Kamsahamnida, South Korea
November 2, 2017 Just like that, my friend and I wrapped up our South Korean adventure as we spend our last full travel day here in the land of K-Dramas, KPop and Oppas. *Deep breath*.

If only I had the luxury of time, I would have spent the entire day simply walking around the vast park, breathing in the sea, the mountains, and the pine breeze.
