1392-100 Jung-dong, Haeundae-Gu Busan, Korea Rep., 82-51-9331000
... were at the bus station where we met a whole carnival of people – all English teachers – that were heading to Busan for the same reason – one of the EPIK district coordinators is also a DJ and was taking his skills to a club in Busan. We knew some of them, and some were new friends, but it all added up to a great bus trip down (about 4 hours of beautiful coast). Busan itself was also really beautiful – a lot like San Francisco, there’s ...
Busan, Busan, Korea Rep. maryberry... 5,000won. They took us down and put our mat under an umbrella. The umbrellas were lined up in a very orderly way, as the beach often has over a million people. When we tried to move the blanket back a row and out of the shade of the umbrella they men came running over to us and started making a huge fuss. They told us we couldn't tan in that section. We had specifically said blanket but no umbrella, so didn't know why they ...
Busan, Korea Rep. heatherann... in the st*tes h*s cost me up to $3.75. I guess every body re*lizes the intrinsic v*lue of the stuff *nd keeps it che*p for the m*sses. Wh*tever the c*se, I'm not compl*ining. We hop on the bus *nd I *lmost split my forehe*d open on the bottom right corner of the 50" fl*t screen sitting, centered, *nd right *bove the driver/st*irs *re*. It stre*ms s*tellite TV while we ride. The bus h*s over sized se*ts simil*r to wide, first cl*ss, *ircr*ft se*ts ...
Busan, Korea Rep. ct_sigchi... back to my attention. Regardless of how ****** the situation is, my family can laugh at it somehow. I love that. Keeps people honest.<br><br><br><br>I've learned people in my life are a little bit afraid of/for me. I know they see me as the "traveler," or "brave," or something...and they always have an expression of fear that I will somehow make them participate with me... What I want them to know that--what I do--it's just what I have to do. I ...
Sajik-tong, Busan, Korea Rep. missyjoymel... and historical artifacts in the collection of the Gyeongju National Museum is so large that most of the objects cannot be displayed and are thus stored out of the view of the general public. The Gyeongju National Museum has maintained an archaeological research department for decades and staff there have conducted numerous field surveys and excavations in North Gyeongsang Province. After the visit to the museum, we visited the royal tomb ...
Gyeongju, Korea Rep. willa_andrew... t feel like explaining.... I was pretty freaked out, but I'm whole. My jean skirt bore the brunt of the attack...thank goodness...), AND it started raining that day--so I didn't have an umbrella or proper clothing to walk home from school in... It wasn't your "traditional" Thanksgiving, but I enjoyed good company and pretty good food. What more can I ask for so far away from home?<br><br> <br><br> So now, it's almost ...
Sajik-tong, Busan, Korea Rep. missyjoymel... I'd translate the whole thing for Jeremy until she got to the punchline, which I almost never understood. Everyone on the tour was a Korean-American immigrant who'd been living in States, like my mom. Some of them had brought their kids, who spoke limited English, like myself. There were a few non-Korean significant others, like Jeremy. The 30 of us got on this big, fancy bus with a flat screen TV in the front ...
Busan, Korea Rep. connieyc... these vedors set up tents with tables and chairs, and you can eat a meal in them. We just had pork bbq again. (I'm still learning the names for everything.) I'm lovin' the bbq here. It's what I eat mostly... Your meat is cooked over coals on your own table. Usually, you wrap the meat in a variety of lettuces, and put onions, garlic, herbs, sauces, etc in the wrap, and eat! Depending on the restaurant ...
Namp'o-dong, Busan, Korea Rep. missyjoymel... cool and definitely not cooked.' Yep, that was it. · Countess Who? As if putting us up for the night, feeding us, showing us around Busan and swinging us an upgrade on the ferry wasn't enough, Nick presented me with a 'Countess Mara of New York' (I've never heard of them either) gift set of accessories that any discerning business professional would be proud to be seen utilising - an umbrella, pen ...
Busan, Korea Rep. byrnedm... walls. Once again we were staying in a type of Hanok, however this one was more like a youth hostel with an air conditioned communal common room & kitchen and an airy courtyard with pub style benches to relax on. That afternoon, after feasting on Ronald's finest we bought a few essentials from the supermarket and retreated back to the Hanok to sit in the shade and read magazines. Wonderful. We couldn't leave Gyeongju without at least trying to see some of the ...
