My last day of school this week is Wednesday. I will have the 1st, 2nd and 5th off of October, for Korea's Chuseok celebration. Chuseok is like the Thanksgiving of America but it is geared more towards honoring one's ancestors and probably a bigger deal here than T-Giving is in the States.
I haven't been very good the past few days about making new posts, but I will update you all my Chuseok travel plans soon. I will be heading to the Jeju islands along with Busan, so it will be a busy 5 days!!
This past weekend I was in Seoul on both Saturday and Sunday, and spent both days at the Dongdaemun Market. It is a giant shopping area where you can hit up the department stores, or go to the area where you can haggle. I opted for the .......... (sorry, I had to take a 5 minute break to go on a mosquito-killing binge) .. anyway, I opted for the clothing market where you haggle. It was a lot of fun!! I was a little worried I'd get taken but it ended up being OK, though I got much better rates on Saturday than Sunday.
Gotta go for now, class tomorrow in the early morning! I'll post soon on my upcoming travels.
