Five Things to do in Seoul During Autumn
After months of planning, we finally pull off this travel to celebrate our 20 years of friendship! We initially just want any date during the peak of foliage until our schedules match the end of October. This means Halloween parties at night and scenic autumn tours at day. Let me share five things from our recent Seoul travel.
Nami Island of Love
This half-moon shaped island is fondly called the Island of Love from a popular K-Drama Winter Sonata. It’s easily accessible from Seoul but with 3 million visitors each year, expect random strangers on your photos.
Mt Seorak, South Korea
Seoraksan is the third highest mountain in South Korea best visited during Fall. It is a UNESCO heritage site 3-hours away from Seoul.
Brazil (Rio, Sao Paulo and Iguazu)
These are 2017 Snapshots of Brazil. I flew from the border of Argentina-Brazil in Fox De Iguacu to Rio ending in Sao Paulo. Rio’s all in all the perfect choice for a Brazilian holiday.
Mae Klong Railway
The famous old Mae Klong train market since 1905 outside Bangkok creates dramatic and stunning photos. Too many elements from the old colourful buildings, broken makeshift tents to random people on their daily lives. Local vendors line up their stalls along the tracks and rush to clear it when the train signals to pass.
The Amazon Rainforest (Peru)
The Amazon rainforest is the world’s largest tropical rainforest, home to different tribes and biodiversities.
The Amazon River (Peru-Brazil Border)
The Amazon River is the largest river in the world running on 6 countries – Peru, Brazil, Colombia , Venezuela, Ecuador and Bolivia! It accounts for 20% of Earth’s freshwater earning its nickname “The River Sea”.
Thong Lor, Bangkok
Thong Lor is one of the trendiest area in Bangkok. It’s a great place for a night out or just to hangout on cafes to read books, some homework or do people watching.
Hanoi Beer Street
The famous beer street in Old Quarter, Hanoi is a crowded place (elbow to elbow) full of local bars and restaurants with so many people sitting on low plastic /wooden stools. It’s also known as International crossroad drawing all locals and foreigners.
