Day One



Here is me looking at the eclipse with four pairs of sunglasses on.

After 24 hours of non stop travel, Craigifer and I arrived in Seoul last night, we took a bus to our hostel and immediately passed out. This morning we woke up at 645 am - holy moses and wondered around the streets aimlessly, enjoying all the novel foreign shops. And then much to our surprise we saw a SOLAR ECLIPSE, random I know but what luck! Later we walked up a giant hill to gaze upon a beauteous temple and I was yelled at 3 different times by random korean bystanders, for what I still dont know. Well one time I think the lady yelled at me for trying to save a worm from burning to death in the sun.

Ok so the feelins part of the journey: I am pretty much blissed out. I am so out of my mind happy that I cant even take everything in. I love to travel, I love adventures, I love my boyfriend and I love those cute little asian caricatures on every ad. I am living my dream and it feels absolutely amazing. I feel so so so so lucky and thankful. This is the best thing that I've done with my life thus far and if it all ended now I'd still feel pretty lucky. Day one, great success!
