Hey there.. sorry for the wait. have been super busy these past few days. A lot of things have been happening.. like.. my life.. hahaha.. kidding. 


so, to continue about our trip, on the third day kami amik metro ke Nopo lagi dari Haeundae sebab Nopo je ade bus terminal yg terdekat. Destinasi seterusnya ialah, Seoul. weehuuu.. 2 months before travelling, Natalie has been planning our activities once we arrive in Seoul. so, our first activity was camping in Pocheon district at Christmas Eve. Since Tommy is the only person in our group who celebrates Christmas, we would like him to feel merry about our trip.. so we decided to celebrate together lah. 

But first, 

  • from Heaundae we took metro to Nopo. 
  • from Nopo, we took a 5 hour bus trip to Seoul
  • it was a long ride. seriously
tngok ni   ..........

 



In Nopo, we encountered a very interesting scene. There were these two armies, whether they were about to go to camp or they just got back from camp. either way, this one army he started to stand straight in the middle of the bus terminal while these two women who i assumed were probably his mom and aunt, were standing in front of him. He started singing to what i again assumed was their camp song. He sang proudly in the middle of the crowd. After finished singing he knelt down and bowed to his mother a couple of times, and the crowd started clapping hands and what not. It was beautiful. I was touched too. amazed even to be witnessing that kind of respect and love. 

anyway... after 3-4 hoours of bus drive.. we finally stopped somewhere.. i dont remember the name of the place though.

we arrived in Incheon terminal at about 7 pm that night. ni pemandangan di RNR k


The Tommy was waiting for the Nisa finally they got together. sigh.. i was the fifth wheel! the FIFTH WHEEL for crying out loud... i got over it fast though.
We went straight to Itaewon to check in for the night before heading to Pocheon the next day. 

Hostel: Itaewon Inn one night bunk bed per person KRW12,000 (RM41+)


suasana dlm mixed dorm room
ni muka penat tunggu the Tommy before berangkat ke supermarket beli brg utk camping @ Itaewon inn lobby

sambil tunggu kita stroll around Yongsan district cari 7Eleven.. rasa nk mkn something coklet. sweet tooth iihihihik

pemandangan sekitar Itaewon Inn aka Yongsan district

cantik kan.... winter in Itaewon. tp masa ni snow xde lagi. temperature around 0' Celsius

tadaaaa hehehe... real brownie kata ny.. sedap sungguh.. sebab ni kot lepas balik Malaysia trus berkecimpung mengade nk bake brownies sendiri hemaigad..
Untuk brownies tu i spent another KRW3,900 (RM13+) mcm tu.. i don care.. i like it.. then off to the supermarket...perjalanan nk g supermarket ya ampuunnn.. jauh aihh.. da la traffic jam.. sbb da ptg.. n org ramai da balik dr ofis kn.


long story short.. ktorg beli beef, sosej segala jenis bawang lagi, perasa bulgokgi, air, n etc

Risto gila seaweed! kemaruk dia makan bnda tu. tp mmng sedap. 

oh yes.. nk gtau.. kalau da g supermarket kt korea..susah nya nk save duit.. sebab rambang mata.. sebab bnyak sgt benda yg dijual yg xde kt Malaysia.. n dgn berbagai2 jenis lagi.. Roti saje da mcm2 jenis..seaweed saje dgn variety ny n berbagai2 size dan ketebalan. hemaigad,... susah hati.. bru 4 hari kt Korea.. duit tinggal bape je.. 

nampak tak tu anak-anak. yang best ny, dia x bagi plastic beg after shopping.. dy soh kita balut sendiri kotak recyle kt hujung supermarket tu n letak brg kita dlm kotak.. sgt environmental friendly

 Gigih the Tommy cari kotak yg baik punyer utk letakkan barang. utk camping ni sorang bayar KRW20,000 (RM69.59). Utk camping tent semua, the Tommy belanja.. waaa... chang u very muche... 

seronok beronok shopping barang makanan.. makan je hepi. mane tak gemok. worth it!

nak tengok tak tempat camping kita?? yayyyy.

this is our tent from outside view at night -3' C


im like.. whatttttt

ade one king size bed siap berbantal dan selimut tebal. one mini tent. and another bunk bed on top of the mini tent. aiyoo...ni mcm drama korea da. org kaya g camping.

as you can see, ade 5 sleeping beg atas katil tu cukup utk kami berlima..sedih tido atas tikar heater yg mlm ny mcm xde function sbb terlampau sejuk. bangun pagi berpeloh2 sebab heater at maksimum. belakang badan mcm kna panggang.

saya optimis. letak satu lg sleeping beg sebelah masa tido kot2 ade Lee Min Ho menyelinap masok tent tgh mlm buta

peti sejuk pon ade... xtau la camping ke ape ni. this is cheating hahaha

x lupa.. dlm khemah ade heater! mmng manja betul yg g camping kt sini haha. syiok. tapi yg sdang berselimut ni keja dia amik gambar je. 

siap ade oven ok.....

da habis me'WOW'kan tempat tido kami.. semua org pun bergerak utk menyediakan mkn mlm.. mkn mlm barbeque yayyy!! walaupun sejuk..akan ku tahan. baju tebal lapis 3 pasang. x cukup rupenya.. redhooo

nk tengok tempat kami barbeque?? 


kat luar khemah ade tempat barbeque. setiap khemah ade. sgt mewah for the type of survival camping haha.. seronokkkkk

ni la tmpt mkn kt luar. imagine camping kt sini masa summer.. ee best!!

tempat barbeque.depan tmpt mkn n tent. 

after abis berbungkus2 seaweed.. its time for real foodeee

Natalie was trying her first beef bulgokgi (if im not mistake). she did a hell of a good job. sedap beef panggang. yummmm kecur air liur balik da





very happines walaupun cuwoooo. it was so cuwoooo

and then everyone was happy with full tummy!!!! preparing to sleep to wake up to a suprise the next morning. all of us got presents from secret SANTA!! haha.. actually sebelom fly ke Korea da janji nk exchange gifts during Christmas nti. so. semua org cabut undi. and i got Tommy's name. so saya kena la cari hadiah utk the Tommy. aaaaa.. sape dpt nama saya!!?? exciteddd




semua gembira masa bukak hadiah.. thank you Miss Santa. i got Face shop Hand cream from the Natalie..very thoughtful of her. ihihik. sukaaa

we got a light breakfast that morning and ready to go back to Itaewon. i got the best memory in Pocheon!
