Now, Dosim is a nice area and actually has some quite beautiful views. Take a look here (please note that these pictures aren’t necessarily the most beautiful ones possible!): Dosim…

Insa-dong, Samcheong-dong and lots-of-fun

Greetings friends! So as you know, this blog is going to be part-reflection and part-present tense daily report weblog journal thing (official title). Because I have such a backlog of images, videos and  high-def memories, methinks the next few posts will be catching up on the start of my time here, before segueing into the…
