Rolling on the river

A couple of years ago the city council of Seoul decided to uncover this ancient stream that used to run through the city. This stream (called Cheong-Gye-Cheon) me and Nina decided was worth the effort of getting out of bed a Sunday. 



Hanging out with Haechi, Seouls official mascot, and quite a handsome fellow if I may say so


All Universities in Korea have their own college jacket, this is our Universities one. Like gangs in Grease Korean students move around the city, and if you happen to belong to a top University you wear yours with a smug smile on your face.

Fruit and vegetables are insanely expensive. You might think this is just an ordinary box of mandarins, but in fact is me and Nina blowing or student budgets.
Saturday in Sunday is couples day in Korea. I can't imagine any country were it you see more couples walking around, sharing an ice cream and holding hands in the sun. Must suck being single, but on the other hand it might be the fear of not getting married that creates this phenomena.






After we had enough of sweet couples and water we decided to walk a bit further to Myeong-dong were we could be a bit less cultural and a bit more wasteful with our money

But before doing that we had to rest our legs, I decided to do this in combination with a sweet blueberry latte.
