Gwangju and Yeosu

As I mentioned in an earlier post I traveled to the cities Gwangju and Yeosu. The reason I ended up in these cities is thanks B and her family that came to visit. Her dad, stepmom, and younger brothers were in Korea and I had the pleasure of meeting them. In one weekend we went to both cities, so Saturday/Sunday was Gwangju and Sunday afternoon was Yeosu. Me and B took a train back to Daejeon Monday morning because we had work. 
Gwangju
Gwangju was awesome! We visited with B's stepmom's childhood friend. She had a beautiful house in the country side. It was surrounded by mountains and forests and there was a small river next to it. They raised chickens and rabbits there and had a big, white fluffy dog. The roof could be used as a deck and you were able to climb some stairs and sit on it. It really was a gorgeous area we were in, away from the busy city center. But telling you about it really doesn't do it justice, so it's picture time! 












Yeosu 
Our next adventure took us to Yeosu where B's stepmom's parents lived. Yeosu is a city on the coast so there's a pretty cool beach there. Their house was beautiful too! You could also go up to their roof and from there you could get a great view of the beach. The couple was very nice and treated us to dinner at this restaurant across the street. Later, me and B took a night stroll along the boardwalk by the beach. We discovered a water park and decided we need to go when the summer comes. Well, this trip was in like February/March. It was a really nice night out. The city was beautiful and I definitely want to visit it again. I especially want to go to that water park, it looked awesome! Get ready for another bombardment of pictures!









 
There ya go folks! Those were my adventures with B and her family! Thanks for reading ^^*

Epic show by EPIK High

Ok, yes the title is really corny and dorky but whatever it was an epic show. Now before I get into the story of the night let me explain who EPIK High is...get ready for a wiki copy and past lol :
Epik High (Hangul: 에픽하이) is a South Korean alternative hip-hop group fromSeoul, composed of TabloMithra Jin andDJ Tukutz. The group is known for combining different styles of hip hop, along with different musical genres and collaborations on each album. 
Here's some of my fave songs from them:
And there you have it folks! I am a big fan of theirs so when I heard this new club was opening in Daejeon as they would be performing I was ecstatic to say the least. However, the thing that made this even more fantastic and boosted it to epic status, was that I saw them for FREE! That's right, free. You see the club that was opening wanted to be popular among foreigners as well sooooo they let all foreigners in for free!
I will post a link to B's, aka Bianca, video vlog about it once it's done. I took some videos as well but I haven't quite figured out how to get them on here. Apparently blogger doesn't like the format my iPhone puts them in.

Eons later....

I'm soooo sorry to anyone who follows the blog. I know I've been MIA for quite sometime. Well needless to say ALOT has happened in the time I've been gone. I've seen a Kpop group I like, traveled to Gwangju and Yeosu, finished out my contract, had a week vacation in Thailand, moved to a new area in Daejeon for my new job, and during this all had some dating adventures. I promise that soon there will be a post about each of these random events of my life but maybe not for another week lol I apologize for my slacker-ness.
