Day 1

The day started chill. I woke up at 9 and met another workaway girl her name is lea (I think). After a small breakfast I went on my way. I chose to go right at an intersection and from there always straight without purpose. After a while I saw the Namsan Tower (TV). So I decided to go there. It took me around an hour to get close. The Tower is surrounded by a park in which you can wander around. On the trails in the park there are a few spots where you can workout. Normally it’s just attended by older people but today this young model was there as well so he quickly made 3 pull ups with his bag and then went his way. I think they are still talking about him.

I came to conclusion that I should head back to the hostel. On my way back I grabbed myself a beer and some Korean snacks. Back I wrote my first entry for the blog and rested for an hour. At 4 pm I went on another stroll. This time I headed in the opposite direction. There are a few hills surrounding Seoul. I was completely alone on top of the hill so I was able to make some pictures of myself (I usually don’t because I think I look like an idiot). The view was stunning. You were able to look over the whole city. I continued my walk back down and into the city after a quick stop at a small convenience shop I encountered my first problem with Seoul. There are almost no goddamn bins. I am really unable to understand how they keep everything so clean. Do they take every single thing back home? It stays a mystery. After 500 m I finally found one.

The hammock next to me just spilled my beer over the keyboard, not happy.

So thats pretty much it for today. I walked 23km and sweated like a dumbass and I think it will get worse the next few days but better then rain. My mission for the next days is to go to specific places I looked up beforehand and to find some friends. Fingers crossed.
