Travel to Seoul

My journey started at 4 pm in Wil. From there I traveled to Zurich airport and took the plane. I had to make a stop in Istanbul. Planned were 2 hours but the connecting flight had a delay so I waited 5 hours. I was really tired but I also couldn’t sleep. Luckily I somehow managed to connect my laptop with the wifi (It was more difficult then usually) and I downloaded a few movies.

During my flight the alarm on the phone of my neighbor went off but she had hear headphones on and was asleep so i tried to weak her up by gently pocking her arm. After 10 pokes she finally woke up and I tried to explain that her phone was ringing but she still had her headphones on and told me „yes she could hear her music its all fine“ so tried again and this time she just showed me her tongue. I felt humiliated. She later understood what happened and apologized but her tongue still haunted me in my sleep.

When the plane landed in Incheon it was 9 pm. I took an airport bus till Changdeokgung Palace. From there I tried to find my hostel. A map was given to me and it seemed fairly simple to find it but it was already dark and the small streets weren’t visible on the map so the first road i took was the wrong one. With a few more wrong turns I was able to find my location. The reception was already closed but they left a key and a note with some information on the desk. I went up to my room. There I met Jamie (25, Colombian). He was really friendly but after half an hour of talk I decided that it’s time for bed. For some odd reason he didn’t start the AC so we had a room temperature of maybe 300° but luckily I survived. The next morning we both thought that maybe it’s a good idea to turn the AC for the next night.
