seoul / Korea

Wow! That's great .. Share pud Asa ka ga stay ug unsa ang gipang adtoan..

It'd be a much long share, so I'll just make it a bit simple hehehe

We stayed in "The Hill" guest house in myeong-dong cause its really accessible to everything and a lot of good reasons!
There are lots of good places to stay in, but depende ra ninyo kung unsa inyo gusto and inyo budget.

> Went to church (if you're catholic, make sure na RC church inyo adtu-an hahaha)

> Toured couple of..... p a l a c e s

> Went to historical places and Old/Traditional villages

> Strolled to every interesting places around the city (lagyo2 sad mig mga gilakwan oy, seriously! basta lingaw, di namo kabantay)

> Shopped from well known districts to locals' shopping areas
we also got lost because of this by the way, we went to an old korean district (where electronic shops are located) looking for a store that sells samsung stuff (wala juy foreigner and everything /everyone was korean hahaha) ended up wasting couple of hours sa among trip. but it was fun! getting lost and all! atleast naka experience mi hahaha.

> Went to Yongpyong Ski resort and learned how to snowboard (Usually runs from November to March) made the best of my trip

> Explored and biked Nami Island (really enjoyed it)

> Hiked Parks, stream, etc...

> Enjoyed the view at Seoul Tower (good for couples)

> Got satisfied with every meal we ate (Random food everywhere, sweet to spicy, from restaurants to food courts to street foods and tents "pojangmachas") mahal uban nilang food by the way if imo e convert, pero just don't mind the price too much, sayang inyo oras and di nya mo ma enjoy.

> Drinking Makkoli (Rice wine) late at night sa nearby Ministop convenience store (most nights after laag hahaha, we're kinda alcoholic) na amigo nagud namo ang owner sa store hahaha and to think its freakin cold at night! ma amaze jud ang mga tao na maka kita namo. nalipay rasad ang owner kay na alive iyang shop, nana gud daghan ni sunod namo, na gamit na tawn balik iyang tables and shairs sa gawas.
> Also went drinking with other backpackers/foreigners at The Flair Bar in myeongdong, and played E-Darts you should try it!
> For Clubbing: Octagon, Club Answer, M2, Volume

> We didn't go to amusement parks because we're not really that interested with rides and kids stuffs hehe
> Also the DMZ is what they say "a must go" but its kinda far and so we thought mas dugay ang travel time kesa ang stay ngadto so we decided to do shopping whole day instead hahaha (concluded rather worth it!) cause also we met a couple (kababayan) and we asked if they tried DMZ and based on the expression when they answered "okay lang din" na gets na namo hahaha

So.... Daghan pajud nindot e-explore sa South korea, for me kulang ra to ang 1 week, I'd love to go back... and stay longer like for a couple of months or even a year. hehehe.

I really have more things to say but I think sakto nani. There are things na wala nako na mention. mas better siguro if you try to finding it out or experiencing it yourself. para exciting and fun. hehe but if you have other important questions or you want more tips, just ask or reply a quote.

Note:
pasensya if wala nako na mention ang tanan places, ako nalang gi general/broad kay most of those places are known naman sa internet especially mga blogs. I don't wanna bore you with a very long read. but we'll be making a blog about the trip so that ma specify sad ang tanan places and things we did. but I have no idea when namo ma finish, cause we're kinda busy pa.
Again, everything is on the internet, dali rajud nimo ma search..

Geonbae!

I really love Seoul! I went there for about 10 days and stayed at my father's place in Gangnam. Yes, free accommodation lol.
I just merely toured at the palaces and went shopping sa Myeongdong. Went to Dongdaemun and Namdaemun too pero mas daghan ko napalit sa Myeongdong. Also went to Everland with family while the rest, ako ra jud isa.

Would really love to come back to Seoul or go to Jeju.

Kinahanglan ba jud buy kag ticket first before ka kuhag visa?

[re_con]

One of my dreams gyud ning maka-adto ug korea. Puhon, kung matinood tong duha nakong dream. For sure, going to korea will be easy pud.

[pirehro]

Kinahanglan ba jud buy kag ticket first before ka kuhag visa?

I think its optional, and it could be a good supporting document of your vacation and exit from korea
