Exploring My Neighborhood

I FINALLY took some time today and walked around my neighborhood and took a few pictures. Yesterday, one of my fellow ICEV teachers and I had some adventures in Seoul. We went to Itaewon, which is an area full of foreigners living abroad, and also to Hongdale, which is near a university in Seoul. In Hongdale,there are lots of young Koreans and lots of things that young Koreans like to do- a very fun place, indeed. However, I was silly and didn't take any pictures. Ah well, there will be plenty of opportunity for that soon enough.


This early evening, I decided that since I've now explored Seoul, it would be silly not to explore the area around my apartment. Plus, I'm feeling more like a human less dazed and confused, so I finally felt unafraid of what lies behind my apartment door. My photography is more functional than anything wonderful or exciting. I especially wish that I had taken more/better pictures of the park that is right by my apartment. How excited I was to discover that there is a park amidst all this industrialization! I can't wait until it is warm enough outside to use it! I took a picture of the fish tanks because I love that there are fresh fish right on the street (and these tanks are everywhere). Also, I purposely waited to start my walk until the sun was soon to set so that I could get some pictures of all the LIGHTS! Still, not even everything was turned on when I took the photos, but you get a good idea of what the streets look like at night. More to come, I promise!
P.S. During my walk, I found a karaoke spot. I will be using it soon and often.
