Any suggestions? I get most of my ideas for by bucket list from other bloggers and expats, so if you know of any amazing spots, leave me a comment!
I think I'll have to make one of these too. I'm sure having a goal will help me to decide on what I want to do when I visit Korea
ReplyDeleteDefinitely do -- between guidebooks and tourism site and even just other blogs, there's SO much to do here and making a list like this really helps keep me organized!
Deleteps. I saw your email, but it's been a busy week. I'll write you back soon! :)
You should visit the sheep cafe in Hongdae. And there's a reptile cafe near Coex!
ReplyDeleteReally cool section of your blog. I am going to Korea to teach in the public school system soon and first time stumbling upon a bucket list.
ReplyDeleteHi there, this post is so helpful! I am moving to Korea on February 20th to teach in Seoul, right off the Han River in the Yeoui-Dong area! I can't wait to explore Seoul and other parts of Korea, but I definitely want to do some traveling while there. Where are you located at now?
ReplyDeleteI'm in Chicago now, but still missing Korea, two years after I left. Have fun in Seoul!! And definitely take advantage of travel around Korea and to nearby countries! :)
