Let's GO, Seoul●Busan! 首爾●釜山趴趴走!

안녕하세요 여러분! \^0^/

Annyeonghaseyo, everyone!

Before we depart for this trip,
I told Cong Min that I'm going to write travel journals for this trip.

At first, I'm so determined to take pictures everywhere I go.
But at last, I ended up too lazy to do so =,=
(I'm lacking behind to be a professional)
Salute to those travel bloggers out there!!!

At the meantime, I am quite worried 'cause
my writing speed is way too slow
yet we had a long journey schedule.

I wonder how long does this gonna take me......

Anyhow I really hope this gonna be fun for reading and informative to you readers.

That will be my motivation to finish this mission :)

September 9, 2016 (Friday)

We were at Sinchon and had our lunch there.

Since we are energized and recharged,
it's time to go for a walk!

Not knowing the distance from our location to the destination,
we decide to take subway instead of walking.
(although it is just 1 station away).

Where we gonna go?

Ehwa Womans University (이화여자대학교) is one of the well-known universities in South Korea.
FYI it is located in Seodaemun-gu, Seoul.

Coming out from the subway Station Idae,
it requires walking for about 10~15 mins to reach the campus.

Since this area is largely populated with young female students.
many restaurants and outdoors shopping areas can be found nearby.
They are mostly budget-friendly shopping outlets and trendy clothing boutiques.

It is also said that they have live music performance organised here from time to time.
Obviously it is to accommodate the demands of the university students.
(looks like a great place to start a business!)

Also, there are many cosmetic shops can be found in this area.
But don't you worry, seriously you can find these road shops everywhere in Korea.

Since it is just our first day in Seoul,
we kept on cautious ourselves not to overspend.


Now lemme ask you...

Have you heard of Isaac Toast before? :)
Well I don't, actually.

Coincidentally, we spotted an outlet down the road.

As Cong Min's highly recommend that we should try it, and we did.
And I would regret if we didn't.

Seriously this is the most delicious fresh toast I ever tried before!!!
Probably because I didn't expect much from it,
surprisingly I am so delight of it's taste and freshness.

Issac Toast & Coffee 이삭토스트

**how to get to this location : take metro/subway to Idae (241), Exit 2**

Address : 서울특별시 서대문구 대현동 56-88 (서대문구 이화여대 7길 15)

Freshly from the stove~

Please guys and girls, do give it a try,
and I guarantee you will fall for it :9

Menu

Just in case you're curious,
we had Ham Special, and it is goooood :9





And I can't help kept thinking how tasty it is...
(poker face... HAHAHA XD)


Soon as you noticed a grand wall on your left, you can tell you have reached your destination.
In fact, you won't missed Ehwa Womans University's entrance as you walked down the street.
It is such a grand entrance whereby you might mistaken it as a royal castle.

Iconic flower wall

It was passed 5PM as we reached there.
A big crowd is found in front of the entrance.
Both students, visitors and cars.

Since we don't have much time before sunset,
we quickly went to the church building which is located 5 mins away from the entrance.

Don't worry that security guard will keep you out from the campus.
In fact, they are opened for visitors to enter the campus for certain areas.
Provided it is not semester break or national holidays.


Such a lovely environment.
So much love for this campus.

I don't mind to get another degree and spend another 3 years here~ XP
(you know I'm just saying, right?)






The sunsets quicker than we moved.
We didn't even get to explore 5% of the campus @@
What a shame.
(Definitely would pay another visit here on my next trip...)

Quickly we head back to subway station and went 7 stations upwards
to Station Dongdaemun History and Culture Park.

Food truck selling all kinds of coffee

It is located next to Dongdaemun Street Market.
There will be street performance during night time.
And there are food trucks stationed on Friday nights.

Coincidentally, there was an event organized by Vans on the night we went.
The theme was "Vans Off The Wall".

They invited street bands and singers to perform that night.
I'm not sure who the band was, but it was AWESOME&ROCK!





I shoot my first Facebook live video here.
Too bad I couldn't get the live video link paste here,
so do check out my Facebook (here)
(if you're interested to get a hint of that night).
