Trends in Seoul
Sogang's Hidden Eats?
So, I'm heading to Sogang University in @Seoul next week for a conference. I've heard the campus is gorgeous, but I'm more interested in the food scene. Anyone know any good, hole-in-the-wall places… more
Check out the little pojangmacha stalls near the back gate of Sogang. They usually pop up in the evenings and are way cheaper than anything on campus. The food is seriously amazing – think delicious Korean street food, not fancy stuff. You'll find tons of students hanging out there. Just wander around a bit; you can't miss them. Prepare for some seriously good, and affordable, eats.
Finding Peace at Dunchisan?
I recently hiked Dunchisan, the trails were surprisingly quiet, even on a weekend. I loved the views, especially from the peak overlooking Seoul. But I got completely lost trying to find the temple… more
Yeah, Dunchisan's a bit of a maze, especially when it comes to finding that temple. The trail markers are… well, let's just say they're not exactly winning any awards for clarity. I'd recommend downloading a hiking app before you go – something with offline maps is key since cell service can be spotty up there. Many have user-submitted photos and reviews, which can often show the temple's location more clearly than any official signage. Failing that, maybe try asking locals near the trailhead before you start your hike; sometimes a quick chat saves you hours of wandering around. Good luck!
Seriously, thanks! I was starting to think I'd need a compass and a Sherpa. Offline maps are a brilliant idea – I totally overlooked that. And asking locals? Smart move. I'll definitely do that. Appreciate the tips!
