An awesome time with pictures to come

My friend Jules came to visit for 9 days in Korea! 
We had an awesome time! 
unfortunately, i have to take my cam to the camera doctor, so no pics, 
but she has like a million which i will be stealing soon and posting here
We did a lot of walking and exploring in Seoul
also here in the area
we visited the most important temple in Seoul
had our very own monk guide to show us and also had a tea ceremony and made our own paper lotus lanterns, 
that made me feel like i was back in middle school, making a project for mothers day or something like that
She is wanting to be a reporter so she video blogged everything and took a bunch of pics
i was the camera woman :D
We had a blast! 
So much that Jules tried to change her flight to stay an extra  days
but had no luck because of overbooking :(
I can not wait for my bestie to go on another adventure with me!
I hear Spain is in the horizon for next summer :D

Urban feel

So on wednesday, my friends and I
ventured to Seoul taking the public transportation.
We decided NEVER to take the bus again
It takes waaay long
and the bus has this flower 80's like curtains 
that are just too tacky to stare at for an hour and a half
Plus with the train you can be there in 50 minutes sharp
with no worries about traffic
I have officially become the expert on public trans
I guided everyone through the subway
which none of us had taken in Seoul yet
and we never got lost :D
I am so proud 
here is a moment of enlightenment 
when i figured out where we were going

and i am sooo feeling the Urban vibe! 
I want to move there badly!!
After getting to this neighbourhood 
we proceeded to go to this underground galleries
to pick up costumes for belly dance class
and it was a blast!
There were literally dozens of little shops 
it was like a maze!
After that was done we went to eat chinese :D
and as a reward we ended the day with this 
hello coldstone :D

I belong

Today we spent all day in Seoul, 
It was a lot of fun walking down Itaewon
It is a neighbourhood in Seoul
famous for its shopping. 
It is crazy, you can find anything brand name or not
for a lot less. Love it!
Lots of street vendors with knock off wallets and purses and what not
It also is famous for how cosmopolitan it is.
There are a ton of restaurants from all over the world.
Today we ate at an arabic one, from Dubai.
It was awesome! 
I have missed my weekly falafels.
I just had an awesome time
and it made me realize how much i love the city.
I belong there! 
And here is us taking the bus back home. Josh fell asleep
and i could not control myself :D
He is so cute!
I can not wait til next weekend. 
We are gonna go there again! 
Do some shopping hopefully!
I did not buy anything
but Josh did
And i was jealous
because i was not in the mood
but i will next week :D
