I'm finally back!!! Well, for this 12 days trip, I spent $1900 in total ($1000 on air tix & accomo + $600 on food & travel + $300 on entertainment & gifts). Yes, with this amount of money, it would be more worth to go for a travel tour, where I get to stay in luxurious hotel and being served good food in high-class restaurant. However, it won't allow me to experience walking 10+km on the street of Seoul everyday, looking at the maps, finding directions on our own, asking the locals for help, talking to the taxi-drivers, bargaining with the stallholders, etc. Basically, we decide when to wake up, where to go, what to eat, we do watever we want. So I really do enjoy the experience. =)
.
But if you ask me how fun was the trip? Not really. It's not about the place but the group of ppl that I went along with - my cousin, my cousin's friend & her friend. I can't get along well with all 3 of them. Don't get me wrong, it's not that we argued over things and hated one another. =) It's just that the stuff they talked and laughed about was not "my kind" of topics. I don't discuss topics on ways of getting to sleeping transitions, past admirers, etc. I don't laugh over silly boring jokes. I don't sing aloud eng & chi songs on streets. I don't go crazy over cute notebooks and bookmarks. I don't rush through fashion street without entering a single shop. I don't sleep at 5am in the morn & wake up at 12 in the noon. So yeah, while the 3 were laughing all their way, I was sorta in my own world. Despite all this, I still do appreciate them for accompanying me for the 12 days. They r great, seriously. =)

The following link is a slideshow of photos we took during the whole trip. I can't put all of them here as they are over thousands of pics, enjoy =) :
