Film hunt afternoon!

I've been busy during the past few days because I'm arranging things that I will need for my trip next week. However, last Saturday, my schedule was not that busy so I was able to join a film canister hunt in the Lomo Gallery. Originally, my reason of going there was to pick-up the films and buy new ones too but Min Seon told me they were having that event on the afternoon so since I had time, I joined. :)










It was a new and fun experience because I got to meet new lomographers from Seoul. :) My group didn't won but we got a lot of freebies anyway. Hehe These are all taken while we're having the hunt. I used the Lomography X-Pro film for the first time and I was pretty happy of the results. :)

































These are my teammates, Christina and Hyun Jee, making wacky poses for the Lomo Gallery account, hehez :)

Every cloud has a silver lining

I'm supposed to meet with Suyen again today since its their last day here in Korea. We decided to meet in Gyeongbok Palace where they are scheduled to go in the morning. However, their tour schedule somehow went differently so we didn't get to meet. Even though I was already in the area, and we are already talking over the phone. :( So instead of sulking over what didn't happen, I just made the most of where I was. I witnessed the changing of guards ceremony again (which was cool by the way) and then walked til I reached the National Folk Museum. We didn't go there during our field trip last semester despite it being around the palace.



















Then I walked and walked, til I surprisingly reached Samcheong-dong. Yay! Its synonymous with Bukchon because they both preserve the Korean traditional landscape with Hanok villages which makes it a good tourist spot. I've been wanting to go there for a photowalk and to try one of the cafes too. :) The cafes and galleries around the area are so trendy and sophisticated but still most of them still maintain the Korean vibe so walking around is very relaxing and comforting. Hehe. I was able to try in Cafe 5Cijung which I will blog about later on. :)

























From today, Samcheong-dong is already one of my favorite places in Seoul. ♥

Beyond Yeokgok streets

One Sunday afternoon, I decided to take a different path going back to my dormitory. I passed by the mini-park-slash-playground where old and young people gather and play (yes, old people play some kind of boardgames there, hehe) and spent their afternoons with.


















So it was a lovely day for me. ;) How did you spend your Sunday afternoon?
