Another city that has been on our list for a while…
And this is where our expectations of South Korea began to unravel in the most beautiful way possible. We were anticipating a strict society like in Japan, where the group prevails over the individual in most situations.
What we found was a city that, among its many imperfections, had a soul. It really surprised me how real and alive the city felt – Seoul felt like a place built by people for people.
@maique Yeah! I’m not a city person, but I’d love to spend a bunch more time in Seoul. Still very nice, but also feels very lived in. And so much to discover. Would love to see your pictures and hear your stories of Seoul.
@maique I might have mentioned this before on the blog but I recommend the film Return to Seoul. Can rent on Apple TV.
@maique I was just there last month. I spent time in Seoul and Busan. I use to joke that Japan is very Japanese but Korea is even more Korean. 😜 I enjoyed the visit. If you love chicken and beer Seoul is the place to be. 🍺 🐓 🇰🇷
