changing with the seasons



So recently I've made a big zipcode change. A 14 hour plane ride across the Pacific on Singapore Airlines (14 hours worth of their very extensive movie library) and I find myself back in Seoul.


A lot of people asked me why I chose Korea to study abroad and although there's a litany of reasons the biggest factor was the overall aesthetic of the country. Seoul's a city dictated by neutral hues (my favorite: black, white, grey, and beige) and sartorial heroes in bombers and white sneakers. It's literally a city after my own heart.

It's been about three weeks since I've arrived. Before I could really even unpack my program sent me an hour out of Seoul (by plane),  and this time I got to go to Jeju along with my program (the UCEAP program) as well as explored the hubs around Yonsei University (Sinchon + Edae). I'm going to be here until mid-June and am slowly crossing things off my bucket list. Unlike last time, where I felt the need to see all of this city in 10-days, I'm hopefully going to be able to blog about each place with more depth.
