    I spent two weeks in Korea in August (mostly in Seoul but also two nights in Busan) and had a wonderful time, it's one of the few places I've been to that I would go back to again and again.

    Hey Shaun! Isn't it wonderful to find a place you really connect with and want to visit again and again? The best feeling. Sounds like you had an amazing visit in August. We didn't get to Busan but would love to return and visit there too...and see more of Seoul because it felt like we just scratched the surface...

    @@EileenAldis I had initially booked a hotel for 4 nights in Busan but on my 3rd morning there I was alerted to the fact that typhoon Hinamnor was due to hit the area within the following 48 hours or so, needlessly to say I cut short my time there and jumped on the KTS straight back to Seoul. I'm so glad I did because the area got really badly hit the following day, watching it unfold on TV was scary. By the way, if you do ever get to Busan DO NOT stay at the Hotel Almond just a short walk from the station, take my word for it ok.

    I recommend Sungsu-dong. There are Seoul-sup(Seoul forest) where are huge forest park like Central park at New York. Also there are so many cafe, restaurant and various store near to Seoul-sup and Ttukseom and Sungsu subway stations. You can see very new trend of young people in Korea. And you can go out to Han-gang(Han river) easily to walk or ride bicycle.

    Never been. If I was limited to one place to visit it would be Old Seoul -I love the old parts of cities so much more interesting than modern boring office blocks. If I got a second choice it would be the library- I used to visit the British Library in London 2-3 times a yearso Seoul's also looks fascinating. Nice to see your happy smiling faces and hear your lovely laugh.

I've been watching a lot of travel videos lately and what I dislike the most about some of these travel vloggers are all the unnecessary fluff they include in their videos, like getting off the train station and walking to the hotel, giving a tour of their fancy (or crappy) hotel, riding the hotel elevator and walking out of their hotel, etc. Who cares? Show me the top sights to see, things to do, where to get good food and their cost, interaction with locals, etc.

    Oh. My. Goodness. Hmm how much did I know about Seoul..well apart from being the host of a Summer Olympics ('88?), that's basically the extent of it. lol I cannot get over (among other things) the Meerkat Cafe! How adorable are they! The belly rubs! And all the other critters in that place! The library is otherworldly . Those sky high books appear to be unreachable! There must be a way to access them. And yes Eileen, you do look like a princess in the Hanbok. Absolutely fascinating. Nope as you may guess I've never been. Sure as heck would go on a bucket list.

    Hey Scott! It totally needs to go on your bucket list! We need to go back and see more because we just scratched the surface! You're right that the library is AMAZING. You know by now how much I love books and bookstores and libraries and and and haha. And meerkats are one of Marc's favourite animals so we couldn't miss that! He was envious that they kept crawling all over me and less on him. He did get a good belly rub in though! 😂

    Hi Elleen My Seoul must be different from your Seoul because I left Seoul 30 years ago I had lived in Seochon (west village), west side of Kyungbokgung. Thus I am familiar with that area like Kyungbokgung and Bukchon village. There was a huge traditional Korean house in Bukchon. The house has 99rooms and was managed by the government. One thing that I want to mention about Kyungbokgung is that the beauty of it is not the architecture. I studied landscape architecture in college. Traditional Korean architecture focuses on harmony. So the palaces in Kyungbokgung are well designed with the background of Bukkak and Inwamg mountains. Korean buildings and walls weren’t built tall or huge so that mountains behind the buildings can be seen. When you visit Kyungbokgung next time, enjoy not only the palaces building but also the background mountains. Thank you again for your wonderful video.
