For my last day in Korea (sob sob) I decided to have a relaxing day on the beach. But who am I kidding, it wasn't relaxing at all. I ended up walking all day as always. ANYWAY, before getting to the Incheon Island Beach (which is like only an hour from Seoul...Have I mention already that I love Seoul?) I stopped at the Airport (which is on the island as well) to take care of few things. My attention was caught by this window showing...things you can't take on a plane.
We'll start with "I'm asian, who am I trying to foul with this huge underpants bomb?"
And here we have a nice selection of drugs, in case you didn't knew enough about it.
I love how they are nicely displayed making shapes...
And here we have a huge ammount of cocaine in a Harry Potter book! You'll see magic reading that book alright...
Apparently North Korea stuff is also not a good idea in a South Korean airport...
Or a crossbow.
Aww so beautiful <3
But anyway, taking a bus to the airport I arrived at Eulwangni beach. Yay!
It looks like Cesenatico...10 years ago.
When I got there it was still morning. Perfect sunny day at the airport, as foggy as fuck on the beach. Yay!
Upset about the weather, I decided to take a walk to the near and hopefully sunnier Mnuido Island.
From the boat to Mnuido I could see this round green island. I wish I could have gone there...but it wasn't even mentioned on the map. Not sure if it was possible to reach it. Maybe during low tides. The doubt will stay with me till the end of my days.
Why wasn't the island on the map?
LOST
Nobody could speak any English around there. Not that I was bothered by that (like native English speaker turists...) actually I felt stupid myself. I started studying Korean. Anyway, not sure abuot what to do there, I just started walking into the island deep forest.
And then I found myself here, and I stopped. I was alone, no human souls around, I was probably the only one in the forest on that Monday morning. No sound whatsoever. Everything was still frozen, like the all world had stopped. And it could have as well, I wouldn't have noticed or cared. I felt like the only human on earth. It felt good. Always running, always in a hurry, sorrounded by noises all the time, it's hard to remind yourself of taking a break, and think. You'll be surprised about how much you can actually realize about yourself and your life in just few minutes of total silence and distance from the society that doesn't want you to think or realize anything.
Good thing I got back to society before realizing too much.
Not sure about this. Tombs? Drunk forest people spot?
The view was nice.
My time was limited and I wasn't sure where I was actually going gettin deeper into the forest. And despite the fact that being into the forest feels like home to me, I also know it's not a great idea to get deep into it by yourself if you are not familiar with it. So I got back and I walked to the island sailors village.
And I walked al the way acroos the island till I reached Silmido beach. NNNNiiiiiceeee
These seagulls are too lazy to fly from an island to the other.
I got back to Eulwangni beach in the evening since I had a room booked there. By the time I was back the weather was better.
So I enjoyed the sunset on the beach.
Ordering dinner wasn't easy.
But I managed
On the next morning, I woke up early to get to the airport. The beach was foggy again.
So that was my trip to Korea. Awesome.
Hope you enjoyed the blog, thank you for reading.
. I'll end with some nice shots of the islands.
