Because we are planning for our next trip, we decided to visit some famous attractions here in Korea. We traveled for 4 nights and 5 days. We visited the Korean East Coast. I finally visited Kangwondo Province, the place that I wanted to visit in Korea. It's too far from where I live. It took us around nine hours although we took a rest many times, in fairness, It's really far. First we went to Sokcho, went to the beach and had dinner. Then we went down to Kangnung, Jongdongjin, Donghae, Samchok, Pohang and went home. We were supposed to go down until Pusan but it was too tiring. Besides, it was too cold because it's winter here in Korea and the temperature is minus degree celcius. I didn't wanna get off the car but I had no choice because I wanted to see the beauty of the East Sea.
I had a great time inspite of the freezing weather. I traveled to many countries and my mother in law said that Korea has also amazing places and wonderful sites. I think so! I'll show you the wonderful attractions the next time that I come back here.

I'm looking forward to it
We've just come back from our vacation. We traveled around Asia and we visited five countries in less than two months. We were tired because we moved from one place to another but it was awesome. My hubby said that we may go again next month to go on a trip to another country. This time, I wanna travel in Turkey to see all of the historic places like the Ottoman Empire. It's my dream to visit the famous Anatolian peninsula where Turkey lies on.
Going on a holiday is not fun and interesting if you don't stay in a nice holiday accommodation. It's the most important thing to consider when you go on a trip. Choose the comfortable and cheap accommodation if you want a perfect vacation. You can find the best accommodations at Lycia villa rentals. It is where you can see the Award Winning Resort, the amazing and award winning Hill View Gardens and the spectacular and breathtaking sea views holiday villas.
I'm really looking forward to my next vacation.

Korean Society
In fiercely competitive Korean society, signs play a crucial role, alerting customers to the location and nature of businesses. It's not surprising to see many restaurants, PC rooms, noraebang (karaoke) in the same area. . One must never lose out to a neighbor. It's the basic mentality at work, so if one may not be able to win, at least one will not fall behind.
Nowhere in the world other than Korea would you find as many churches with steeples! As if there's an unspoken agreement, churches occupying space in commercial buildings maintain steeples in slab roofs. Just imagine the sight of three or four steeples on the same rooftop. At night, they transform into a forest of red neon crosses. In fact, one might even ask if the entire city is a graveyard because of the many red crosses. It's another prime example of the Korean temperament that if others do, I must do, too! If you have red neon cross, I will also put one.
Whenever there's a demonstration, there's always someone shaving off all of his or her hair. The demonstrators commonly tie red bandanas around their heads and raise their fists in the air. They also break out the drums and gongs, they follow the head "cheerleader" in movements and they sing songs, dance and shout slogans in unison.

Lead Network
Everyone wants on the lead. When we are leading in a group we are the boss and we manage things on our own but we need the cooperation of others who belong in that group. When we are at work, it's hard to avoid the competition among workers and we can only stay away from it if we are the boss. And if you're the boss you can lead or build your workers relationship. If you are interested, try this Business Loan Leads or personal loan leads where you can help others and earn at the same time.
Why do people having a hard time in finding a job? It's because they don't know their chances are. There are lots of ways on how to become successful in life. We waste lots of time if we don't know about this Business Financing Leads. There are lots of people out there who are willing to help you succeed in life without paying any cents and you find some of them online. The Equipment Leasing Leads are also waiting for you.

Apartment Disease
Korea is covered with sprawling apartment complexes throughout the country, whether it is in a metropolitan area or a rural area. With limited space, if everybody wanted to live in a warm cozy home, what would it take? Although you can't smell fresh soil, apartment would be the only alternative. People live in apartments with the same size, design and layout shared by their neighbors. Given that the Koreans cannot stand falling behind others, anything different immediately catches the eyes of neighbors. Like when you get a wide screen TV, the rumors would then fly all over the apartment complex. It would spread like a plague so fierce competition ensues and other will get wider than your new TV.
People send their kids to all kinds of after-school tutoring programs like English lesson, piano, art, taekwondo, school subject lesson, computer, etc. to keep them ahead of the pack. The Koreans have taken their "equal profit sharing" mentality to a whole new level, which in this modern day has taken on a new name "Apartment disease". If the kid next door goes to tutors after school, they can't just let their child sit at home and play.

I'm Back to Korea
I came earlier than I expected. I missed my dog, my house, my plants, Korean programs specially drama, korean food and lots of things about Korea except the weather. We changed our flight so we came from our vacation a month earlier. It didn't stop snowing from the night of our arrival until yesterday. At least the weather is good today. It was sunny so some snow melted and it wasn't too cold.
My hubby said if the weather is good next week, we'll go out to see some sightseeings here in Korea. We visited some countries on our vacation so it's time for Korea. I hope it's not too cold or I'd rather stay home and watch tv or talk to my friends online.

Nothing Special
It's been a long time again. It's just now that I've got time to visit my blog. I'm on vacation now and I'm spending every minute of my time looking around and enjoying the beauty of the world. When I come back I will share more pictures that I saved on my computer. Too bad that I didn't post them before I left. I was too busy preparing for my vacation. I should have put the pictures so I can share them when I could get time.
Anyway, I was worried when I saw on cable tv here about what happened in Korea while I'm on my vacation. I thought there would be war between North Korea and South Korea. I hope it won't happen. And I hope everything will go well. A few years ago they said that the two countries will unite it happens in an opposite way. I dunno what the reason is but I hope they will have a good relationship.

Visiting My Parents In Law
I heard that my father in law was sick so I visited him yesterday. I haven't seen him for a long time so I thought it was time to meet him. I traveled for many hours and it was my first time to go there alone. My hubby was busy so he allowed me to leave by myself. I thought my father in law was in bad condition and I was so glad that his disease wasn't that serious as I expected. I decided to stay in his house for a week because I wanted to help my mother in law in taking care of him but because he was okay so I just stayed there for 2 days and one night and I went back home. I was so nervous and worried for the first time but then everything went well because of my sister in law. My sister in law asked my father in law if I could sleep in her house and he gave us the permission. I spent my night in my sister in law's house. I had fun with her. We drank and chat until 3a.m. We talk about a lot of things and I learned a lot from her.
In the afternoon, I went back to my parents in law's house to tell them that I would leave for home. I didn't do anything. I just had dinner with my in laws and drank with my sister in law and went back home.

Superstar K2 Winner
The Superstar K2 Winner is no other than Ho Gak. He's really good. I think he's much better than other singers. I expected him to win although I was still confused if John Park could beat him because John Park is loved by the ladies. Ho Gak is so lucky because besides from the car and money, he will also sign a contract to become a singer and this month, he's going to Macau with some other singers to perform there. I'm so happy for him. Go go go Ho Gak! Fighting!
Our Next Trip
My hubby and I love travelling. We travel not only here in Korea but also in some parts of the World. Among the countries that I've been, Australia is one of my favorites because of its beautiful attractions, delicious food and the people are very kind. Opera House and Blue Mountain are one of the most wonderful places that I'd love to visit again and again.
Hubby and I have been to many countries and this month, we're going to leave for some other Asian countries. My hubby had so much fun in Thailand so we're going back there. I'm glad that he hasn't made a reservation for our flight yet because I've just found the cheap flights online.
There are on sale, week's hottest fares and deal of the day and you can even compare the international airfares so you can make sure that you can get the cheapest flight for your trip. I'm so excited on our next trip and I'm happier because I can save more for our flights.
