Camp Korea, part IV
This is a top pick! ... this is my 4th time here and, once again, as has been the case the previous 3 times, I'm here to participate in Camp Korea. Those familiar with my travels will be well familiar with Camp Korea, the bi-annual, month long English camp for Korean kids. It's ...
Heart and Seoul
This is a top pick! ... off the bat, because I can't even decypher hybrid english/korean signs - it's just all korean. Makes sense really, being Korea and all, but I predict I will get comprehensively lost at least once before I leave this place. He headed off to work and I ...
Trying NOT to pull a Ben Johnson
This is a top pick! ... Korea. I came here, on my way to Japan, because I wanted to see the "famous" DMZ and the border with North Korea. Besides spending an entire day doing that I did have some time to wander around the city and check out a couple markets that ...
Jeju-do - Honeymoon Island.
This is a top pick! ... now have a lovely collection of some 26 photos of ourselves, with JeJu Island backgrounds! JeJu Island is to the South of mainland Korea and, we had read, enjoys a more temperate climate than the rest of Korea. Not while we were there! Firstly our plane ...
Seoul Sex and the City
This is a top pick! ... : What really is the best Plan of Attack? John, an American on the first of what may prove to be numerous tours of South Korea, is a pick-up man. "I'm a bartender," he says, flexing his muscles. "So when we close up shop at 3 or so in the morning, it's ...
Gwanju and Jirisan National Park
This is a top pick! ... to see the country but July/August is not a time to visit here. So, as I plan to go back to Japan one day, I may stop over in Korea again and do some more travelling. But for now, for the time being, I am not going to travel for a while. ...
The Life & Seoul

Busy Back In Seoul
This is a top pick! ... . Although they are at opposite ends of a huge city, seeing them will mean we have achieved all the listed World Heritage sites for Korea. We set of just before 7am with the hotel shuttle to the airport, then a bus to take us diagonally ...
Korean Culture
We really like Seoul, it seems to have everything. Lots of unique tourist attractions, a cheap transport network, and a wide variety of restaurants and bars. The people are so respectful here, they bow their heads when saying Hello and Thank you. It has ...
The Amazing Tripitaka Woodblocks.
This is a top pick! ... woodblocks of the complete Buddhist scriptures for 7 centuries? You'd have to ask the original monks of Haeinsa in Korea because they succeeded where modern technology failed. During the 1970's the President of South Korea ordered the construction ...

Luxurious Love Motel And Lovely Koreans.
This is a top pick! Love Motels are a Korean Phenomenon - and an excellent one at that. For the equivalent of $A45 a night we are ensconced in luxury only known in 5 star plus hotels. The catch is Love Motels are hard to find and, well, there might be a little ...

Hangin' with Kim Jong Ill
