lotte young plaza.... very nice .. but expensive

entering myeongdong!

streets full of shops

and many many more!! my favourite place in the world!!!

markets in myeongdong

and more...

on sunday.. they close the streets around my place so kids and their parents can play... when i walk out they're everywhere riding their bikes and rollerblaidng.. i think this is really cool!

this weekend i spent it in ansan and seoul... on friday i had to go to school... i don't know why because i basically did nothing all day.. i just sat at my desk from 830-1230 and chatted until it was time to go home... a few of the students saw and came up to say hi cos they knew i was the new foreign teacher.. they're very shy though.. mayb because they're not confident with their english.

so after school i headed to ansan... it took me 2 hours to get there... it was like hell and was seriously the longest train ride of my life. i eventually got there and we spent the night in jungang... this place was so maddd.. at night it was like a city of its own even though it was located like over an hour away from seoul... we basically just ate, sang, drank and shopped!

the next day we headed off to seoul... first stop was namdaemun market... namdeamun was ok... im sure its a lot better but its so big and so crowded i didnt know where to start looking... after spending about an hour ish there we headed off to myeongdong...

myeongdong is soooooo awesomeee... its my favourite place in the whole world!!! the shopping there is crazy.. there are streets after streets of shops... i spent about 4-5 hours there and i still didnt finish going through everything!! i bought too much stuff though so after while decided to go home and rest.. in the end im living here now.. not for a holiday.. i can come back anytime i want.. lol i keep forgetting that.

so far my impression of korea is pretty good.. im finding my way around places and settling in ok... my place finally feels like a home now because i started unpacking and buying stuff for my house... 2moro will be my first official week at school.. i won't be teaching though.. just observing... we'll see how that goes!

안녕~
