So last month, I travelled with the friends I've known for the longest to Seoul, Korea! So we have known each other since we were in secondary school, that is a crazy 13 years!! I had wanted to write 12 years but I have Zonia sitting by my side now, telling me i'm turning 26 in a month's time. Feeling really low now HAHA!
There were so many firsts in this trip!
First time travelling with all my best friends and our partners
First time seeing cherry blossoms for the first time
First time waking up at 4am to catch the sunrise at Seungsan Peak
First time visiting Jeju
First time living at an airbnb loft
and there's so much more!
So I've so many photos from the trip, 1 blog post is not enough! So i'm splitting them up into a few posts! (:
Arrived in Seoul and on our ride to the hotel!! It's too cold!
Breakfast and since the rooms were not ready yet. We decided to spend the rest of the morning doing an activity like the locals do!
It was too cold, I had to hold a cup of matcha latte as we walked around
Jjimjilbang! Watched so much of this in korean drama. So much joy when we had a go ourselves!
selfies with the best friend!
Jjimjilbang is a public bathhouse in Korea, furnished with hot tubs, showers, Korean traditional kiln saunas and massage tables. Jjimjil is derived from the words meaning heating. We felt so warm after a Jjimjilbang session and ready to hit the streets again!
Met up with love's brother, Addison, who was also in Seoul. He brought us to this popular beef soup restaurant around Seoul Station.
Beef soup lunch!
Visited Namsan Tower for a panoramic view!
We bought this lock for 5 USD. Remember to buy your own lock from Daiso if you are heading up :P
Does one of these belong to you? (:

Dinner!// Met up with the other 2 girlfriends and their partners who were on a later flight!!
Dinner at Wangbijin! Pris found this korean bbq place for us and thankfully, we were there early cause the queue formed right after we got in! It's so good and the guys were rating our meals throughout the trip. We were in Korea for 8 days and this was rated Number 1! It was really good.
First time trying Yukhoe, raw beef// Beef tartare! I only had a slice but my other girlfriends loved it!
Myeongdong for night shopping after dinner!
A shot of bustling Myeongdong.
Myeongdong is one of Seoul's main shopping and tourism districts.
In 2011, 2012 and 2013, Myeong-dong was listed as the ninth most expensive shopping street in the world
