Embracing Nature

Since lately, I've been having this "reconnect with nature" vibe, because I'm getting dissatisfied with the scene of my room and my desk every single day. So I decided to get out of the box and get some sunshine on my face. As for today, I chose to go to Seoul Forest to see some deer! Oyeaaa :P Its a bit farther from the center of the city and it took about more than an hour and a half to get there. When I got off the station, I walked for about 10 minutes before reaching the place. The wind was kinda strong and cold so I was really not happy during the walking part. Hehez.


 

 The park is too big if you wanna go around just walking so there are bikes available to rent. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to acquire that skill when I was still a child so I had no choice but to walk. My first destination was to the deer forest. It was a bit farther from the entrance so I had to walk for another 5 minutes more. When I got there, I saw the lovely creatures. They were being fed by other visitors who are also amazed by them as much as I am. They seemed so gentle and friendly. Despite my tiredness from the journey I took just to get here, seeing them like this, I knew it really was a good idea in the first place. 

 
  
  
   

After that, I went around other areas too. At first, I didn't have any problem walking around, in fact I found it enjoying. Hehe :) Seeing different breathtaking views of nature and other people walking around too, it was very relaxing.
 
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
However, after almost an hour doing it, my feet kinda got tired, and the wind was getting stronger too. Besides, it was getting late already, so I just rested for a bit in the plaza where you can find the famous sculpture of men riding horses. And there were other sculptures from different artists too. :)
  
 
 
 
  
 

Although I came back with a dead tired feet, my inner "traveler self" was very much overwhelmed. There is no exact word that can describe how contented I am with where I've reached today :") I wish I could do more of this often. Hehe :)
