Day One

Trip is off to a brilliant start :)
Slept from 9pm to 2am- found myself awake in bed, minus my shirt (was very hot and apparently unknowingly took it off in my sleep) and my door was mysteriously open. I definitely thought I shut it. Lovely. Nothing says 'hello' to your new neighbors like a nude display on the first night! I sat in my room bored to tears and sooooo thirsty from 2-6 and then decided to go outside and walk around. Yes, alone-- I wasn't trying to leave my block, just seriously needed a drink! I think this might be one of the safest places on earth, seriously. Went into a shop and started collecting loads of drinks to buy and all of a sudden I see a familiar face :) Another girl was also unable to sleep and there she was. How funny that we'd both end up there at 6am, right? So I suggest we jog around the area while everyone sleeps since nothing opens until 9 anyway. We were seriously like 1.5 miles away when a torrential downpour occured! Not a cab in sight (apparently everyone in Seoul sleeps in), we wait 20 mins and then I'm like "we're already soaked let's just jog back and enjoy the rain", so we did-- laughing the whole way :) Think I'm going to the spa later to experience the whole 'bath house' thing and going to set up an accupuncture session. Terrified of needles, but hey when in Seoul... xx
