I’m back in Seoul after a few days in Busan, where I met up with my university friend Mika. She took a ferry from Japan and arrived on the same day. It’s been so much fun exploring the city together. We went to a hidden cold noodle shop that I read about on wingspoon (Korea’s yelp), walked through dark alleyways to find this late-night eatery inside a real cave, and found dinosaur footprints strolling through Igidae’s scenic walkway along Busan’s coastline.
In the meanwhile, we chatted about the idiosyncrasies of living abroad and our upcoming return to the U.S. Did I tell you I booked my flight home? I’ll be east-coast bound in time for Christmas.

I want that bowl of noodle soup. This place looks beautiful! Hope you gave Mika a hug for me.
It was such a good bowl of noodle soup. I gave Mika at least two hugs, and that woman can give good hugs!
Whatta view. Whatta lovely quote.
Thank you!
what a lovely place!
It really was a lovely trip.
Your photos are amazing! I just started following you and I’m really glad I found this blog.
Thank you! xx
OK, when I saw those statues I have to admit my brain went into a very dark corner and had a giggle.
The sea looks so nice in these pictures; your pictures make me want to run away in the world. I feel like I haven’t seen enough each time I come to your blog.
Haha, I’m glad someone else noticed *that* and thought it was funny. I did a double-take on my way out of the restaurant. :]
What is that soup called in the second picture? It looks so delicious!
It’s usually called “neng myun” (literally “cold noodles”) and this particular one from Busan is called “mil myun”
Wow, love the first picture! Very lovely blog you have!
Thank you! I loved how the umbrellas were lined up so orderly on the beach.
Your pictures amazing, as usual!
Gracias!
mmmmmmmmm, I love your food pictures! Always!
I’ve never eaten Korean food before, and now I desperately want to try it!
I wonder if I can take plane and visit Seoul for a day….hmmm
oh my, oh my ♥
