I got back last night from my little adventure around the southern half of the Han (Korean) peninsula. I had a good time and saw lots of interesting things – big and small – which I’ll add onto this blog in the upcoming week. I spent the first three days in the Seoul region crashing at my friend’s place, then moved onto the pleasant city of Chuncheon in Gangwon-do (province), then headed down south to Daegu, where I met my friend from Suncheon for the weekend, and finally made the trek back to the ‘Dirty South’ – Jeollanam-do and my humble abode in Suncheon. The highlights were finally getting up to the DMZ and Panmunjeom, heading over to Chuncheon and Gangwon-do for the first time, and looking all over Daegu. It was a good little vacation, a nice break and it’ll be a nice little filler of work for three weeks until I have two weeks back in Australia for Christmas and my brother’s wedding. I’m enjoying my extra vacation time from this year’s job compared with my last four year’s of minimal vacation time.
