Hi everyone!
It's been awhile since I last updated my blog. I kinda feel bad about the lack of update but since I moved back to Indonesia, I finally have time to sit down and get things done (such as writing a blog post like this).
I understand this may have been a long overdue blogpost, looking back to my South Korea trip, it's been exactly 8 months since I went to South Korea. It's weird because I would often wrote about my trip 8 months after I came back (literally every trip, I guess I need to be better at this).
Okay, cut to the chase.
Planning a 2-weeks trip to South Korea.
First of all, when my friend and I was planning a trip to South Korea, we tried our best to stick to the itinerary but we slacked off and skip many places or found new places on our adventure. That's the point of traveling, isn't it?

Of course, this itinerary wasn't entirely look like what we have perfectly planned. As you can see, we missed quite a few of famous tourist spots such as Namsan Tower, Itaewon, Hangang river, Gyongbokgung Palace, etc.
During the trip, we tried our best to fit it all, but it was full on and my friend and I agreed we should take it slow and take it all in. I was lucky to have an understanding travel partner and we both decide things together so none of us felt left out. At the last minute, we decide to leave some touristy spots out and take it easy. We were lost in shopping too much, but we ain't sorry for it.
This itinerary might look messy, but it was what I did in South Korea :)
More details about each destination blog post is coming! Hopefully won't be too long
