Photos from Jeju Island

Monday, May 3rd, 2010

Here are some fotos from my short trip to Jeju Island, between South Korean and Japan. This island is a very popular holiday destination in Korea, and it has some beautiful nature: crystal clear waterfalls, nice beaches and a volcanic mountain: “Halla-san” (1950m), the highest peak in South Korea. Of course i had to climb it, together with thousands of highly equipped Koreans who showed off their latest and greatest trekking gear on a very well paved highway to the top. Anyhow we had a great relaxing time on the island.

Weekend in Seoul

Friday, April 16th, 2010

I spent last weekend in Seoul. It’s the world’s second largest metropolitan area with about 20 million people and life here is really fast and high-tech. But nice people, beautiful girls and great food make it very enjoyable at the same time. Anyhow i was glad to have a break from Japan.
